    Guess what, no they didn't, I did ask what modules had been updated but all they would say was, all modules that needed updating.

    LKA Happy Days

    Can’t access the car

    Suggest getting a 12volt battery drop test (this is not physically dropping the battery). This involves applying a heavy load, (high current/amps) and checking volt drop. Most battery tyre centres can do this.

    What Is The Highest Mileage/Oldest Completely Trouble Free MG4.

    MG4 Trophy delivered Oct 2022, 12,000 miles, mainly short journeys but with 2 trips to Central France. Car was faultless on delivery because LKA could be disabled permanently and I never experienced any other software issues. But following windscreen replacement and issues with camera...

    MG4 Lane keep assist

    I think even the greatest fans of the MG4 (Me Included) must agree that the MG4 implementation of the NCAP requirements for LKA is poor at best. I'm sure we have all been caught out on occasions by the system, What Car defined it as dangerous and even MG state that there are occasions (i.e. poor...

    Lane keeping assist

    One thing that comes to light here is that their are signficant software differences between SE and Trophy (STD, Luxury) in respect to LKA, LDA, ELK, Etc. My Trophy is an early model Oct 22 and from comments from similar owners, when purchased had the ability to disable LKA permenantly (suspect...

    Lane keeping assist

    I'm in complete sympathy with Joanne the Hairdresser some forum members appear happy to simply disable LKA at start of every journey and insist that this is a satisfactory solution. My issue is that MG state that there are occasions when LKA should not be used, but fail to provide a safe method...
