    How to Leave my MG4 parked but movable?

    Here in Thailand almost every covered car park allows parking at 90 degrees to the marked parking bays, but vehicles must be left in neutral with the handbrake off so the attendants can push them to allow access to the blocked areas. So far I've managed to avoid using these spaces with my MG4...

    Stationary but the power meter shows 3-5.

    Car on a flat road stopped as normal with 99% regen and light touch on the brakes to kill the last kph. Now waiting for a minute for the traffic to move so keep the brakes on to stop any creep**. The power meter is showing 3 or 4, sometimes higher, but I have no aircon, lights or anything else...

    MG Wall Charger: How Hot Does Yours Get?

    I don't know if this is the same Wall Charger that comes with the car in other countries, but in Thailand this is the standard 7kW unit supplied and fitted as part of the price. It works OK, although the setup with my MG4 isn't smart enough to allow scheduling or capacity control, which is a...

    Charging Speed at 10%?

    Today I inadvertently ran the main battery down lower than usual and just now plugged it into our MG wall charger when I got home. The charger reliably provides 7.2Kw when topping up in my usual range of 25 - 75%, but with the battery at 10% it was only working at 2watts. The charging port...

    Problem Playing some videos

    I have recently installed a two channel camera system and want to be able to review video on the main screen in the car. Each camera records its own stream and although output from the rear works fine, the front stream doesn't even show thumbnails on the files. I'm guessing the car doesn't...

    My First Error Messages

    My car, an MG4 Thailand Model X (equivalent to the UK Trophy) is two months old today and I have had no issues apart from the strange decisions MG opted for in the firmware - the most unforgivable being the need to reset all my driving preferences every time I enter the car. As a birthday...

    Has Anyone Got an MG Dashcam (DVR)?

    I'm using the dashcam from my last car via the 12v lighter socket and want to upgrade to a 2 channel (front & rear) set hard wired to allow recording while parked. MG has one they describe as the MG DVR and although the price is good, I'm not thrilled about the specs and haven't been able to...

    Does Android Auto Eat Power

    I have a newish Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra which connects to my MG X (Trophy to those not in Thailand) via a very neat Anytrox Android Auto wireless adaptor which has worked very well in the couple of weeks since I got it. I've recently had a couple of instances where on leaving the car I find...
