Many thanks - I think that's what I needed to know - I'll do that about every month and all should be good.

Thanks for the replies. I looked at the MG app and my charger app at about 07:30 (i.e. about 4 hours after it would have reached 100%) and both said charging had stopped. So I suppose it could have completed eq charging by then - but other than staying up and watching what it did at around...

I've had my Mk2 MG5 for a month now. I have Go Tariff so have set it up so that every night it starts charging at 00:30 and set the max charge level to 80%. That's been working fine. (Charger is set to always on - the scheduling etc is set up on the car itself.) Last night I wanted to do...

That worked a treat - thanks very much!

I have a Mk1 MG5. I normally listen to DAB radio, but when I connect my phone via Android Auto (to use google maps), Spotify automatically starts playing whatever it was doing when Spotify was last used. So to get back to DAB I have to go back to home screen and select DAB manually. Does...

Sounds great - I'll have a look later - thanks!

Can anyone please clarify whether the fittings for floor mats are same for facelifted MG5 Trophy as they were for the pre-facelift MG5? Specifically I'm looking at these https://carmats.co.uk/collections/mg-motors-uk-mg5-ev-car-mats It seems several options are on offer - 245mm clip spacing...

If the app is showing the right car, then the problems others are having would seem more likely to be car related rather than app-related. Maybe you have a later SW version in the car?

Given that the group (31 I think) for the facelift seems to be known, maybe a comparison could be done by putting down some other group 31 car just to get a price? If I get time maybe I'll have a go tomorrow. Incidentally what's the group number for the LR Exclusive?

So it means there's no way (without charging time calculations) of charging to 80% for example, if that's what someone wants? I presume there's no way to set max charge level from inside the car itself and that it has to be done from the app? I know that whether or not to bother with 80% or...

Thinking about it, think what might have helped me with Direct Line is that I went through the whole quote process online (putting vehicle as LR Exclusive), got a price, and then I phoned them saying I was happy with the quote but explaining that the model name wasn't correct. That's when she...

As a general question, has anyone at all got a MG5 Mk2 LR Trophy which is recognised correctly by iSmart? (Sounds unlikely if it's an app problem) Secondly, could someone with a car (still waiting for mine) please confirm which iSmart features are available, e.g. remote control of a/c system...

Not sure how you got them to add that Bovyboy, as my agent claimed it was impossible (maybe just too much trouble) - see my last posting. Out of interest, has anyone compared prices for MG5 LR Exclusive and MG5 (Mk2) LR Trophy?

mickw Standard Member Last week I insured a facelifted MG5 LR Trophy with Direct Line. They didn't have the model listed and the reg no. was not found because it hadn't yet been registered. I said (correctly) that it's a facelift of the Mg5 LR Exclusive with changes to the trim and the...

At the other end of the price spectrum, I just sold what was pretty much a basket case of a 2005 Focus (115k miles) to WeBuyAnyCar. Clutch was slipping (so badly we were concerned we might not make it to the selling place), which I put on the condition report. We'd been keeping it running as a...
