Aha! It’s working today! Now.. if only you could switch on steering wheel heating remotely too!

Nice! I live in hope 🤣

I wasn’t sending multiple requests. I got that error message the first time I tried to switch on A/C Yes. I tried unlock and lock a few times with the key fob, but it didn’t fix it. By the sound of most of your replies, I guess there must be a fault on my car. Thanks everyone

It's a very frosty morning and I decided to try out the remote heating option using the iSmart iOS appl. But after several attempts I have given up. None of the options work, seat heating, windscreen heating, A/C control. I've tried remotely locking/unlocking the car but nothing fixes it...

I do. But it's practically useless. It's incredibly fussy about the precise position of the phone so that when you make a turn or go over a slight bump it stops charging. Even when it is charging it does so about 1% per week.

fair point! (I'm old school me)

aha! the cigarette lighter socket you mean? Brilliant! Why didn't I think of that!

I have a wireless dongle plugged in to my MG4's USB-A port and it works fine. Only problem is, I now can't use it to charge my phone. So I have bought two splitters, but neither one works with CarPlay. I assume it's because of the wiring not being able to carry data. Can anyone recommend a...

Just plugged it it and it works perfectly, no setup. Of course, now it means I’ll have to rely on the car’s almost useless wireless charging pad 😂

I just bought one of these. https://a.aliexpress.com/_EuBqJHx The instructions are most amusing

Just bought this cable and it works! Woo! Thanks everyone!

But this is for Android. This thread is about Apple Car Play

Really?! The USB-C port doesn’t work? Why ever not? (Rhetorical question - I’m not holding you responsible 😂) Going wireless means having to spend £70 on a gizmo just because MG can’t make a port that works! F*** that!

ok, thanks

I've just got a new iPhone 16 and I can't get Car Play to work at all. It used to work via the USB-A with my old iPhone 12, but this phone (which uses the USB-C output) is charging but not connecting to Car Play. I am using the Apple cable that came with the phone, but I can't get the Car Play...
