    Enormous depreciation?

    I bought my MG4 LR 18 months ago for £28.5k with £7k down, so £21.5k credit to pay + about £3.8k interest over 36 months (7%), £15k guaranteed at the end. Asked for a settlement fee the other day, 18 months in, and that was £19.5k. Can't find an offer over £20k anywhere for the car, so...

    Unable to select a drive 'gear'

    Got into the car this morning, quite nippy at about -2C, and for 10 minutes could not for the life of me select a 'gear' - drive, reverse, etc. Drive select button rim would not illuminate, LCD was showing 'ready', everything else as normal. Spent that 10 minutes turning power totally off via...

    MG iSmart 2.0 features & usage thread [no moaning in here please!]

    I know there's now a (merged) thread on the update to the MG phone software app but it's almost entirely issues and problems with the app, rather than any information on what new features the update has brought, or how to use them. Can we keep this thread as that, perhaps? For instance on the...

    How to maximise the GPS screen?

    Sorry if this has been asked before but I did search for it before posting. On the in-car entertainment screen, how do you maximise it to just the GPS display on Android Play? Mine always starts with Spotify or music on the left hand side, about 1/3 of the screen, but I've accidentally managed...

    drive mode auto switching without input

    When I try to switch the drive mode of my MG4 Long Range to 'sport' mode, after about 60 seconds it automatically reverts - but actually switches straight to 'snow' mode, which is frustrating as it's the polar opposite (sorry!) of what I want. Has anyone else experienced this? It happens every...

    Anyone had to sell?

    Has anyone had to sell their MG 4 shortly after getting it? We may be in the position of having to sell, going overseas, but using one of the quick online evaluation tools, it seems unrealistically low.

    rapid knocking

    For the second time in as many weeks, I've experienced a rapid knocking that I can feel through my left foot when resting against the foot rest (RHD) while parked with the car still 'on', so feels like it's coming from somewhere near the bottom of the car, towards the front. Has anyone else...

    Any way to prevent Android phone from 'interrupting'?

    So I've finally ditched my iPhone (yay!) and got a proper phone (Android), which has incidentally also 'cured' the annoying cable/ connection issues I had with Apple Car Play, because as expected Android has much better compatibility - BUT with my phone connected to the MG infotainment system...

    locking the car

    When I lock the car by using the driver's side door button (and it's set to lock/unlock only the driver's door in settings), it often doesn't lock with a single press and I usually have to press the door button twice for it to lock, turn off the headlights and infotainment system, etc, or go...

    USB cable keeps dropping connection - recommendations?

    Trying to use Apple Carplay and the connection comes up (i.e. the icon goes white, not greyed out) for a second or two, then the connection drops before I can press the button. Disconnecting and reconnecting the cable has the same effect, car play becomes briefly available and then drops out...

    Can you turn the radio off completely?

    I think you can do this from the radio screen but is there another way to turn off the volume/sound on the radio completely from the hard buttons or main screen, or can you only turn down the volume to minimise it?

    How to distinguish between SE and SE long range model?

    Does anyone know how you can easily distinguish between the SE and the SE long range models? AFAIK there are no distinguishing badges or 'marks' anywhere on the cars and they look identical, but on Gov UK and the Vehicle Check app, my car is showing as an SE, not the SE long range, although I...
