    MGS5 owners manual - PDF

    I thought for a moment it was there.... There are two MG4 manuals - and for a moment it looked for all the world that the second one was in fact the MGS5 in disguise.....on closer inspection, it isn't. The two manuals are left hand drive and right hand drive versions of the MG4. Darn it -...

    Certainly am - and you picked the right colour imvho!!!!! The Tesla app works just fine - but you may not find that MG is included in the list of car manufacturers when you enter the car details. It used to be, but for some unknown reason, MG stopped appearing in the list. You'll need to enter...

    MGS5 Information & Reviews

    Have to say, I was driven home the other night, and I sat in the back. Can't say I experienced anything like what you describe. Loads more room than the MG4, and the seats were very comfortable. Which version of the S5 were you in?? My Trophy trim was just fine back seat-wise....

    MGS5 Information & Reviews

    I don't know if this us the reason, but when I've charged to 100%, and set the brake regen to 3, I get a warning message saying that there's limited brake regen performance. Never happened on the MG4, but it makes sense....battery at 100%, so no room for full regen. Might this be the reason...

    Three Months In An S5

    I thought that turning on rear demist was the only way to heat the door mirrors in just about every car I've owned that had heated door mirrors!!
