Off topic I know but to stop the thumping noise, just open another window a crack,. Allows the air pressure to equalise and the noise will stop.

We have a gravel drive and this happened to me when I'd had my MG4 for about a week! Horrendous noise and because the car was so new I thought it might be something serious. Called the dealer who diagnosed it straight away and advised reversing on hard lock left and then reversing hard lock...

Hi all, Does anyone know if MG have fixed this? My MG4 is still showing the weird date despite having a software upgrade earlier this year when it was serviced. Just want to know if it's worth getting a more up-to-date software version. Thanks

Thanks - I'll need to take a thermometer into the car! I usually just open the windows anyway :)

I have an MG4 Trophy and have noticed (now we finally have some warmer weather) that the AC lowest temperature is 17 degrees at which point the display shows Lo. It won't go any cooler. I wondered if it might be a feature of Eco mode but it's the same in Normal. It's not a big deal but does...

Hi, I was about to update this thread - which I started. :) I seem to have a fix though it's a bit soon to say for sure. The problem appears to be the charger, not the car or the cable. It was installed with a 32A circuit breaker which has never tripped, but the manufacturer (BGSyncEV) said it...

Hi all, Thks for the suggestions though they don't seem to fit my situation. It doesn'tt matter when or how I set the charging going - it stops after an hour or so. Anyway - I can report progress of a sort. The charger company looked at their logs and reported that there was an RCD leakage. They...

That really helps thank you - and fits with what I've found. Hopefully the tech dept for my charger (BG SyncEV) can help with similar info so I can take the car back to the dealer with a definite diagnosis.

That's really interesting! So what happened when it stopped?

I do - and it should. Worth trying with another cable though. At the moment I;m hoping that the charger tech support can give me diagnostics.

Good thought - I can post on our local FB page. Thks I’m in Marlow in Bucks. And the car doesn’t have rear wash/wipe so I guess it’s not a phase 2?

I've been thinking the same. As an EV newby the potentially faster cable seemed like the thing to do, but I've never used its 3 phase capability - the possibly capable public chargers I've used have all been tethered. I'd really like to get the set-up I have working though rather than buying...

Just to clarify - and it does indicate that it's the car that's at fault - charging stops early whether it's charging manually (just plug in and go), or via Smart charging with timing controlled by the charger or using the scheduled chargingfrom the car or the app. There's no method of charging...

Hi all, Thanks for the msgs - I would prefer to charge overnight as we have a cheap tariff but it stops after maybe an hour and a half whenever I try. 4 hours would be wonderful!! :) At least during the day, I can go out and restart it (just by reinserting the cable into the car). I've...

I'm now thinking the same thing - we'll check the small print for the tariff. When I've run down the battery, I'll set it up manually (i.e. not using scheduled charging) to charge overnight and see what happens. It's a BG Sync EV charger, but I'm not sure of the model. And t'internet appears...
