    Next Chinese X Power Rival Incoming.

    Looks a bit long to my eye, but the first 'real' rival to the X Power I reckon. https://www.carexpert.com.au/car-news/byd-ocean-m-ev-hot-hatch-revealed-in-beijing

    6 Month Battery SOH

    Had a little play with an ancient OBD dongle I've had knocking about the shed and found 'Car Scanner' now had an MG4 Profile. Doesn't cover very much but it did give me a State Of Health (SOH) reading for the battery. The car was built 1 year ago and I know six months isn't a long time (my...

    X Power Vibes Fix?

    Right! That got your attention! Ignore your dashboard Tyre Pressure readings and get yourself a Tyre Pressure gauge that you can trust. Pump your tyres up to 40 psi (from cold) and go for a drive. You should notice a difference? I got the idea from @DougC when I saw his Tyre pressures on...

    X Power in the Wild.

    I hope this will resonate with ALL my X Power, and Ex ICE performance car driving brothers and sisters, especially if you have been driving 'them' for a long time as I have. As some of you know Ive been away this last week and was making 'more' of an effort at the front end of the week to be...

    Real World X Power mi/kWh Thread.

    X Power figures ONLY and 200 miles as a minimum mileage PLEASE. G'day. I have been away for the last week and I wanted to post up my real world figures. Driving the car as I normally would with AC on, plenty of beanage and heated items ON as required. I.E. Not trying to be particularly...

    Bit Of Fun On A Tuesday.

    Can you please tell me what you are looking at. Clue, it is NOT the trees or the clouds or the sky and there is nothing but trees, clouds and sky in the picture. I'll send some Ferrero Rocher to the first correct answer. 👍

    Anyone need brake pads yet?

    So what do you think of this shameless profiteering from the only MG parts suppplier I could initially find online. MG4 Front Brake Pads. Volkswagen Golf GTD Front Brake Pads. Let's hope we can purchase from Ali Express or such like when required eh?

    Abusing the TJA.

    So, some of the regular members will know that I have been having an issue with my car lately. During the several resets I have carried out, I have had to go into settings to redo all my preferences. As a rule I have always used ACC as my default setting, and on the whole, it's pretty good...

    Outside temperature gone doolally.

    Ive done a search and come up short so....I've left this nearly a week hoping that the car might get a grip of itself. It hasn't. I noticed last week that my outside temperature reading was 29 degrees. Every time I've used it since, it's been over 30. Today when I went out to strip and clean...

    Not MG Specific then.......

    On our first drive in Germany, we were impressed with the Seal aside from one caveat – the overly intrusive driver assistance features. But BYD has worked hard to dial these features back in UK cars; they’re still there to help prevent collisions, but the vicious lane keep assist and irritating...

    Advertising Fisker?

    I take it MGEVs know they are advertising a rival brand?

    Burglary Dartford Style.

    I recieved this @ 13:42 today on whatsapp. Sadly I can't see a way of putting it here. I hope you get to see it. I nearly choked laughing when I saw it. I can only hope it goes viral so you too, can have a really good laugh. 👍🤣 Screengrab

    How much damage to write off your MG4?

    Well not a great deal it seems! I can see the intrusion into the rear, behind the bumper but still.... I guess a lot of it will be to do with the car being relatively 'cheap' to buy, hence the threshold of repair costs, versus replacement is reached earlier. Some interesting photos...

    One of the biggest problems......

    The biggest problem for me, owning a performance EV is the drop off of in power, as you lose battery percentage. This means (to those pre disposed with a disposition the same as mine) That you have to pick your 'battles' carefully. Example. I had a twonk today in an aged Civic Type S, who...

    Anyone crashed their car?

    A brief synopsis..... Travelling along a NSL road in my new Volvo V70 with less than 2000 miles on the clock. A car pulls out of a junction (without looking) to go into a yard. (That's the entrance just behind where my car came to rest) I was doing easily circa 60mph approaching the...

    The All New X Power Forum

    I know the idea of a seperate space for X Power was floated quite early on but didn't gain any traction at the time. Now after many hours of "hard" work by @JonnyG and myself, (behind the scenes) we have our own "safe" space 🤣 for all things X Power. I believe (and you can correct me if I'm...

    MG4 X Power Roll Call.

    Just a bit of fun Chaps. (Any Chapesses?) If you want to add your vehicle and any modifications you have carried out that would be great. I am genuinely interested to see what you have done (or not done) to your cars.👍 My car is in Racing Green which I adore, and is a fascinating colour to...

    What is this???

    So, I have washed my car, by hand, quite a few times since I got it (Sept 23) and I can't say I have ever noticed this......... I only noticed it today when checking for stone chips. As I looked round it, the active flaps were only just closing and I saw the gap. On closer inspection I think...

    MG4 X Power tyre change for the vibration issue

    MG4 Tire Change Roll Call (see this post) Well sadly it seems that the Aussie/NZ fix is making zero difference to the vibrations. Can anyone who has changed tyres on their X Power please tell us if it has made any difference and what you had fitted. I'm sure there is someone on here that has...

    What do you do (while public charging)?

    Because I can only charge away from home, I have a pretty rigid routine. I usually take a Mcds, park up, plug in. Nom. Then.....go for a walk. The second floor of the car park I charge in, is blocked off permanently, so I go up and do laps of it until the cars ready. 4 minutes 36 seconds per...
