And (assuming it's not an MG dealer) get the registration number and check it has still got a valid warranty by asking your local MG dealer. It needs servicing every 12 months or 15,000 miles so may have had 2 services already done depending on when it was registered.

As already said I would start the rejection process ASAP. I'm not aware of the SR having any issues with the CCU unlike the LR in the early 3 phase versions.

If you have the long range SE without the rear wiper it most likely is CCU failure - there is a very long thread about it on this site.

As yours is an early LR with 3 phase charging it sounds like it could be CCU failure - is that what they replaced earlier?

Yikes - that could have gone very badly and shows why granny chargers are only meant for emergency use. It looks like the fuse hasn't been making a good contact in its holder and has caused the overheating. However I'm surprised that the thermal cutout didn't trip it. Just be aware that you...

Don't expect it to be covered by the warranty - you might get lucky though!

My 135 mile trip at 1° yesterday morning gave 2.7 miles per kWh at an average speed of 57mph (ACC set at 65mph) which was 125 miles of motorway with car AC temperature set at 28° and fan speed 1. Arrived at the Tesla SUC with 4 miles range left on my SE SR.

Pull the fuse and it may reset otherwise it will need to go to the dealer, hopefully someone will tell you which fuse!

No - only an MG dealer can do updates. MG servicing must be done every 15,000 miles or 12 months - whichever comes first. Without proof of the first service having been done at 12 months you must assume the warranty is not valid. Only an MG dealer can check this as it is held online.

When you mention the 2 year service has it had the 1 year service?

When I disposed of my dad's Mercedes early this year I removed the dash cam but left the wiring in place - I had hardwired it but as you said it was too much bother to remove the wires.

But if the dealers in Aus are like the UK ones they will say it's not a fault but a characteristic i.e. all the early ones do that, so if you want it updating and improving you will have to pay for it.

@Cabansail is in Australia so maybe the fix hasn't been available there? Having had my 3rd service done in February the dealer failed to do the SCUK0077 update despite claiming, when I picked it up, that it had been done. I had also asked them to sort the ACC slowing down excessively in corners...

They add a management fee of £1.20 each month so that will be most of it.

As long as it has the factory tinted rear windows that the first couple of batches had in error! Maybe I will keep mine a bit longer then 🤔
