    Bings & Bongs & steering tugging returned

    Yes definitely Ian, but it's so strange to just loose volume and little else, but the more we learn about our computers on wheels, just like our (well some of us) computers and phones, we need to reset them occasionally, pity it doesn't pump the tyres up if we get a puncture, no doubt China is...

    Bings & Bongs & steering tugging returned

    A few day's ago and shortly after the Factory Reset on my S5, I lost radio volume, it was really strange, as I could change radio stations, volume and swap between DAB and FM etc, but nothing could be heard, except the car next to us at traffic lights which could be heard inside our car. 😂🤔 As...

    I still occasionally use CNT-ALT-DEL. I guess many have either forgotten or never heard of it 😭😂

    Bings & Bongs & steering tugging returned

    Just the head unit through factory reset, I have needed to to do a 12v reset before which needed disconnecting the 12v battery for a short period, but not necessary this time. But why this sudden hiccup in the electronics I wonder ??

    Bings & Bongs & steering tugging returned

    Mysterious return of the dreaded BINGS & BONGS for no apparent reason. Suddenly MG Custom Pilot wasn't doing it's job and I don't know why, steering tugging on lane keep assist and the awfully annoying bongs on over speed limit, despite being turned off in Custom Pilot. I tried resetting...

    MGS5 12 Volt Battery Issues

    I've done it twice on my S5 Terry, disconnecting the 12v battery to do a reconditioning charge messed up all memory bits and pieces as can be expected, but resetting is simple and other bits of upset to the general electronics and on screen crap seem to level themselves out after a couple of...

    Dashcam recommendations?

    Yes, I use the very useful USB port by the rear view mirror for my Viofo cam, it's so very neat with a very short angled cable, I've seen some VERY amateurish wiring jobs on dash cams, personally I couldn't live with some I've seen, neatness is crucial to me!

    Dashcam recommendations?

    Sounds a reasonable idea and of course having the booster pack to charge wont drain too much from the traction battery, But I'm happy with removing the permanent live altogether, nice to have the extra security, but not to keep having the 12v battery drain quickly.

    Dashcam recommendations?

    I had to re-wire my new S5, the battery kept going dead using a permanent live feed, in the end I used the USB C socket to the left of the centre rear view mirror cluster, such puny batteries on Ev's, couldn't cope, fingers crossed no problem since ripping out the permanent live!

    Don't go booking an expensive holiday just yet @MG Clive, I reckon your commission could be nearly 2 quid 😂
