So in my case the issue was that the software on the infotainment system had not been updated correctly. This caused the QR code to not appear for binding, and also caused the heated seats and 360 camera icons to dissapear. The dealer re-applied the update and now im back to normal - just...

Thanks for this. Got it sorted yesterday at the dealership. The monkeys who updated the infotainment system made a right hash of it, and as a consequence, 360 camera, heated seats and smartphone pairing all didnt work. After another software update, they are all working now. Cheers.

You must have got lost - you're in the MG5 Forum🤣

Don't think so.... you must be talking about the PFL Trophy. I have a Facelift 2023 model.

In this situation I'm not reversing! I specifically want to invoke 360 whilst driving forwards (at very low parking speed)

Below is a direct quote from the MG5 Trophy (2023, facelift) manual. It mentions you can invoke the 360 view by using a button. But I`ve looked on the car and cannot see any such 360 button. I have a fiddly drive and invoking 360 view whilst crawling forward to park would be very useful. Any...

So I spoke to customer service and they have told me that the bound / unbound status will not affect the ability of iSmart to display the QR code on the infotainment screen which is needed to initiate the binding attempt. Aparrently, if it is still bound to the previous owner, then the...

Thanks very much, that number works and they picked up in a couple of minutes.

Trying to call MG Customer service on 0121 756 4864. First call was on hold for 1 hour 16 mins and then dropped the call. Second call on hold for 16 mins (and still on hold now) Are they all sat with their feet up smoking cigars?

According to the dealer, yes. However my level of trust is franky subterranean. I`ll contact MG Customer service and ask them to check. I assume they wont do anything until I send them a V5 copy, which I`m currently waiting for from DVLA.

Picked up my 2023 MG5 FL, and cant get iSmart to start the binding process. Multiple attempts over the last couple of days, and this error crops up every time I try. Any suggestions?

Thanks for the tip regarding a USB hub. That's definitely worth a punt. The bus shouldn't give a damm about how many devices are connected to it, particularly given you are only ever using one at any given time (because when you turn on Android auto, you turn off the Infotainment based usb media...

Just to confirm, you are talking about a FL MG5, correct?

Hi, Could a FL MG5 owner tell me if I can plug in a USB stick into the usb type A port on the right side whilst also having a phone connected to the left USB type a port for Android auto? Basically I want to have a permanently attached usb stick containing music whilst in parralel having...

The judder will be caused most likely by the angle of the blades against the glass. They should be at at perfect 90 degree angle to avoid judder. On an old car the fix would be to bend the arms slightly to get the wiper blades to the correct angle.
