    Thanks all, buy back seems to be a reasonable response! Dan

    Group advice sought - been without my car for 5 months.

    Afternoon all. On a sunny day in September 2023, I opened the roof on my 22 reg ZS SR Trophy and there was a horrible scrunching sound, the roof blind had somehow detached itself from the runners and failed. I've had a few cars with glass roofs so I'm aware of how they work, never had this...

    Open Tesla Supercharge Issues

    "Unplugged in" and the upside down 8s are my favourites.

    Open Tesla Supercharge Issues

    A knackered Pod Point rapid locked its cable in my car, I'm now well versed in where the (flimsy!) emergency release pull is!

    Open Tesla Supercharge Issues

    I needed to charge away from home today so I called by Tesla at the Trafford Centre again. My "usual" charger was in use so I had to use one further up the rank. The 1st attempt to charge failed, it appears that the car had difficulty in locking the charger plug in place. I simply held the...

    Steering column clicking sound

    I’d previously tried tightening the 2 bolts either side of the steering column but that didn’t fix it for long. What seems to have fixed it for me was removing the wiper arms, the scuttle panel and tightening the bolt on the bulkhead near the wiper motor assembly.

    Steering column clicking sound

    Mileage complete, still no knocking sound. Declaring that one fixed.

    Open Tesla Supercharge Issues

    Trafford Centre and Flint Mountain (where my avatar was taken!) have both worked fine for me, ZS Trophy SR - I couldn't get the Mk1 ZS I had previously to charge at a Tesla site though (same issue as below I suspect) Couldn't get 2 or 3 BP Pulse/Polar CCS chargers in Milton Keynes to work for me...

    Steering column clicking sound

    Yep tightening the one under the scuttle panel (driver's side, under the wiper assembly) seems to have sorted mine out. Simple enough job to do with the right tools (a wiper arm puller is essential) and took less than an hour. I've a 500 mile round trip this week so that should loosen things up...

    Steering column clicking sound

    I taped and lubed where I couldn't tape, when they have it in for a service they're going to think I've driven through a branch of Ann Summers. Agree it's worse in cold weather, but this all seems to have settled it, at least for now!

    Steering column clicking sound

    I had the "2nd issue" - I'd tried tightening the 2 bolts either side of the steering column but that only solved the problem for a few miles. What appears to have fixed it finally is removing the scuttle panel and tightening the bolt on the bulk head. The process was rather simple once I'd...

    Decent rubber mats

    Nothing on my invoice or email confirmation I’m afraid.

    Decent rubber mats

    I had a set of “high tec” rubber mats from eBay, which were OK but I wanted a tray style like these new ones as I find they hold water better, for snowy and rainy weather when you’re getting in with wet shoes.

    Decent rubber mats

    Not for the ZS EV, they do for the ZS auto Petrol but apparently they don’t fit the ZS EV.

    Decent rubber mats

    Good enough to contain fruit shoot, yoghurt, vomit and other child detritus by the look of it.

    Decent rubber mats

    OK, mats received. They're made of a similar material to the official MG boot liner. It's not a hard rubberised plastic material (like the OE Skoda floor trays in my wife's Kodiaq) so there's a bit of "give" in them. I'm happy with the fit and finish, would be nice if they slotted in around the...

    Decent rubber mats

    I've just ordered a set of these from a company in Birmingham. Will update you all on my thoughts when I receive them - just in time for the sunny weather!

    Open Tesla Supercharge Issues

    I've heard from drivers of other EVs (Hyundai and VW) that they struggle at some Tesla sites, but I've charged successfully at Trafford Centre and Flint Mountain fine. Incidentally, my Mk1 ZS wouldn't charge at these sites though!

    Open Tesla Supercharge Issues

    I used the Tesla Supercharger at Manchester Trafford Centre 3 weeks ago to charge my ZS Mk2 - no issues to report, worked fine and cheaper than the others in the area.
