Was the setting still showing 80% and the car had just ignored it or had the setting changed to 100%? I find that my setting sometimes changes itself from 80 to 100% for no reason. I haven't found a way of preventing that.
Setting still 80% but charged to 100%
Yup mine too. I noticed this seems to happen since we've had the latest app.
No it won't. Use the app to set the 'schedule charging' to 'charging to target battery level' on the 'end time' and set your target level to 80%. Always check before charging
That was the issue many Trophy owners faced after getting a new CCU. I think @tsedge then got software updates to "fix" this ... which then bricked the AC charging again.
Thanks for that, wonder why I didn't think the nut icon represented battery settings! Dear MG, please put this back on the charging screen!
I always charge at home to 100%, I need the range and use my car daily so it never sticks at 100% for more than 12hrs, I only stick to the 80% rule with the faster chargers. I am up to 29,000 miles and the last service showed no issues for battery health. So I agree with what you say here. And the manual states that periodic slow charging to 100% is required to allow for battery charge equalization.
