Well I've found a solution - it seems to work but I haven't tested it much yet. It's from an AI search "Bluetooth issues with an MG5 when using a wireless Android Auto dongle". I can't find the exact phrase I used but here is the solution that worked: The "Clean Setup" fix: In your car unplug...

It's a Moto g54. I've tried a few suggestions from AI and I'll try some "start from scratch" resets tomorrow. It's obviously quite complex!

Thanks. So your phone is paired with the BT dongle to give you Android Auto. Do you also have your phone paired with the car infotainment centre? I wonder if you have to have one or the other, but not both

I replaced my MG4 EV with a 24 plate MG5 EV. I tried using the old Bluetooth dongle to connect my phone for Android auto use. That worked fine but incoming phone calls would often not connect to the infotainment audio, which is useless! So I'm back to connecting the phone via USB cable which...

Aha (why didn't I think of that - just following the app instructions...). That brought up a proper QR, which says the app is already bound - to another user's phone. So I tapped Force unbind, apparently it will be freed after 72 hours. Thanks!

MG5(FL) MY24 won't "Bind" when trying to install iSmart app. I can see the Bind QR code (doesn't look like a regular code though) - photo attached. When I scan from the app (on Android phone) the camera goes in and out of focus but that's it - no progress. Has anyone managed to do it?

Yes! I am not sure of the exact position, but when you have the Infotianment screen open to enable it, then it works (i.e. selects the manual word) only if the ACC stalk is in a certain position. I'll experiment a bit. Thanks! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Edit: To...

MG5 FL (MY24) manual speed limiter - how to? I'm new to the MG5 EV (FL) - I previously had an MG4 EV - on which I used the (manual) speed limiter just fine. Now I want to use the manual speed limiter on the MG5. But I can't enable it - on the Infotainment Vehicle screen I went to MG Pilot...

Ah - I am hoping to pass my IAM test (advanced motoring). And my observer is concerned that the high regen gives a somewhat jerky (abrupt?) deceleration. Switching to 2 is definitely smoother! It's the options that don't come up for the * buttons. It has Drive mode and something else (which I...

I'd like to set a shortcut button to change the Regen setting (because it sticks to 3!). I've seen people report that they can program the left shortcut button to do this - but I don't get that option. Is there another way?

Thanks

Can you tell me which dongle you used? Thanks

Yes, but does that mess up driver's phone calls if a passenger wants to play music?

Thank you Ian. Solved both issues! I hadn't spotted the rectangular slot in the phone "mat". Good video for the Autohold - now I can see it.

My 23 plate MG4SE replaces an ageing Fiat panda. I have a couple of questions and I'm sure there will be a few more to follow. Right now I want to set up Android Auto. It's working but I need to do a bit more to set it up - I'll work that out. My question is: how can I thread the USB cable up...
