    Squeaky rear suspension over speed humps - returns!

    Thank you for the reply. What are the 'silent blocks' you refer to? is this lubrication something only the dealer can do?

    Squeaky rear suspension over speed humps - returns!

    During last winter, a loud rubberised squeak/knock emanated from the rear suspension on the driver's side, in particular when going over speed humps. When the warmer weather arrived, the noise completely disappeared. Except on ONE single occasion, mid July, when I'd driven for miles and miles in...

    Replacement Windscreen Wipers

    They were replaced free of charge under warranty due to the juddering of the rubber across the screen. I would still buy from dealer regardless of the price as I know quality has a cost.

    Satnav update

    Forget the car's in-built sat nav if you require bang up-to-date information as you drive, such as live traffic updates about holdups, police presence, road works, traffic jams, etc. Android Auto is the way to go.

    New ECU software

    I purchased my MG3 Trophy on September 24. Its just had its first service at 6000 miles, which I believe included a software update. The engine, when it's running, now sounds much sweeter, quieter and smoother than before. It doesn't scream in high revs like it did previously, so I'm very happy...

    Replacement Windscreen Wipers

    I didn't have to pay for them, as they were replaced under warranty. The bladed juddered so I complained.

    Replacement Windscreen Wipers

    All this faffing is a waste of time and energy. I got my replacement set from the MG dealer. No fuss no problem, and fit perfectly. Sometimes you have to bite the bullet.

    Satnav update

    My MG3 Hybrid trophy has just had its first service at 5500mls. On checking the Sat Nav software version on its return it has not changed it's still showing the same version as when I purchased it 12 months ago as 9.35.2.29158 - Feb19 2024 - Map Ver 2023 Q2 here EU&UK. Obviously the delear has...

    Sat Nav Recalculating Route

    I tried to love the fitted sat nav, but it fails miserably in most departments, particularly as it is not updated over the internet daily. Such is the benefit of Android Auto or Google maps, which do just that. I use Android Auto all the time, as it shows live traffic, so I can see exactly where...

    MG3 Hybrid+ - Rear creaking noise when driving over bumps

    I have to travel over several speed humps on my way into the estate where I live. During the winter the rear end produced a bang of scrunchy sound on landing after every speed hump, even though I was travelling very slowly. When the winter months ended, so did any noise coming from the rear end...

    Map Updates

    As far as I'm aware Naviextras.com does not apply any updates for the MG3 Hybrid. I also thought it did and tried them but was warned off it so have to wait for MG Europe to advise. Although some people report having receiving over-the-air map updates changes to their maps without due...

    Juddering Wipers

    Hi. I had exactly the same problem when I purchased my MG3 Hybrid. I took the car back to the dealer, and they replaced the two front wipers FOC. No problem since.
