Hi All Hoping this will save other folk some worry Noticed a damp patch under my MG5 on the floor of the garage over the last couple of weeks. Took the car to a local garage for investigation yesterday. Apparently, it's just condensate dripping from the air conditioning system, due to the...

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...

Just wondering whether anyone can offer advice/guidance on where to find a clear diagram of an exterior mirror [2021 MG5 Exclusive] Managed to clumsily 'bash' mine against the garage doorpost. The bottom half has parted from the top. None of the plastic appears to be actually broken or...

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

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 ;)

Nice - but is it possible to sign up to Intelligent Octopus with an MG5?

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...

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...

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...

Winter wheels/tyres from (sold) Mercedes C Class fit OK - so have one of them in the boot - as a 'spare'

Thanks for that idea Gomev. I haven't tried it yet - but will do, when I find another 12v gadget with a suitable plug

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...

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

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

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?
