There will be crash data stored in the air bag module or the main brain of the car. Until this crash data is cleared, the car will not start for safety reasons.

I said you would not be disappointed 👍🤣. Like yourself, after owning both variants of the ZS EV the S5 is a big step up. I did enjoy both of our ZS EV’s, but as you would expect from a ground up designed EV, it’s just better. It’s does have its quirks ( just like other cars ) but hopefully 🤞 it...

Here is a volt meter that will be ample for what you require and is less than a £10. https://amzn.eu/d/h1kya3k If you do decide to replace the battery, these people are used by the trade and offer a next day delivery service...

An experience like that, is once too many and not very nice in my book. Honestly, I would go ahead and replace that 12 volt battery if it was my car, regardless of its age or milage covered. Batteries 🪫 are a bit like a light bulbs💡really, absolutely fine one minute and gone the next !. If you...

I totally agree. This has been mentioned before, but I can’t understand WHY the S5 does not have a 12 volt battery status report, on the health check included in the App. The ZS EV had it ???. It surely must be an oversight, it can’t be that hard to include it surely 🤷🏻.

Yeah - This is very true, the 12 volt battery does receive a charge, when the traction battery is being charged from an A/C supply. Previous MG models are configured in the same way. I think it would be helpful if the 12 volt battery just had a bit more spare capacity though tbh. I can’t help...

Because of this, I always leave my car in READY mode if I am parked up, waiting for our grand daughter to come out from school.

Totally agree !. This is the policy I have always adopted myself. I like to use an independent MOT station, that does not offer a repair facility. So there is no financial loss or gain from carrying out any of the remedial work. A lot of main dealers like to temp you with the offer of “free...

Good point, maybe leave the home button on the right hand side, but move the rotary part over to the passengers side 🤷🏻. You can adjust the climate control from the steering wheel as well.

I guess they work on the theory that if you need one, you need the other 🤷🏻. It’s the same on a lot of different cars tbh. Does any body think like me, that the two rotary control under the info screen 🖥️ should be the opposite way around ?. The one that can be used to adjust the volume of the...

Yeah - It is the same stud spacing as your current ZS EV so no problem there then. The ZS EV used different wheel hubs from the previous ICE ZS models. They decided to use the stronger heavy duty hubs from the older HS on the ZS EV instead. Because the larger hubs from the HS model, had larger /...

Cars have definitely out grown the size of standard parking spaces now. Providing plenty of work for the dent repair people that’s for sure 🤣.

The spare wheel you have, it is the MG space saver type ?. If so, then yes it will on the car okay and it will JUST fit under the boot floor cover, on its highest setting. Remember that the MGS5 has no spare wheel well formed into the body shell, unlike that in the ZS EV models. The S5 Trophy...

You could almost fit a classic Mini inside the Austin Maxi !. A lot of interior space, very wide if my memory serves me correctly ?.

Arahhh ….. I remember them well @Ian Key . Had them on my Mk1 Mini Cooper S which I fully restored. I can still remember replacing the glass sliding runners in both of the doors, way back in the day. I wish I still had it now, it would be worth a small fortune. Strange when you consider they...
