Sorry, I looked again and it was from Amazon

To be honest, I can’t think of an easy answer to your question. However, are you sure that the MG3 and the ZS are running the same software and ‘running gear’? The MG3 is a lot lighter, and therefore it’s probable that the software was written to take this, and perhaps other differences, into...

44 Mpg?😉

Absolutely….. Yes, but the ‘new’ driving experience, takes a bit of getting used to. There are a lot, including mine, of post, which attempt to rationalise the difference, and why the PD052 software was necessary and the difference it makes.

My ZS Hybrid+ was updated to PD052 on the 23rd of March, and to begin with, I thought that it made matters worse. However, in West Sussex we don’t have many steep hills, therefore I hadn’t experienced the high revs problem. After driving, post PD052, for a month, I have come to the conclusion...

Left it alone, touched nothing, and then tried again a couple of hours later. And it worked. “flakey” it’s a technical expression for equipment that can’t be relied on to function correctly, all the time.

ISMART app down at 13.25 today. Anyone else getting this?

And I expect, make and receive hands free phone calls, and just say a stored destination. I bought my CarPlay one, from Aliexpress for £12.95 P&P free.

Jerry Pan has a video on a plug-in for MG’s he recommended the ‘carabc wireless CarPlay adapter’, which I bought. The system has it moments, generally it connects and works, occasionally I have the wait a couple of minutes, but I think it has something to do with the operating system on the car...

I had a MGB a long time ago, and really enjoyed driving it. Coming off carry cots etc. it had to go. I just wish the British Racing Green was available in the UK, mind you my Hampstead Grey Metallic looks very smart.

For some bizarre reason I like to have mud flaps on my cars. However, when I asked the dealership, they stated that there are no accessories available for the ZS Hybrid. I have also been told that as the model is not available in China, there will be no aftermarket accessories, on the likes of...

Hi Ann. Agreed, the button is easy to see, but quite often I forget to press it, to switch everything off. However, the car informs me by sounding the horn, when I attempt to lock it. 😉.

But I bet your Xsara didn’t have most of the other features. Incidentally, you could add to no dipping mirror, no graphic equaliser, no horizontal steering wheel adjustment, no accessories, and no manual, please don’t be tempted to say there’s an online manual. However, it is loaded with...
