We have both M3 & MG4. I prefer M3 and would always take it on long journeys because of the tech and Supercharging. The MG4 has better boot capacity and my wife chooses it over the Tesla because she says it’s easier to park. Guess you should go with what you like but once you have got used to...

The only problem I have is it starts charging before my set times. When I notice I have to run out shouting what a stupid Fing car and go through the ritual of unplugging then sitting in car (wakes up from sleep by sitting in drivers seat) taping on battery in infotainment screen pressing...

MG4 is Great car for the money. Just some annoying glitches with FW ref schedule charging but drive is perfect. No issues that others have had and very happy with it

We have no had success with the scheduling by not touching the App at all we now plug in and lock. Dash show’s charging scheduled we then leave it with fingers crossed and it has worked now twice. Don’t even open the App to check as that seems to confuse the car. Hope it gets sorted soon as the...

Yes. The stupid software resets it self to 10pm. Not fit for purpose very frustrating

I think you are correct. Leave the app well alone and it works but opening the app seems to override times to a factory set one. Shame as would be good to use the App but frightened to peen it until I’ve unplugged 🤞

Many thanks. I’ll try this. To confirm are you saying set schedule before putting in park ?

My MG dealer new less about the car than I did sadly. They told me that it had to be charged by a 3 pin plug only !!! when I asked about a type 2 cable.

Thanks for the reply but this just confirms the car scheduling does not work as I’ve found out. Does anyone on this forum know if MG are aware or how we can get them to work on a fix ? All well and good crossing fingers but this is a pretty big flaw in and needs fixing. Thanks for confirming 😡😡😡...

Thanks for your help in testing 😊 can I ask if you locked the car after setting ? This is when it defaults to factory setting times or if we look in App (which we won’t in future) it again resets car to the times that must I assume be factory set not what we set it to in the car or the App. Most...

I have a Tesla charger as my other car is model3. It’s all done via the car. It’s a shame as the MG4 would be better as has both start and stop settings (if it worked) whereas M3 only has start time and you have to estimate finish time. ☹️☹️☹️

Loving the MG4 apart from the so important schedule charging. Seems so simple to set 12.30 - 4.30 am which is my special cheap rate from Octopus energy BUT the bloody thing keeps reverting to pre set times and therefore charges outside my set times. Any ideas for a fix ? How are others getting...
