Good idea, though my dealer mightn't suit a lot of ye since I'm based in Ireland. My dealer - that I find quite helpful and would recommend is Sheils Garage in Limerick. Just read through your thread, very helpful and informative, albeit I'm driving a Trophy so SW obviously different, but good...

Thanks that kinda explains it, to get fuller understanding I must read up on the DRL legislation. Still can't really see the logic of lighting up the car, and know for a fact several other makes that don't do this - infact don't know of ANY other EV maker that does! I wonder has anyone come...

Do all your back lights still come on? Makes you wonder since they went to trouble of making change to address complaints of it getting lit up (obviously by design) then why not just leave all lights off like I think most of us wanted, I really struggle to see why MG would think anyone would...

I can also confirm I had my infotainment update done in less than 10 minutes from pen drive, I didn't even have to get out, tech jumped in beside me and he had it done while we were talking, Trophy from R33 to R46, done to address comms issues incl BT, car, I only had the car one week -and those...

Fair enough, I hadn't experienced that problem myself, and understood from other posters that TOD tarriffs did relate to their issues. Although perhaps my car already had update (July '23 Trophy) and I suspect different people are have different problems. My main point, 'you can't get blood...

Agreed, but it's with TOD tariffs people have the preheating issue. Of the three scenarios; unplugged, plugged in and charging (or ability to charge) and plugged in not charging or available (TOD tarriff) It is only when plugged in without power available causes the problem - the car can...

A software fix for the car may allow ability to preheat when plugged in and not charging, but not from mains power, remember if your wall box supply/mains is off via your tariff/schedule the car will not have the ability to override this. The car can't get power from a cable when none available...

I think ye are both right, the MG4 isn't cheap, but it certainly is compared to majority of the competition, and I believe is (mostly) a great EV car for the money - comfort, handling, performance, features and looks all stack up well against its competitors, unfortunately let down by a few...

No bother, I hope it's helpful

In short - it depends on your dealer. As some others on this forum have mentioned, if you request a SW update some dealers may try to charge you by quoting that MG don't reimburse them for their work/time (and some updates can take hours to complete - tho the infotainment system usually only...

Or better still, as some manufacturers do, automatically disable until lines become clear enough again to get definitive reading, then re-enable . Herself's Kia Eniro does exactly that and she never turns it off, and it never behaves erratically, just gives a slight nudge/resistance if you get...

I had mine replaced by dealer last week, I'd flagged it with dealer when first collected car 4 months back. Unfortunately replacement still has slight bulge though not as bad as original, I suspect MG are still working through its original stock before next redesigned batch are manufactured. It...

I also found annoying until I realised it only pops up if the HVAC was on when I last switched car off, otherwise it doesn't, and I now believe MG deliberately done this to prompt adjustment if required. When driving I've noticed the full HVAC screen only comes up whenever I first switch it on...

I've never had that issue

Sorry but I have to disagree, R46 sorted my Bluetooth issues - permanently. Background ; collected car at start of July, phone was constantly unpairing almost every time I got in/out, (also online connection flaky - wouldn't update weather, etc) Anyway back to dealer a week later, he tells me...

Agreed, this debate has already been flogged to death on this thread, for those that missed it go back to page 2, opinions differ, enuf said

Very true, it ain't just budget MGs that the LKA is a PITA with. A mate of bought a Porsche Taycan recently, was quite happy with it for a week - until he brought it in some Twisties and thought there was something seriously wrong with handling, until he twigged to switch off the LKA, he said it...

Fair enough, though I never said want or need, but I'm willing to 'accept' a gentle nudge v's a tug. Otherwise, until then, I (and I believe most other drivers) will just disable the function every time we get in the car, I wonder when/if MG and NCAP will cop on to that fact.

Totally agree, I believe LKA should be exactly that, a gentle proactive 'nudge' to keep you in the lane as you approach the line (as some other car manufacturers have achieved) - and only when it's reliably identified line markings, Not a reactive 'tug' when you're already on the line (or it...

If this is true it really will start to get confusing, can't see any logic for MG not keeping completely separate numbering systems to different models, then again they do have some previous history of strange software decisions - hence the need for threads like this 🤨
