In fact they included this in their report. (I’ve shown only the references to the brakes). It’s a bit puzzling because it’s the second they sent. The first does not have the strike throughs. What’s shocking is that you can buy a pair for under £100.

Well, there seem to be two discs on the front. Can't really see; separated but together? both - i.e. the pair of discs and the gap between them - measure 26.36 mm. Previously, I measured only the outside, visible disc on the front wheels. Is that right? The two discs on the front are bound...

I was actually wondering whether that was what was bothering the mechanics. Didn’t see how they’d interfere but…what do I know?

Thank you. The groves can be felt with the fingertip on one disc but they’re not deep. I might look for another dealer. Or take them to another mechanic altogether. Disc thickness on the front between 9.35 and 9.4 mm. At the back, 10mm+.

I do use KERS a lot. Always have it set on the highest level. Send silly not to.

A picture of front and back discs. The discoloured patches are partially removable with a damp cloth. Some grooving is visible on the one disc.

They weren’t that specific. Honestly, I can’t remember the exact words. I was reeling! I’ll upload some pics.

My 2020 ZS EV was serviced yesterday and they advised that the front and rear break discs will need replacing in 5 months or so. Mystified as they recently MOT’d it 2 months ago but did not make that advisory then. Also, the price is HUGE! Around a £1000! Questions: is this normal (Car only...

Thanks for replying. I wasn’t either. I did, however, go down the next morning and a) unlocked the car; b) removed and replaced the charger cables at both ends. Then it charged. c) Partially charged it (80%) then set it to charge on the schedule. All worked fine. I suppose it’s possible that...

I have a 2020 ZS Ev and a Rolex QUBEV smart charger. My Octopus electricity tariff has a cheap rate between 12:30-7:30. Manual charging is enabled, eco charging (for solar) enabled s as well as scheduled charging. I have performed several scheduled charges without and problem. The latest such...

In the UK. My ZS exclusive 2020 has them. Mostly they are just about adequate but occasionally go berserk, or I have to operate them manually. Not a good system, sadly. As mentioned elsewhere, the driver’s side wiper chattering is really annoying and, I find, dangerous at night when the streaks...

Which car scanner (iPhone 13, iOS 18) will work with 2020 ZS Exclusive? I use a Bluetooth dongle with my iPhone.

Tested the showroom granny charger for a bit today as promised and it seems to be working. This implies that the new one they supplied me, with the car, was faulty. Might be an idea to try your car with one that has worked on other cars. At the MG showroom for example; they might lend you one...

I'll let you know tomorrow, when I've tried the new (used) charger out. Sorry my previous post was ambiguous: I meant the charger was working in their showroom.
