    Exterior mirror diagram - request

    Hi Peter Thank you SO much for this help! I honestly hadn't thought to look up how to change the bulb in the mirror. This will help considerably, 'cause I now know how to disassemble the mirror housing from the inside and - hopefully reassemble properly. So grateful to both you - and the...

    Ohme home pro charger & Pre FL MG5

    Hi - if you have an Ohme charger imstalled - you don't need MG to be 'in the list'. You'll be able to move onto Intelligent Octopus, regardless. Just send Octopus an E-mail request. Hope this helps

    Home charger - what do you use?

    I'm having the same problem, trying to get my MG5 and EO MiniPro 2 charger registered onto the Intelligent Octopus tariff. Perhaps if everyone on the forum started bombarding them with requests/applications, it may lead to some success. Who knows? But worth a try, surely ;)

    Best place to sell my MG 5

    Sold my Mercedes C Class on Cazoo (to buy the MG5) Good price quoted - absolutely no messing about with the price quoted. By that, I mean, they didn't scrutinise every wee stone chip and try to knock down the price - none of that nonsense. Pleasant sales transaction - Money in bank within a...

    MG5 spare wheel/ wheel lock nuts/miles/ kw

    Hi BE - Thanks for your advice. I shall look into obtaining the requisite spigot rings. Wouldn't want to do anything unsafe or illegal. I did give the nearside-front a trial run of about 5 miles. Put the car onto full lock - both forwards and backwards. No 'worrying' noises at all - so...

    Recommended MG5 long range home charger

    I have an EO MiniPro 2, on the Octopus 'Go' tariff - Set it up to start at 00:30 and finish at 04:30 whenever the SOC has dropped below 30%ish. The charger delivers almost 29kW in this four-hour period. If you more is needed, you could simply set the timer (using your EO app) to turn off later...

    12V Tyre Inflation Socket Query

    Thanks for your response to my dilemma EWD and for your suggestion. So far I've tried to get it working by pressing the start button once, twice and three times with foot on brake and with foot off brake - but, no luck so far. I'm thinking the next thing to check will be the fuse. I'm...

    12V Tyre Inflation Socket Query

    Has anyone tested their 12 Volt tyre inflation socket on the MG5 Exclusive yet? Mine has never worked - unless I'm missing a hidden switch, if so, will someone please advise me where to find it? Thanks in anticipation of advice

    Clocks go forward tonight

    You can still get 4 hours on the Go tariff - between 01:30 and 05:30. You may need to go into your App and change the times in there. Hope this helps

    Brake squeal when reversing?

    Mine is still doing this at the first application of the brakes each day - it always has done and now has nearly 7,000 miles on the clock. Has anyone found the solution to this problem yet?
