    MG ZS EV says What!?

    Difficult as it's one of the four (I think) random responses to pressing the 'listen to me' button on the steering wheel

    Infotainment screen 'freezes'

    Twice now my car's infotainment screen has 'frozen'. Always at the end of a voice command 'dialog' the screen fails to revert to the previous screen. In both cases for me, that was the nav screen. Phone connected via BT for media only. Both times this occurred we were on (Spanish) motorways and...

    MG ZS EV says What!?

    Does everyone else's car sometimes respond with a rather accusatory in tone "What?" Made me laugh the first time I heard it. .. someone somewhere at MG has a sense of humour I think .. MY car announces itself with "Take me for a ride, baby" which gets a laugh from passengers. What does yours...

    Annoying slowing in Adaptive Cruise

    I've just driven 2x500km on sparsely used Spanish motorways this week; the 'adaptive' bit of cruise control is abysmal in contrast to the Prius and Ford Kuga systems I've used previously. Constantly sensing armco on gentle curves (not bends) and dips in the road. The first thing I did this...

    Android Auto/ABRP - unable to use full screen

    Doh!! Issue resolved. A sharp double-tap is required on the ABRP map shown ⅔ screen to get it to go full screen. Discovered by accident ... :oops: I'll get me coat ..

    Android Auto/ABRP - unable to use full screen

    Thanks, but without going full screen it's impossible to zoom or scroll the map. Dialog with ABRP support ongoing ....

    Android Auto/ABRP - unable to use full screen

    My point being that ABRP worked perfectly when not used via Android Auto, and was in most respects preferable to GM for us in an EV in spain

    Android Auto/ABRP - unable to use full screen

    We used both on our drive yesterday; we preferred ABRP over Google without using AA for either. And I'm all Apple, except for fone ...

    Android Auto/ABRP - unable to use full screen

    Spent a couple of hours one afternoon playing with ABRB on my phone and re-familiarising myself with Android Auto. About to set off for 500km drive, plugged phone in with route planned, AA selected on car's 'home' screen and get a display which is ⅔ ABRP and ⅓ audio player. OK so far, but...

    Built in satnav - finding charging stations

    First long distance (500+km) journey tomorrow. For the first 3 months of ownership the car has only been charged at home with a granny cable. Finding charging stations has not been an issue as I've never needed one. So, sitting in the car, the display shows me a map with my predicted range...

    EV storage/lay-up

    Living in southern Spain, in the country, each summer from May-September we go north in our motorroam to seek out cooler climes. In the past a neighbour has popped in every month or so and moved our old diesel Citroen C4 around the garden from one patch of shade to another, rotating the tyres...
