    Washer Fluid Low Level Warning

    Yeh. Don’t think you can blame someone for expecting the MG to have a windscreen washer level warning, when it has “Radar” fitted.

    Washer Fluid Low Level Warning

    Yeh, discovered this on ZS EV 18 months ago. Unbelievable with all the other tech on these EVs. Dangerous too, if like us you expected it and ran out of fluid in middle of freezing journey.🙈🙈🙈

    New ZSEV Handbook released

    Hi. I think MG class a type 2 as “slow charging”. The grannny and type 2 are slow charging for HV balancing. Cheers.

    OCTOPUS GO Price Increase

    Hi Andy. I think Go/Go Faster is still available and they should give it you backdated because of their error. Have Octopus given you the backdated Go Faster tariff and compensated you? It took them 4 months at the end of last year to get my meter sorted and they backdated mine and gave me...

    Heating in EV Mode

    Hi. Agree. I have nothing against anyone who wants to buy a Phev and was interested in the Kia phev myself, but wanted to minimise my Co2. I also read the service for the Kia phev was £600+ ? My first year service was £49. Doing a 2000 mile holiday next week. Have fun.

    Heating in EV Mode

    This is why a phev doesn’t really work to help stop climate change. No heating without engine? So winter EV only mileage doesn’t exist in practice. If the ICE is charging the battery it must be less efficient than a normal ICE because of loss of energy in conversion. The official figures are as...

    Zero Range with Remaining SOC 6%!!!!

    I wouldn’t rely on info on screen when you are plugged in charging at home. I have noticed that it displays slightly higher figures compared to gom when I unplug and check after a full charge. Get a Veepeak OBDll BLE+ car scanner or similar if you are going to be running so close to zero? You...

    Will the MG Marvel R come to the UK?

    I understand what you are saying. I have a rattle at front and steering click which I hope to get rectified. My dealer service has been great. I like the Skoda as well and would consider the new Nissan Ayera if built in U.K. My last car was a new Skoda Superb Exclusive 2016, thinking it was VW...

    Rolec/ev.energy

    Hi. I sent you a message on another thread. Are you still on a single tariff? I am on Go Faster after taking 5 months to get smart meters, so have charged on a single tariff until recently and now only occasionally with Covid. I can see from my display that the car is balance charging, but it...

    MG5 EV Exclusive in Westminster Silver order placed -- charger options?

    Hi. I realise it’s been a while. I have a Rolec which I am hoping will start it’s Smart charge scheduled at 8.30pmm. I think I have to get out of the car, lift the charge port, lock car on door, then plug in cable and lock car with key fob. I didn’t have the bad BMS but had a new BMS update with...

    Gallaghers Chester - MG Dealer Discussion, Opinions & Experiences

    Hi. Forgot to say I haven’t a service plan, because I couldn’t see any benefit and have done 5900 miles. You should have got a check list. Do you think they forgot because you had the other work done? Well I assume making you pay should have reminded them. Good luck.

    Gallaghers Chester - MG Dealer Discussion, Opinions & Experiences

    Hi. I was sorry to read of your experience. From reading posts, it seems things do seem to go wrong sometimes when they are upgrading software and it obviously takes a while when the dealer has to ask MG for help. My comfort 2 took 4 hours instead of 1. Not sure why you were treated as you were...

    Gallaghers Chester - MG Dealer Discussion, Opinions & Experiences

    Brilliant service yesterday at Gallaghers, Chester, when my MG ZS EV had its first year, low mileage service, costing £49. Car was washed afterwards and spare screen wash provided. BMS update was completed. Today I was emailed a video taken during the service, showing the underside of the...

    Gallaghers Chester - MG Dealer Discussion, Opinions & Experiences

    Hi. Sorry to hear problem you are having. Bought mine from this dealer and have had software updates and my service due soon. I think they have been short staffed with Covid and Wales lockdown rules. Not satisfactory. I am in Little Sutton, England. I would suggest you phone their other branch...

    MG ZS EV has no under-engine bay splash shield

    Interesting reading this post. I suppose the obvious reason for a large hole under the engine compartment would seem to be cost saving. However, I had wondered why the front grill of my MG ZS EV was all holes and not a solid design like the Kia e-Niro. Could it be that because the car was...

    ZS EV - Few questions from the newbie

    I think the 12v battery is full when it is showing 12v and charging when showing 13v or 14v. It charges from High Voltage battery when car is in ready mode and unplugged. Also when plugged in. I think, especially in winter, it is good idea to fully charge at home and let it continue...
