    Warning Chimes with no visual clue

    It's the max speed limit setting! It drove me nuts for weeks. Somehow, it turns itself on - mine came on limiting (or telling me) that I was exceeding 20mph. I had to go to the dealer to have it turned off, but only one of them knew of its existence.

    Warning Chimes with no visual clue

    I had this when my MG4 was about 8 months old. In the settings there is an alarm that you can turn on when the car exceeds a stated speed (you turn this on manually). Somehow, the setting had turned itself on and had set a speed of 20mph. Every time I accelerated past this speed the chime...

    MG4 EV SR range

    I must have an exceptional craft or else the onboard computer is faulty!

    MG4 EV SR range

    (I wish I had taken a photo to prove this, but) yesterday I had 49% SOC and the range showed 115 miles. This is not unusual, but I do live in East Anglia which is not exactly hilly! I am getting 4.5-4.8 mls per kWh, in summer, 5.2.

    MG4 EV SR range

    I have the same car and easily get a range of 225 miles, even in February. I must have a very light right foot, however I rarely exceed 60 mph. I have eco on at all times and driving set to comfort and maximum regen.

    Loss of Control

    Reading your query and some of the responses, I am somewhat surprised at this event. I've had my MG4 SE for a year now with none of these issues. The car came with High spec Continental tyres and I run them at 3.0 BAR when cold. I find that they perform better than the standard pressures. I had...

    Got a Nissan leaf this is for you

    It is very expensive, BUT, a lot of work went into it and the production costs for (what would be at the moment) just a few sales is going to make it a bit pricey. But this no different to any new tech. Once sales increase, the price should drop quite significantly as many folk across the world...

    Granny charger works only for a bit and then stops

    Hi, We had exactly the same problem with our MG4 which we bought in March this year. Tried 2 different granny cables in several places and it always failed after 5-10 minutes, except of course at the dealership (!) who thought we were making it up. We thought it might be the car itself and the...

    MG4 Charging port lights stopped working

    Hi, I've noticed that usually (even this evening), that if I plug in while the car is still in ready-mode, the charging lights stay off, even if I then lock the car. If my car is locked and then I plug in, then the lights go green (as they should do). Can't explain the vagaries of the MG4 as it...

    Android Auto

    It may have done. I am a new MG4 (23) owner and my Xiaomi 5 running Android 11 attaches via Bluetooth with no worries. My other work phone however (Huawei P Smart with Android 9) requires the cable, which is annoying as other devices may need the usb port.

    Android Auto

    Sorry to hear that, but this advice may be useful to MG4 owners.

    Android Auto

    I have found that newer phones (Android 11 +) will connect without a cable and work well, leaving the USB socket clear. Doesn't exactly answer the question but can solve this problem in a way.

    Zappi Users, does the MG4 lock-out the Zappi in Eco+ mode after a number of cycles?

    Hi, I have the same problem. I've tried charging my MG4 SR at home on my Zappi using Eco + but if the sun goes in (i.e. it drops below 1.4 kw) then the car switches off the charging saying it has completed the charge. VERY annoying as it took me 4 hours before I noticed this error. I think it...
