    Car Unresponsive to App

    Well, I can confirm that I was able to remotely unlock the car. It can be awakened from sleep mode by pressing the door button without the presence of the key. Problem solved!

    Many thanks for this - It really does help. It confirms that it goes to sleep and needs waking up. I am hoping that pressing the button on the handle without the key present will be sufficient! Thx again!

    Car Unresponsive to App

    So I park my car (2024 Trophy) on a friend's drive and plug it in. We both go away for a week. Its day 6 now and he is on his way home - the plan was for me to unlock the car remotely so he can get his charging lead back and then charge his car. Unfortunately, despite working reliably until now...

    VOTE TESLA SUPERCHARGES with MG5

    73 Plate FL Trophy. Didn't work on delivery. Had to argue hard to have the software applied as the dealer denied that MGs could charge from Tesla. Eventually got the update and works fine.

    Tesla Supercharger Issue MG5 LR

    EMG in Ipswich have the right attitude. They solved my Forward camera issue that came as a result of my Supercharger upgrade - It took 3 visits though but that was down to the 'process' that the MG collective imposes on everyone drawn into the web...

    Tesla Supercharger Issue MG5 LR

    Mine is new and so I complained that the MG web site said it could charge from Public Chargers so I expect to be able to use it on public chargers with CCS such as Tesla. They explained that only recently (25th Jan) had MG released a service bulletin that allows dealers to do software updates...

    Tesla Supercharger Issue MG5 LR

    I That would be very helpful as although I have an appointment 180 miles away to have it done in a few weeks, I really would prefer to get it done locally. A document reference with a source email and date would be helpful :)

    Tesla Supercharger Issue MG5 LR

    So - I had a call from the 'Master Tech'! Apparently there was a letter came out from MG on 25th Jan. Prior to that and the introduction of a new software package to make sure the correct updates are applied, MG would have to authorise any software updates on an individual basis. The...

    Tesla Supercharger Issue MG5 LR

    As an aside, I thought I would take a little advice on the Consumer Rights Act of 2015 from Blackbelt barrister on YT. It would seem that if we consider the inability to charge at a Supercharger as a fault, then we have 30 days and possibly up to 6 months in certain cases to reject the car. The...

    Tesla Supercharger Issue MG5 LR

    and @slmorgan42 . My dealer conversation today went like this: "Its a paid upgrade." (Lengthy discussion about why none of this was mentioned pre-sale) How much is it? "Don't know". Well why don't we find out in case we're spending ages on the phone over a fiver? "OK" Now waiting for a...

    Tesla Supercharger Issue MG5 LR

    I tend to agree. I had a breakthrough today when I went to a Fastned and locked the car after plugging in. Then I activated it and it charged! After a few minutes (and a Greggs) I disconnected, drove round the block and tried again, this time with the car unlocked - it charged again! I...

    Tesla Supercharger Issue MG5 LR

    Many thanks for the replies so far! I am in a dialogue between 2 dealers, the selling dealer and my local one. The selling dealer (SD) told me to go to the local dealer. The local dealer in Colchester says its chargeable work to diagnose and upgrade the software (that should have been upgraded...

Newmarket (Tesla v4), Trumpington (Tesla v3), Trumpington (Shell), Colchester (Fastned). Called the supplying dealer (Baylis, Gloucester) - said they would call me back - after saying...
