    Tesla mobile connector

    I don't think you're going get to get a better explanation than that really, hope that explains why the individual in the video you watched probably only observed a charging rate in the 6's after you factor in the above limitations and losses. It's a learning curve we all go through when...

    Tesla mobile connector

    There'll be people on here here who might know much more about the electricals on the mg4 but my rudimentary understanding is that the charger will try to deliver the maximum allowed by the onboard inverter. So if the inverter only allows no more than 6.6kwh or say 5kwh as an extremely scenario...

    Tesla mobile connector

    Yeah it's the only mobile charger I use and take with me on my travels. I didn't buy the red 32amp version/connector, I use the 16 amp blue connection at work and at campsites pitches with electric hook ups and the regular UK 3 pin plug one at havens and other destinations if needed.

    RRG MG Stockport - MG Dealer Discussion, Opinions & Experiences

    How bizarre, I was in in December on the mazda side and one of the team from the mg side recognised my car and knew I also had an mg4 and sought me out to say they've got the parts & authority for the sagging under tray issue and said they'd happily do it on my next service if I wanted it

    Disappointing winter range

    I have to drive a bit more conservatively when it's this cold, mines a 64Kwh trophy, and I'm getting just shy of 200 miles range in these temps. If you think our range is disappointing in these temps you wouldn't want the standard range with the lfp pack🫣

    Frozen Charging Port Door? (Flap)

    Mine won't open at the, think the pins frozen. Would trying to open it by using the boot manual release be likely to damage the pin, I've never had a look in there to understand how that mechanism works

    Frozen Charging Port Door? (Flap)

    Use red rubber grease instead of vaseline/petroleum based greases if you want the rubber to survive

    DIY enclosure for home storage

    Thanks. Your reply is well timed as it happens as I'm looking to build my enclosure this week now the mercury is forecast to tumble. What kind of heaters are they that you've used?

    Anyone been contacted by MG?

    I've had this letter delivered this morning, has anyone had anything similar. Wasn't sure if the long awaited software update that was touted by MG in response to safety reports is now being rolled out.
