    Looking at the MG S6 but now very tempted by the IM6

    I really wanted the IM6 but both my kids preferred the S6 and given my son is 6' 6" he fits better in the S6. Oh, and less possibility of me ending up in a tree/field/wall/bridge

    Things I have learned about the S6 today.

    Aaarrggghhhh - charging balls! I learned this weekend with the first use of my home charger that the car and it's app are nuts. I plugged the car in on Sat. night, set the Pod app to prioritise cheap rate and set the charge limit to 80%. The car was 38% so only needed 35kWh max (compensating...

    I made an app to reduce range anxiety

    I'll give it a go. My neighbours kept me awake all night with a party and I've had taxis coming down my drive instead of theirs since 4am, so I'll have a nap once the farm jobs are done, then try to update.

    MGS6 suggested improvements

    A sort of follow up for other threads re. music coming on/staying on etc. My Kodiaq had different volume settings for media and you could set the volume on start so you didn't make your passengers wet themselves when the music starts at your preferred volume. That would be a nice addition to the...

    Setting radio to start automatically on unlocking and Turn Off when in Park

    My only real peeve with this is - if I park on my drive at home during the day, I often don't lock the car as I don't need to. Then, once I am within range of it with my phone in my pocket, Android Auto starts up and it's playing music while just sat there. I don't understand why it needs to do...

    Sooooooo....if you have your key with you, it works. I went out just, sans clé and no. Went into the house, picked up the key et voila! Headlights now adjusted.

    Things I have learned about the S6 today.

    Is there a way to have the headlights on, when it's not dark outside? Sounds like a dumb question, but...when I turned the headlight switch to 'on' from 'auto' during the daytime - no headlights. I got a 'bonggg' telling me my headlights are on - but they're not. I just wanted to check the...

    I made an app to reduce range anxiety

    I've made some small changes - the route b Yes to an extent. But this was just something I was messing about with to see if I could come up with the details and environmental conditions, all in one place. So, this looks up the weather, considers the driving style, vehicle, battery tech, route...

    I made an app to reduce range anxiety

    I can assure you it's not malicious or suspicious or dangerous content and will happily share the code. It may be that it's a .JS file that runs and many anti virus systems see these as a potential hazard. Just refreshed in my android phone and it's working. But it's not a production/retail...

    What virus checker do you use? it is hosted on my hostpapa account where I have a lot of others - do it mention what it thinks is unsafe?

    Thanks for that info - I will gather a few updates and do them in one go or I'll never have time to do any actual work :)

    I made an app to reduce range anxiety

    If you put the journey in, there is a note near the bottom that tells you whether you can make it home or not And let's you know where the nearest charge point is and who operates it

    I made an app to reduce range anxiety

    I was worried about a trip the other day as my home charger still hadn't been installed and following a granny charge the day before I'd needed to take my daughter out and back. I looked at where I was going, no charge point for miles around and would need a detour but wondered whether I'd make...
