    V2L without the lights on

    Below is a screen shot of my post dated on the 17th May 2023. The update applied to our early Gen2 ZS EV LR and it necessitated an update to the BCM ( Body Control Module ). As you can see, the main aim of this update was to cure a problem of early models “bricking” and preventing the car from...

    V2L without the lights on

    There is an update that WILL allow the ZS EV to conduct V2L and NOT have the DRL’s still running, it was carried out on my car. It was linked in with the update that will allow you to stop the car charging from a A/C wall box, when you press the open button on the key fob and remove the cable...

    First road trip (Welsh coast)

    Will you be anywhere close to here ?. Tesco have chargers at this site, I know because I have seen them last year. Chargers are few and far between around that part of Wales. You could pop in and do some shopping while you are waiting, then set off for home ?.

    Winter Olympics

    Likely he will be in the new years honours list, looking like there will not be a lot of competition for one. Pity they don’t do a medal for 4th place, we would have a few more to show off. Close but no cigar as they say !.

    MG4 Undertray dip/bulge

    It’s tends to become a “known” issue, after they have checked to see if they can get paid for it strangely enough 🤣. Conducting warranty work never puts money into the till on the same day, unlike paid service work unfortunately. It can be a long drawn out affair.

    Wow

    Everybody is different and that is great !. Personally for me, one of the big attractions to owning an EV, is that it offers a really nice peaceful / stressless environment to drive in. Some easy listening playing low in the back ground is nice. I don’t want this peace to be corrupted by some...

    MGS5 in the wild?

    That is a cracking example TBF. It takes a lot of work / time & money to have a Stag in that condition, you have my respect my friend. I know the thread has gone a bit “off topic” but, sharing stories and experiences is what it all about really folks.

    Wow

    I know mine are all 2.5 Bar. But the L/H and R/H differ according to the App. The App reports the tyre pressure status as “normal” as you can see. Close enough for me 👍.

    New Owner - Passenger Doors Not Opening From Inside on MG5 Facelift – Normal or Fault?

    Given the number of cases reported and already dealt with, I find it hard to see that MG are in a position to refuse a claim. It’s a well known issue !.

    MGS5 in the wild?

    Sorry - Yeah typo. 1850cc for the standard Dolomite. I very nearly bought a Sprint about 3 months before I left the dealership. I had a tip off from my friend in sales, that it had been traded in for really cheap money, because it was running rough and needed some work. Probably needed a new...

    Wow

    Used our S5 today on a couple of different stretches of dual carriageways. The road surfaces varied between, not so great and pretty smooth. On the best sections covered with the low noise surface tarmac, at a constant speed between 55 - 57 MPH. I could definitely hear in the cabin, what sounded...

    MGS5 in the wild?

    The 1500 TC was a similar set up as used in the upgraded 1500 Spitfire, that also had TC’s. They also did a 1500 FWD model version. It was a bored out version of the original 1200cc Herald engine really. Increasing the power came at a cost thought, because they suffered from crankshaft rattle as...

    MGS5 in the wild?

    Dolomite Sprint !. Now that takes me back a good few years. Worked on a few of those in my time. They were car that flew under the radar. Small family saloon, quick though !.

    Parasitic drain on 12V battery

    That is spot on !.

    Maybe An Idea To Renew VED Before The Budget

    Yeah - It’s a complete farce tbh. My wife has a Fiat 500 that she absolutely loves 🤷🏻. It’s a 2015 petrol ⛽️ model and the VED is £20 / year. It’s low ( ish ) emissions, but very high compared to our S5 of course 🤣. £20 vs £195.00 takes some justification. It’s not about anything else, but a...
