    How old is the infotainment processor ?

    I noticed on the infotainment screen that you can't just tap to select things, you have to press and hold, only for about a second, but it makes it unsafe if you have to select anything whilst driving. FWIW the screen is clean. I was wondering this morning, as the system booted up and declared...

    Self aware ?

    I think my car is alive. Today I unlocked the car, opened the door to look at the tyre pressure label and shut and locked the door. I then opened the boot and the radio came on, it had put itself into accessory mode. I didn't touch the seat or even go in the car. Unlocking and relocking the car...

    Workshop manual ?

    Is there an english version of a workshop manual available for the MG4 ? I came across this one on Ebay but it's in Italy so I'm not sure if it's in English and it is a bit expensive. MANUALE OFFICINA SAIC MG4 EV WORKSHOP MANUAL | eBay

    Heated seat and steering wheel keep turning off.

    Nearly every time I put the heated seat and steering wheel on it turns off when the HVAC screen closes, I have to open it and turn them on again. Am I missing a step or something when I turn them on ?

    Radio didn't turn off when locked.

    Strange behaviour today from the radio and the first time this has happened. Firstly the infotainment system rebooted as I was driving along, the radio was still playing while it was rebooting. Next, when I arrived at my destination I locked the car and the radio kept playing when I locked and...

    Liking Snow mode ;o)

    Tried snow mode today as there was a light covering on our road and I'm loving it. It's so smooth on take off and unlike eco mode, the brakes don't feel soggy. The regen being less severe worked great on a steep hill I go down where, in normal mode, I usually have to press the accelerator a bit...

    Accumulated total zeroed itself.

    For some reason the "accumulated total" on the economy screen zeroed itself today. Does it do this after so many miles or is it just yet another software glitch ? I was hoping to leave this as a lifetime show of economy, but now it's gone down to the same as the "From start" screen which is...

    End of BST

    Just a heads up for those whose car clock didn't go back this weekend, use GPS time in the general settings.

    Car thinks it's big.

    Has anyone else noticed that LKA would rather crash into parked cars than cross the central white line, even when you don't actually cross the white line. My car seems to think it's bigger than it actually is. It's the same when I reverse off the drive or into a tight space, the sensors go...

    Ready or not ?

    I noticed that when I start the car and press the brake to get into ready mode, if I get out of the car faffing about for a while the "READY" indicator on the screen is no longer there when I get back in. Is the car still in ready mode or has it dropped back to accessory mode ? The reason I ask...

    "P" for park

    Just wondering if the 4 has a parking pawl in the transmission which engages when you press "P" on the selector. I know the gen 1 ZS didn't, "P" just engaged the handbrake on the rear wheels, but the MG4 manual says "P" locks the transmission and there is a slight rock and a metallic clunk sound...

    Are the left and right active grill shutters separate ?

    I noticed that when I've just finished charging my Trophy at home, the passenger side active grill shutter is open but the driver's side one is not. I thought they were all one shutter, are they separate left and right or is mine broken ?

    Rubbish windscreen washers.

    Am I the only one having trouble getting the windscreen washers to actually put fluid on the screen ? No matter where I position the nozzles they just blast a fine spray off the wiper arms or if I aim them above the wiper arm they spray the roof. Either way it's a fine mist and not a jet as I'm...

    New rattle

    9 weeks in, my MG4 has developed a buzz/rattle in the driver's side rear door. Noticed it going over rough surfaces and it rattles when you thump the door, sounds like a loose bracket inside the door. Anyone else had this ?

    Funniest greeting message

    What interesting or funny greeting messages have owners configured in to their infotainment systems, mine is just on the random one at the moment ?

    Can't play videos.

    Is the video format the same as it was on the ZS ? I have a USB stick with some music in .mp3 format and some films on in .m4v format that played ok on my old Gen 1 ZS. On the MG4 the music plays ok but the car can't see the films it just displays "no video" on the screen.

    Basic charging.

    Just a couple of questions. I had the Gen1 2020 ZS, now have the MG4. Can I just unlock the 4, plug my Pod Point in and lock the car to initiate charging like I did with the ZS ? If I unlock the 4 whilst charging does it stop the charge, as the ZS did ? Can I just use the Pod Point's schedule to...

    How's your Piano Black shiny roof holding up ?

    Just got my Trophy today and noticed how shiny the roof is. Looks lovely, but is it a chore to keep it shiny or does it dull anyway ?

    Bye Bye ZS, Hello MG4

    Well I've gone and done it, traded the old faithful Red Gen 1 ZS for a Volcano Orange MG4 Trophy long range, I pick it up on the 3rd of June. I initially enquired about the 0% finance deal that ends June 30th at our local dealers, thinking maybe it was too late due to delivery times and was told...
