Ditto about the second key still being in the car.

I had worn front suspension bushings at about the same mileage but after only 2 years, which I thought was not good. My dealer replaced them under warranty. I don't know if they are still under warranty at 3 years old but it might be worth an ask.

My Trophy had its 3rd service last month 98% at 33000 miles. Mind you, they gave me a scare by mistakenly writing 78% and then correcting it by writing 98 over it! Must check with car scanner...

Just as an update, I mentioned at my third service that the scheduled charging on my car always started up soon after plugging in, regardless of the schedule. Lo and behold, it has come back with scheduled charging working perfectly! Not sure what they updated but it did the trick. I did notice...

In nearly 3 years of ownership, my Trophy has always started charging before the scheduled time. I only have a dumb Podpoint charge point (EVSE before I get corrected :)) so have to set the schedule on the car. Even when scheduled it will start charging within a few minutes of plugging in. The...

I only asked as Brown & Gammons was, until recently, a full MG dealer. It's where I bought my car. Sadly, MG in their infinite wisdom decided that B&G didn't have a large enough showroom to keep selling their new cars. They still do full servicing and warranty work as they are an MG approved...

I don't have problems with Gridserve (other than their prices!). I tend to use their app as they sometimes give a discount if you use the app rather than contactless payments.

Have you asked a local dealer?

I had front undertray damage and had to pay for it. I was lucky in that they were replacing some front suspension bushes under warranty so they didn't charge me for any labour as they had to take the undertray off anyway. The damage was caused when I pulled onto a verge in a narrow lane to let a...

I've found that the current journey reading takes a while to reset. I can stop for 40 minutes or so on a journey and it hasn't reset when I start off again. I actually don't mind that as on a long trip I know how far along I am. It does eventually reset when stopped for long enough, but I don't...

I had the seat belt warning start up once when I was carting a heavy table top. It turned out that I'd accidentally trapped a box of tissues between the folded backrest and the seat squab and this was pressing on the sensor. I thought I was in for 40 minutes of beeps but after 3 or 4 minutes it...

I want it too!

Since an update my ACC no longer slows down around corners that it used to. Otherwise it is still too rough to use when it gets busy. It slows down far to heavily, waits to speed up again then does that quite enthusiastically! I still use it on motorways if the traffic is light or flowing...

I'll have to try with everything else turned off to see what happens!

My Trophy will beep (but not try to steer) when going back to a lane after overtaking if I pull in quite soon after the overtake while the blind spot warning is active. If the blind spot warning is not active then I get no beeps.
