    Balancing an LR Trophy

    Set the Ohme schedule to 100% and a long time into the next day for "ready by" (assuming you are on Octopus Intelligent or another smart Time of Use) Set the car to accept 100% Let it charge. The car will stop at 100% but also "balance" any additional charge that it coming in The charger will...

    Slow vs "Fast" charging confusion

    Exactly this - the 2nd release (not to use the word phase) of cars, only have single phase chargers, so 7kw is going to be maximum, even if the charger (3ph charger supplied by a 3ph power supply) and the cable has the rating and internal connections to do it. Easy way to tell is looking at the...

    MG4 LR 2024 issues.

    I have the bluetooth issue - pairing to an S21 Ultra - maybe lasts 2 or 3 trips Screen response isn't great, so with you, I try to avoid pressing anything when moving. Radio sometimes does not start (probably 1 in 10 trips) and does not show any channels, other times it starts muted, other times...

    HV Battery Shutdown

    Had a call from the other half a few weeks ago, she was sitting in a queue not going anywhere as the road ahead was closed for a cycle race, then all of a sudden the car shut down - not sure of error she told me on the phone at the time, possibly battery disconnected, possibly out of power - but...

    2024 MG4 updates

    unrelated, but a good thread to ask - is the "cross tail" lighting on all models or just trophy? Saw a standard car drive past the other night, and the "boot" lighting bar wasn't lit....

    Can you turn off headlights while parked ?

    When parked up, but unloading things at night, I always swipe the light toggle to the right, killing the "main" lights, and leaving DLRs on, so not the blind the neighbours opposite. If needing to turn lights "on" but it not bad enough weather for the Auto to kick in and nudge left on the...

    Little pockmarks on bonnet

    I would ask the dealer about it, especially since you had a dealer applied paint protection coating that they sold you (would protect against minor salt/droppings/paint wear)

    Indicators keep flashing (blind spot alert)

    Is this the Blind Spot feature in the mirror people are talking about. Or actually the indicators flashing? (is it just the wing mirror one flashing, or all of them?) I've noticed the latter when stationary at lights, and the lane next to me is moving...

    Wireless charging my phone

    If your phone supports wireless charging - just put it on the pad just above the gear selector, and it should start charging? (with a small notification ding pop up to say it is charging) There may be a menu option to turn this on/off, but it should be on by default. If struggling, is the...

    Balancing Charge with Octopus Intelligent and Ohme and MG4 Trophy

    There are rules around which boosted export tariffs you can use... Not totally sure, as I don't have Solar or a Battery, but I think IO is fine with the 15p, but normal Go is blocked from the 15p and gets a reduced export rate.

    Balancing Charge with Octopus Intelligent and Ohme and MG4 Trophy

    I go for 100% on the car, and required +10% on the Ohme... That way it will certainly continue to give power, and has the small chance of giving bonus cheap electric before 1130

    Drive Modes

    I have only set Custom up once when I first got the car... Used it for driving, then on the next visit, all of the settings had been reset to defaults - so have not bothered with it since. To clarify that is Custom being reset back to Normal drive mode, but when re-selecting Custom, they were...

    Charger + Octopus, recommended combos please.

    If you have Solar to add into the mix go for the Zappi, otherwise the Ohme works well

    Something positive for a change

    Thanks - I was going to get the missus to follow in the other car, on hands free, and see at what point the light comes on. As you don't want the brake to flash if you slightly lift off and are on -3 or -4, but then stronger regen should show the lights - just at what point does that happen...
