Sounds odd, maybe there's someone on this forum who can help! If not, ask a main dealer, but my honest impression, is they are more driven on meeting sales targets than helping the people who make those sales targets happen.

Definitely, but why? Sounds to me like you need to reinstall the app and ensure you bind it to the correct car.

The only thing the app does better for me than on the MG4 is once charging schedule is set up, I just connect the charge cable and it does everything, faultlessly charging to the set 80% without need to set it up every time, just need to change the charge level when we go on a longer trip. But...

Something I've noticed on the MGS5 MG ismart app which differs from the MG4, when using the "Vehicle Status" menu, there is NO 12V battery reading as was with the MG4, this was very useful to keep tags on the 12V battery, especially when on holiday. Is this the same with other MGS5 owners or am...

Does the 12V battery charge when you recharge the traction battery? BTW like lots of other EV owners I also have a small jump starter which I keep under the seat, just in case the 12V battery drains, especially when parked for a few weeks whilst on holiday, bought for my MG4 when new 2 years...

OTA updates are probably close to the bottom of my wishlist, having a reliable, reasonable priced car is near the top, I won't be buying a Tesla or any other "prestige" wrapper, coz I too am retired and old school mean! Had more expensive cars when they could lower my income tax bill, but no...

Perhaps just a few of us are expecting too much for our miserly budget @tsedge? 🤣🤔😂

Longer range may be a thing to aim for, I virtually always charge at home, only on longer trips do I use public charging and then I try to stick with carefully chosen Tesla networks. OTA updates option appears to be available on the S5, if so will almost certainly be available on the S6, I've...

I emailed MG Customer service today using the email from @Ian Key, (thanks Ian) regarding the potentially dangerous Adaptive cruise control, I still don't know what if anything my local MG dealership did on the recent investigatory visit. MG's reply was as expected, but I'll wait for their...

Total agree, cost cutting in the extreme, a weird decision!

Thanks @Ian Key, I'll pop an email to them, not sure I'm going to get a satisfactory, or helpful response, but it's something they should attend to as a matter of safety, as my local MG dealer looked at the owners manual yesterday, which definitely states the steering wheel button is on & off...

UPDATE 2 Wasted half a day yesterday, after dropping off the MGS5 at the MG main dealer, picked up about 2pm, NO CHANGE, the intermittent ACC fault still there. Unable to talk to the service manager, I was told "I think they've updated a camera" Will call today, but I think I'll try shouting a...

Try Amazon that's where I got mine.

Was there a particular reason you opted for 4 years, apart from the (hopefully) lower payments! Had my MG4 trophy PCP 0% on a 2 year deal, paying £230 per month, which I think I've actually done well on, it ends next week and will be returned to Santander, the balloon payment is more than the...

My MG4 goes back anytime from next week when the final payment goes out to the finance company, I already have an S5 Trophy, paid cash, got a brilliant deal. No more 0% finance deals, nothing like they used to be.
