Owned the car for 1yr and 4mths, have driven 31,000 miles, combination of home (100%) and rapid (80%) charging, SOH at second service 99.8%

Unfortunately, it doesn't fix that issue, which is where the ACC disengages when it is confused, it did it to me this morning. But after multiple updates I have noticed it happens less often.

Actually, it is, first, because when you pull out to over take it was recognising this as a corner and slowing the vehicle down by between 5mph and 10mph, if you were not quick on the accelerator the vehicle behind in the lane you pulled into would catch you up and then be frustrated that you...

So this corner slowing with ACC is a pain and potentially dangerous and I have chased up my dealer regularly for a fix. FINALLY, I got an update last week to the Front Camera and Radar software and it fixed it. What a difference, the slowing hardly kicks in at all and no longer kicks in on...

Hill Hold works most of the time with ACC but just occasionally it doesn't and the car will roll back. It caught me out once as I thought I had stopped and went to press the A/C button when I suddenly perceived movement out of the corner of my eye and slammed my foot on the brake just in time...

Swipe the main screen to the left, go into setting sand turn off "Hello MG". It will not fix it immediately as the car need to completely turn itself off, but next time you use the car it should be working. This method resolved the issue for me and it hasn't come back. Another useful tip, if...

If you are having issue with Android Auto displaying in daylight mode rather than dark mode at night, if you toggle the automatic headlights off then back on it will force the screen to read the ambient light levels again and set the Android Auto screen to dark mode if it is dark.

I always charge at home to 100%, I need the range and use my car daily so it never sticks at 100% for more than 12hrs, I only stick to the 80% rule with the faster chargers. I am up to 29,000 miles and the last service showed no issues for battery health. So I agree with what you say here. And...

Yep I can confirm the early MG4's are 11KW AC (after I bought the 22KW cable). I used it down at Corfe Castle West Street Car Park last week and got 10.7KW out of the MER charger which I was well pleased with. But I have only used the cable three times in the last 14mths.

Just watch out for the A30 roadworks, its basically dug up between Redruth and Penzance. There are Osprey and FastNed chargers in Camborne, but if you charge up at the open Tesla chargers in Linton you'll get an excellent price and should be able to get to Penzance and back to Linton on a single...

The beauty of an EV is that it uses very little electricity in a queue unlike the ICE cars that chop through the fuel (unless they have the A/C off and they have auto stop start available) so yer there may be a queue a Stonehenge but it will have limited impact on your range.

I have raised the issue of slowing unnecessarily on corners with MG via my Dealership, apparently there are a lot of complaints. It is dangerous because it slows you down unexpectedly from the perspective of the vehicle behind which then has a higher risk of crashing in to you. It works okay on...

Yep, I've not changed the cable since I bought the vehicle. But I did notice that some cables don't work at all.

Following the last update which was R43 I think, the car occasionally throws Android Auto out and you have to unplug and plug back in. Weird thing is that it does it a lot on some journeys and not at all on others.

I left mine for 3 week last February at Heathrow and it was fine when I got back, best of all being bright orange it was dead easy to spot in the car park :-)
