    My Ismart app sometimes does not connect to the gps

    Hi, it's not you, it's the MG server, they need to modify their software as it is very unreliable. Don't waste your time unbinding it's not your fault. For charging use your charger app if MG is down. I hope this helped, Tom

    MG4 Software updates

    Name the dealership and report to China, they cannot take your money and run mate. Ask for a full refund as they will not supply what you paid for. Updates are not optional but factory correction similar to a recall. Remember the ZS update October 2020 the battery was telling the car it was low...

    Sudden automatic braking issue

    Maybe, I don't know I was not in the car so cannot say but mine gets a little too excited even when coming up behind someone who is breaking but I suppose better safe than sorry but it is quite alarming.

    Sudden automatic braking issue

    Please see my reply to the post above yours, I think you will find the car "thought" the motorcycle could not or would not stop in time and thinking it was too close for comfort did the "safest thing" and not hit him. As for the cars behind, lets be totally honest they should not be traveling...

    Wireless Carplay with Carlinkit

    Hi, the touchscreen is fine while driving on every car I know, I believe you are thinking of features like TV and similar which become disabled when moving, we don't have such luxury items.

    Sudden automatic braking issue

    Too extreme yes unless a child has run in front of the car or some idiot has pulled out in front of you, sorry bowfer I would rather have a few false alarms that have accidents. My MG4 sounds an alarm unless there is not time for the driver to react in which case it takes over. I think "too...

    Sudden automatic braking issue

    Hi, the system is setup for movement within a set area and certain shapes in the front and rear cameras. Unfortunately this is far from fool proof yet but is improving, my MG4 would not let me reverse as people were moving around behind me (not behind the car lol) I ended up going a little bit...

    MG4 Spotted! : Was it you?

    Thanks for that but I meant once you pull up to get out the car is fully on until I press door button or remote.

    MG4 Spotted! : Was it you?

    Seems mad with the heater on and radio on to get out with everything going lit up, not the best idea they have had.

    MG4 Spotted! : Was it you?

    The SE was LR but the difference in appearance with spoilers, leather, sat nav just to start. SE is a basis Trophy and very basic, not even heated seats and wheel. Tom

    MG4 Lane keep assist

    Hi, go to vehicle settings and turn on mg pilot. Now set the Lane change to anything but not emergency. Come out of the settings - go back to MG pilot and turn it off. At the minute you are telling the car you don't want assistance except in an emergency - well crossing the line is classed as...

    Corrosion timebomb on MG 4 ?

    Pop it in writing to your dealership and keep it safe in case there are any issues at a later date. I have taken a screenshot of your comments.
