It looks like you have the Intelligent Battery Heating ....on. That could be messing up the readings ? Turn it off , its most likely you don't / won't need it for normal driving and home charging. It will be using a lot of energy which is better used elsewhere. The pie chart in mine is pretty...

A sticking choke cable can be loosened with the WD. Being brought up in a rough Northern industrial town the other method could be useful in previous times either on a Friday/ Saturday night confrontations , terrace entrapments and escape tactics, or even a bit of avoiding good old horseplay...

The workshop will not show me the digital record on screen ( its their private information ) the dealer says all the history is on the I Smart app ( BS ) and then...

I believe early on the Chinese had a cheaper version without MG Pilot and all those safety systems . What happened in Singapore ( local regulation ??? ) to have their versions strangled by a third, must have been done electronically , MG/SAIC would not have made a new motor just for that market.
