Yes, I have done this myself for some time on my MG5. Very convenient location.

I leave the air conditioning on all the time as it is a dehumidifier and removes the mist from the inside of the car on cold days and warm humidity on warm days. I just set the temperature I want and if the air needs directing to the wind screen to demist the press the demist button.

As others have said, it is always worth carrying a 7kw Type 2 cable in the car just in case you have to charge and the charger you have found does not have a cable.

yes agreed, so I will look and follow Big Nige's approach (y)

Ah thanks for the clarification !

Hi Big Nige Great write up ! Thanks ! My Chargemaster wallbox has recently stopped talking with the BP server due to the 2G/3G signal being turned off around me. My BP Chargemaster has a 32a charging capacity , so I am thinking that I need a 32a WiFi relay switch to handle the current...

I do, but the car and charger are not connected to WiFi etc

My MG5 short range from January 2021 is charging fine via CCS and my home 7kw charger. However when using a 13a granny charger is stops charging after a few minutes. I have tried three different 13a chargers all with the same fault. But all using the same 13a socket….. My wife‘s Subaru...

My MG5 key fob button was pressed by another set of keys in my pocket and the plastic button broke off. I could not see a long term way of gluing it back on and so I searched eBay and Amazon for replacements as well as considering a new key from MG Guildford. I found this rubberised skin which...

It was end if it was early Feb 2022

I have just bought and installed the new v4.0 version of the Carlinkit Apple CarPlay and Android Auto wireless adaptor to my MG5 (Jan 2021 stand range exclusive). All successful and working well via my iPhone 12. Don’t have an Android phone so don’t know how that works but it is the new key...

my first service at around 4500 miles was quoted at £35 at Richmonds Guildford, but once I had the 3 windscreen wipers replaced and small repair made the final total was £88 including the teddy bear and AA cover

I charge my MG5 standard range once a week on my home 7kw charger over night, so it will go to 100% each time. Only needed to use a rapid charger 4 times in the first year of ownership. Typically it is down to 30% at the end of the week.

The dealer takes the door handle apart, from the outside, and files down part of the mechanism.

The door handle sticking open is a known issue with a known fix. the other update was the piece of paper stapled into the user manual regarding the roof rails weight.

Just checked the invoice and there was actually only one software update, the RC007 Gateway module software update on SIP’s. So I suspect this is the KERS brake light issue.

I had my first service done last Tuesday at Richmond Guildford on my MG 5 Exclusive. All went well and happy with the service, all for £88 Inc VAT for a low mileage service. It included 2 software updates, 1 for the kers 3 break light recall. The MG front mudflats fitted by the dealer only...

I have not heard anything for months. The version I have does not work with my MG5.

Hi there, I have recently purchased a Weather cover to protect my charging port from rain and snow, see attached photo. This works great and is magnetic so sticks to the bonnet. Found on Amazon. I have not found an equivalent to fit over my BP Pulse/Chargemaster home charger, using a pull...
