    Knocking noise from rear suspension

    Sorry if this isn't a great explanation, but just noticed a loud 'knock' coming from the rear of the car when going over potholes, speed bumps etc. Never done it before. Not sure it would be picked up on a recording if I did one, so trying to explain here instead! It's almost like heaving a...

    Will Halfords fit a dash cam?

    I've done a few searches and read a few posts regarding dash cam fitting for the MG5 and noticed there's conflicting reports on Halfords ability to fit a dash cam to an EV. I'm booked in this Sunday for a fitting so time will tell, but wondered if anyone else has been successful with Halfords...

    ChargePoint £10 extra charge

    I used a ChargePoint charger for the first time at McArthur Glen Cheshire Oaks the other day. Downloaded the app, setup an account, added a payment method and (finally) got charging. All good and charged fully at a cost of £10. BUT, one thing that REALLY bugs me about setting up a ChargePoint...

    Anyone successfully converted the 'frunk'?

    I've had a search around the forum and can find very little regarding building storage under the bonnet of the MG5. A few users have built something for the ZS, but there's very little regarding the 5. There's a good example on this video around the 2min 20 mark ((1) 2021 Electric MG5 LR -...

    Anyone tried ZapMap Premium to get Apple CarPlay?

    Trying to load ZapMap in my car today for the first time and noticed it refuses to load. I've read up on it and understand you require a Premium subscription to use it via Apple CarPlay. Has anyone tried it, and if so, do you think its worth it?

    Collection question

    I'll be picking up my new MG5 from the dealer this Monday. I'm trying to sort insurance out for the pickup day, but at the moment the car registration is not getting recognised since its not registered with the DVLA. The dealer said it gets registered on the day of collection. They said they're...

    Aldi Roof Bars / Box

    I'll be (hopefully) picking up my MG5 in a couple of weeks and wanted to see if anyone has used the Aldi roof bars / box with theirs? I'm fully aware of the 35kg limit but we'll be using this for some bulky / light camping stuff like sleeping bags. Or, does anyone have an experience of other...

    Granny charger waterproof?

    Stupid question of the week award, but I assume the supplied MG granny charger is full waterproof? As in, the entire unit? I have an outdoor socket near where I part that I'll be using for meantime until I can decide on which wall box to go for.

    MG5 Tow bar again

    I'm still confused! I'm pretty sure you can't fit a tow bar to the MG5 but a local MG dealership has just confirmed you can. I'd be looking to tow a small trailer so nothing major. Does anyone else have any further info please? Much appreciated.

    Lead time on leasing

    I was looking to lease a new MG5 until I had a chat with a lease company today - I was informed the average lead time was around 5 months! Can I ask if anyone else has leased (or indeed simply purchased brand new) and if so what their lead time was please?

    Which wall charger?

    Hi. First post here! I'm thinking of purchasing an MG5 and unsure as to which wall charger I should opt for. Is there a general consensus on what brands to go for / avoid? And does it make any difference who my energy supplier is as to what box I get? Thanks in advance for your feedback!
