My 2020 Exclusive also had the flap replaced at 5 yr service. No charge.

I think I would go for the most expensive.

Well done, persistence pays off. I wonder whether you will purchase another MG? I hope you get a full refund.

Maybe disturbance caused by lightning?

Pete G, please get your steering assessed NOW, it is hugely safety-critical.

You can get some really odd happenings if the drivers door is not closed, or the start-up procedure has been disrupted. But also check battery as above.

I think you should ‘assume’ it will be done under warranty. This is not a part that should fail in the lifetime of the car, you could argue the column is not fit for purpose and many have been replaced under warranty. Presumably the car is not 7 years old yet?

Has the garage kept the car? It is not safe to use until the steering column has been replaced.

If it is not charging using either the on-board ac charger or a rapid DC charger, it seems likely that the battery has disconnected itself altogether which rather implies that the car would not work at all - can you still drive the car? If you can, then maybe it is an issue whereby the...

Going back to the reversing with OPD, surely for safety OPD requires the use of the radar unit which of course will not be looking backwards?

The on-board charger is like any other bit of electronics, it can go wrong. The agent should be able to check it quickly and sort it out.

My son is having the same with his 2020 exite. It only charges for about 115 miles worth, then cuts off.

A remarkable data record Wattmaters, thank you. Some amazing highs and lows, how to explain them? Also this year seems much more stable, has your custom and practice changed, or what? But Salty is also right, why worry about SoH when you cannot really do anything about it.

Well my similar aged ZS Exclusive shows about 90% SoH after a tenth of that mileage. (Taken from 5yr service record, from Waylands). Do I think it will decrease further? Yes. In day to day use it would be very hard to check actual SoH, as I would not want to really try to get the 165 miles...

Worth a try I suppose. He has had it on charge (with the granny) for long periods of time in an effort to get the GOM mileage up.
