Sounds like a low/faulty12V battery, or terminals not tight.

I wouldn’t recommend it. It could result in reading either max or min possible temperature, a blown fuse or another system fault

There is always at least 1 breather pipe for the battery as it’s in an otherwise sealed case. This is to allow for the expansion and contraction as it heats up or cools, but the breather should be near the top of the battery - making it even less likely to flood. I would suggest the OP finds an...

Agreed. If it is OK on a public AC charger then it could be a poor connection on your home charger cable or the wiring to the charger. Poor crimps, small gauge wire or loose screw terminals would give this symptom; as the joint or wire temperature increases, so does the impedance therefore...

I don’t have 1-pedal driving (Exclusive/Luxury/Trophy MY22) with R46. I had exactly the same thing happen yesterday in TJA. I didn’t touch any pedals, auto hold was on but I didn’t brake. The car stopped on a slight incline when it got to the correct distance from the stopped behind front and...

Big drain culprit is a dashcam, if set to parking mode (always powered on)

Sounds like the 12V battery wasn’t charging and the voltage has dipped low enough to trip all the alarms etc., but when you leave it the voltage recovers just enough to allow you to unlock the car but the. It dips again. Leaving something on (like headlights or an open door) will drain the...

R46 fixes that, if you have R46 already, ask the dealer to re-install it - that’s a known glitch in some uploads of R46 but doesn’t happen to all cars. Mine arrived with R46 and they cured it that way after asking MG support.

Same here, my trophy sticks like 💩 to a blanket - to the point that I forget how windy it is until I stop! I’ve driven in some of the storms this winter with winds of 60kmh and gusting to 80+ and although noticeable, the car stays amazingly steady.

Same here although our temperatures tend to stay in the +2 - +12 region most of the winter, I have aircon at 25 plus heated seats and steering wheel most of the time. Still getting 17-21 kWh/10km and happy with that!

I had R46 from delivery (July 2023) but had a few issues (12V battery not charging reliably; left star buttton wouldn't reconfigure to anything but default settings; some DC chargers refused to connect). Dealr took it in for a morning in november to reinstall R46 in case it was the problem, when...

If it’s so stressful, perhaps you should reconsider driving any kind of vehicle? There are very few real faults with the MG4and your re-order won’t be much different to the one you rejected. All there are really is a few of the normal ‘hiccups’ you would get with any new car. The Mulan is hardly...

Fireman’s strike 77/78, I was part of an RN detachment in Dumfries based the the Ta barracks. The green goddesses petrol engines were ok at -10 but the coolant wasn’t and neither was the onboard water tank, so we parked them over inspection pits and put open flame greenhouse heaters under them...

I had those issues with my Exclusive (Trophy). It was the latest sw but the dealer reset everything to factory defaults earlier this month and reinstalled it, no problems since! Except for the headlights on alert..which only tells you that you left them on when you get back into the car 🙄

The EV Database gives more realistic estimates. It’s in km by default, you can change this to miles at the top of the screen...
