    Spare tyre

    Disagree. I have had the space saver wheel that I had in my ZS in the S5 since the day it arrived in May. It's very slightly tight in it's depth but it works OK.

    DashCam turns off.

    Hi, sorry for delay in reply, been away. The power glitch seems to happen when you press the brake on initial start up after the car has turned off. My problem turned out to be a duff camera battery so you should not get any problems with a new camera.

    DashCam turns off.

    Sorry for the delay getting back to this. I found the problem. It was the battery. It was not holding charge. When you press the brake to put the car in gear you will hear a quiet click, I assume this is a relay working. This also seems to cause a quick disconnect and reconnect of the USB...

    DashCam turns off.

    Yes, took a look at that but nothing I could find.

    DashCam turns off.

    MG tell me that nobody else has complained about the dash cam USB power supply momentarily dropping it's power when the brake peddle is pressed when initially putting it in gear at initial start up. As such they have no intention of sorting it out or even looking at the problem. I have to...

    DashCam turns off.

    I have wondered about the voltage fluctuation. The blue light indicates that it is charging so the power is still there. I have looked in the cam handbook but there is no information on what it would do if the voltage went high or low as far as I can see.

    DashCam turns off.

    This is a strange one I think, has anybody else had this problem? I have a Nextbase R522GW dash cam which I moved from my ZS EV to my new S5 EV. It worked perfectly in the ZS plugged into the USB port on the windscreen top camera cover. There is a USB port in the same place on the S5 for the...

    MGS5 Windscreen.

    I decided to upgrade from my ZS EV face lift to the MGS5 and it arrived and was ready for pick up on 22nd May from W H Brand (Spalding). Excellent, even got the colour I wanted this time. One week later I got a stone hit on the windscreen and, lo and behold, one cracked windscreen. I was...

    Yes, I zero'd the trip and turned the heater off and up it went to 212 at 80%. I guess the lower figure is what I will see through the winter. Roll on summer!

    Yes, come to think of it my GOM normally showes around 212 after a charge to 80% but last night it came up short at 184. Interesting. Maybe I should try resetting the trips. My charge routine is the same as yours and for the same reasons.

    iSMART update

    Just been out to the car and, sure enough, it says 184 miles at 80%. App still says 194. Bugs bugs bugs!!! Maybe they should test these things first. They could also update the car and increase the regen braking power as well, that would be nice. They did it on the first version so they...

    iSMART update

    My 80% charge level showed higher than usual at 194 miles this morning, it used to be 186 if I remember correctly. Anybody else got this?? Another app bug I expect. Not been out to look at the car yet.
