    A cautionary tale for MG 4 EV owners

    Good advice 👍......... and I do most of that already apart from the spanner !! You were certainly unlucky with the timing and circumstances of it all 🤷‍♂️ For 1, I keep the spare CR2032 fob battery in my pockets / wallet / bag near my keys, as a fully depleted fob battery probably won't let...

    First long road trip

    Hope you get the CCU fixed soon, sounds like a typical MG drawn out procedure from your other posts !! I usually do public charger start / stops from the app itself now, as long as I have phone signal. Sometimes the chargers card readers are faulty but will start with app.

    Wish list of MG4 improvements

    Reviews of the new MGS5 EV suggests that MG are listening. The new MGS5 has :- 1. Wireless Apple CarPlay / Android Auto 2. Buttons and Dials for volume and climate 3. A Custom shortcut you setup for all driver aids on /off options and then just turn it on each startup with a swipe down and one...

    MG4 X Power Vibe/Hum 65 to 75mph

    Unless it goes wrong of course and MG UK won't repair it under warranty 😉

    MG4 X Power Vibe/Hum 65 to 75mph

    What's stopping you then ?? 😉😊 MG UK and it's poor customer service, fob offs and dealerships are stopping me. I'd never buy an MG again, much as I love my Xpower 😉👍. This 63 page thread is testimony to that if you read it all !!

    MG4 X Power Vibe/Hum 65 to 75mph

    Well it would have been far far cheaper for me to lease my Xpower. I've lost over £14000 in depreciation in 18 months using PCP. Fortunately that loss is now capped by the optional final balloon payment. That would give me the equivalent of around £777 to lease per month and that would get...

    MG4 X Power Vibe/Hum 65 to 75mph

    Yep,, I'm one of them 😒🤷‍♂️. My only good point is that I bought mine on PCP and the optional final payment is now above 2nd hand values, so I'll gladly hand the car back in September rather than pay it and suffer a bigger loss. I can't believe it's nearly that time already ! Lesson learnt...

    Rusty brake discs painted.

    They look so much better for it 👍... something I definitely need to do on my 18 month old ones too. Two Winters have taken their toll.

    Our first long journey...

    I got 2.7 miles per kwH yesterday over a 105 mile trip on the A1(M). That's pretty typical for me travelling at just above the vibration speed range 😉. How fast do you drive on motorways to get 3.8 ??? There again Anon70 and I both have Xpowers so that may be the difference.

    What have you bought for your Xpower this week ?

    Wow 😁 .... never seen those before !! Had to Google it ... is it like a whistle ?

    Our first long journey...

    A good reason alone to get one IMHO👍...as well as the large number of chargers that Electroverse cover. It took me 3 goes (defective chargers) last week at EVpoint on the M1 to charge, but just the one correct ££ amount taken from cc (pending and then taken) after using the Electroverse app...

    Tomato Energy

    Not looking great :- https://www.ofgem.gov.uk/publications/tomato-energy-limited-provisional-order I really hope they can keep going ! I've had my first bill for February but not for March yet. I notice there are a few missing half hours in the MyWatts graphs and downloads on a couple of...

    Removal of XPower Caliper Covers

    Have you a link to them please ? I was thinking of changing to red although my car is going back to the finance company in September.

    MG4 X Power Vibe/Hum 65 to 75mph

    I know someone with a new Corse-e and LKA can be switched off by pressing one button 🤷‍♂️
