Hi all, I took my MG5 SR for its first very long drive yesterday, from Guildford to just north of Glasgow (around 440 miles). It would also be the first experience of using a rapid charger (other than based on a quick test at our local Shell garage charger). Suffice to say I was very anxious...

That’s reassuring. Thanks for confirming!

Hi all. I just returned from a week’s holiday and used our MG5 after it had been sitting on the drive for a week. When my wife tried to reverse it off the drive it didn’t want to move but then eventually did after a fairly loud clunking noise from the car. My suspicion is that the parking brake...

Okay - called to query. They have now confirmed £34.20 online price for low mileage 1st service. Booking online is also apparently around £20 cheaper than calling to book for that service. Worth keeping in mind for the future.

Many thanks - I will query this with them.

That's interesting. Was that recently? I just went to book my MG 5 in for its first service at MG Guildford. Online it quotes £34.20. When I called the service cost was quoted as £146.05! I mentioned that it was low mileage (6k) so I was quite shocked.

Recall letter arrived here today too. It will be interesting to see what changes will be implemented in the update.

Many thanks!

I’m thinking of fitting LED lamps as well. If you don’t mind me asking, which ones did you go for?

Just to note that when I returned to the car it was back to normal. I presume being switched off for several hours might have been sufficient for the system to then essentially reboot.

Many thanks - I will try that before I head home.

I had my first blank screen this morning after 3 months of uneventful MG5 motoring. It happened just as I was about to reverse into a parking space. I noticed that the usual screen disappeared as usual but rather than the reversing camera appearing, the screen went blank apart from the top line...

My MG5 is a couple of months old now and only very recently have I needed to use the heater. When it comes on there seems to be a smell which is rather like a faint burning smell. I assume this may be because it is a relatively new heater but wanted check if anyone else has noticed anything...

I bought the PTFE one. I’m not sure how much it matters though.

Thanks for the tip. I just bought some of this in Halfords and it does the job.

I’m just starting to think about charging points. Any particular reason for choosing the Podpoint?

That looks great. I'll be picking up my first EV, an MG5 (in red), at the weekend so will very likely be looking to get the windows tinted like this. Thanks for showing the pictures!
