    "Connected Not Charging"

    Had the same problem on my pre FL. Disconnected the 12v battery, left it for 10mins, reconnected and everything reset and all has been fine since!

    MG5 - smashing!

    Nope! Just seat belt tensioner which held me in place for around 10 seconds. Worrying. Have read various articles on airbags and when they should deploy and still don't know if this is a failure or not.

    MG5 - smashing!

    So, this is what happens when your MG5 is hit from the front, head on! Was surprised at the amount of plastic bits. Going to be written off I suspect. Managed to get a loan car through insurers - new MG ZS Long Range - nice! As a lease car, I suspect it will be some time before I get any...

    HV battery not charging

    Sorted! Disconnected the 12v and everything reset. Now have range in full eco mode of 247 at 100% battery, and it finished off the remaining charge on my home charger in 10mins with no stop/start charging! Many thanks for the 12v tip :)

    HV battery not charging

    That's going to be my next step - have read that other EV's have had a similar issue and disconnecting the 12v resets the software, trips etc. Will attempt later and see how this goes and report back.

    HV battery not charging

    Hi All. So, I have an MG5 LR Exclusive 1st gen. Over the past two/three weeks the economy has started to drop which is to be expected at this time of year with wet-er roads, colder temps etc. However, driving like the proverbial nun, I was struggling to get more than 1.5-2.1m/kW and average...

    What's everyone's thoughts on ev values dropping like a stone

    Got my MG5 Exclusive long range through salary sacrifice meaning I save on tax and NI (circa £280/month actual cost to me). Thankful I work for a not for profit org and we are trying to as carbon neutral as we can.

    What's everyone's thoughts on ev values dropping like a stone

    Also got to bear in mind the price you pay is inflated for the margin offset and in no way reflects the actual value of the care. Parkers guide gives some great info on this and what kind of percentage to reduce the forecourt price by to see true value. Having said that, anything is only worth...

    Mg 5 rear heated windscreen

    Fair comment :) It gives me an uneasy feeling when main dealers and tech's don't know info like this though!

    Radio Initialisation Files

    I tried to update the sat nav, ended up clicking the wrong icon and wiped my radio files. Took it MG and they told me they had to order new DAB radio module (back fo the glove box I believe). Just fitted this morning after two-month wait! Factory reset will not work. Apparently, the DAB radio...

    Mg 5 rear heated windscreen

    Yup. Mines a 22 model Exclusive and is exactly the same. Took it to the MG main dealer, they were not aware of the FM radio aerial part and replaced the screen. The new screen is exactly the same -gaps three lines up to the right of the wiper centre. Agree with others, not the best design and...
