Car was repaired yesterday, something about another module with a blown fuse, haven't picked the car up yet so don't know the exact details yet. But its fixed, finally

I shall look into the voltage thing, got Indra coming out next week, said theywill bring a whole replacement charger with them, incase it can't be fixed.

MG garage said they borrowed something off another car they thought was the problem, but it wasn't. They do seem to just ring MG and ask what to do next, like they don't know how or what to fault find on an electric car. My home charger had its normal lights on after I reset it a couple of weeks...

Update Mg garage rang last week, say I need new 12V charger unit, should be ready this week. They rang back on Monday said they fixed the 12V problem but 2 more faults have appeared, to do with the charging system for the HV battery and are waiting to hear back from MG. At least they have...

Quite a few, iv rung round 4 so far all telling me the same thing, I was getting sick of the bs they feed you, ill end up screwing at them, couldn't handle any more rejection lol I was planning on doing the battery swap every other day idea, don't need to now, I forgot my dad has 2 cars, he is...

The AA put his jump pack on and everything was fine, The hv battery isn't charging it, Driving home on 11V expecting to see voltage go up but it didn't, When it got to 10V it dropped massively to 6V, Dash went blank then car stopped. But I'm hoping my wall charger being weird has blown a fuse...

Hi I'm after some advice regarding my 12volt battery going flat on my drive home. 12V battery light came on, car worked OK so kept driving, when the battery got to 10V it dropped like a stone to 6V dash went off then car stopped working completely. AA confirmed HV battery isn't charging the 12...

Mine did a very similar thing last month, sounded awful, grinding, then the noise just went after a couple of miles, I was in normal mode with kers 2

Terribly sorry sir after some research I have found you are infact 100% correct ? I feel like iv been miss sold this car lol, why they even mention rapid charge then. Anyway I'm still going to install a 3 phase for othe cars. I do quite like the polestars. I'm sorry if my messages seem a bit...

The mg5 can deffo charge faster than just 7kw Yes I am aware that rapid charging is DC, The car is DC whats the problem. My home charger saits at 7.2 kw while it charging so how is its max 6.3? 3 phase charger is for future proofing

Well they can charge faster than the 7 kw a single phase charger in a home can do. Plus it has the 2 extra plug holes for a rapid charger. Also I don't intend to have the mg for long, iv never owned a budget brand before. It was just a bit of an experiment with electric cars. I'm hoping to palm...

No off peak tariff for me. As I was reading your post I was watching a YouTube video at the same time, the guy was saying the exact thing you say about resetting the trip computer, spooky... I'll be installing a 3 phase charger at my work soon, then I really won't care about the economy. Infact...

Hi Having had an electric car for 3 months now, iv really noticed the range drop since the weather got colder, I had a thought, I charge at home at night most of the time, if I set my charger schedule so the car finished charging the same time I need to leave in the morning, the batteries...
