My MG5 is coming up to its second service at just over 20k miles. Just had a quote from Glyn Hopkin for £380. This seems outrageous to me. Anyone had similar experiences?

Warning about using Charged EV - This is a warning to all considering using this company and especially their Indra Smart Pro charger. I made the big mistake of having one of these fitted over 2 years ago. It ain't a pro and it is certainly not Smart! It worked for a year then developed...

You are having a terrible experience and have my sympathy. The only solution seems to be as you say reject car - good luck and please let us know how you get on. Regarding the auto parking brake, I have the same issue. The auto hold should reset after every journey not matter how short the time...

On the subject of wipers. On my MG5 exclusive the front intermittent have a mind of their own. Sometimes they work as expected using the settings that I have made regarding frequency. However they can they start scrubbing a dry screen or just not working when there is a deluge of water and you...

I can you please tell me how you set the "limiter"

After turning off the speed limit warning, after a few days it turns its self back on again! Is this the same for everyone? Or is it a trip back to the dealers for me to get it fixed?

Just a thought. If you activate the sat nav that also gives speed limits and does not always agree with the recognition camera. This is understandable with temporary limits - but other times - who do you believe? Always best to relay on the mark one eye ball!

Just got back from our holiday cottage rental. They had installed outside water proof 3 pin sockets and charged an extra £20 to use these to charge your EV. I thought this was fair.

I think this was the case on earlier models as the switch did nothing. Now it shows range in the centre of the dashboard but this is constantly displayed in the lower left of the dash board!

Traveling from Chelmsford Essex to Chinley Derbyshire - 198 miles. This was our first long journey in our MG5 LR. Indeed out first EV long journey! Theoretically we should be able to do this on one charge but I had my suspicions that this would not be possible - I was proved right! I planned to...

Here are the little quirks I have found after 5 months and 6k miles; - 1) Auto parking brake brake should switch off after each journey - sometimes it does sometimes not 2) Once lane departure is set on menu you can turn it off by pushing blue button on end of indicator stalk. But the first time...

Just been on holiday in the Peek district in our MG5 LR exclusive. Weather was very good and temperatures around 15 degrees. Did around 700 miles and averaged around 3.9 miles per Kw after leaving the accumulated total for the entire week. Not much motorway driving mainly 60 and 50mph max. When...

Hello - Yes I have researched this but it is not the case of putting a start time in the machine which is - ChargedEV https://www.chargedev.co.uk/at-home/smart You can set a duel tariff and it starts to charge during this period but you cannot limit the charging to this time period. I have...

Thank you for this. I was not aware of the other Octopus tariffs. I am unable to make any time settings on my charger which is from ChargedEV. The car starts to charge during the cheap rate that I have set on the charger but it keeps on going till 100% regardless of whether it is balancing or...

Thank you for this. I too am with Octopus Go a few questions :- 1) It is 4hrs a night for me -0030 to 0430 - is this just a typo? 2) How do you manage to limit the charging to this amount of time? As far as I am aware there is no facility with the MG5 to set timing of charge. Do you set the...

Thank you. I do understand this but once you do this the screen changes to another and you need to go back to the original screen so that the curser stays on the screen and follows the direction of travel. This is very wordy I know but if you do zoom out in this way eventually the curser...

I love Sat Nav on cars and use it all the time. The system on my MG5LR is not the best - lots of information but I find fiddly to use, but I will persevere. But can anyone tell me how I zoom out so I can see the next junction? I know I can move my fingers across the screen but this then moves to...

I believe that the estimate is based on your previous driving performance and economy. If you reset the overall driving performance then it should jump to around 250. But this is a very optimistic estimate at this time of the year. I am currently getting around 3.2 miles per kWh. Temperature...

Thanks

Thanks for this. Do you mean the slight revision that has just been released or the completely revamped model that will come out some time next year? My MGLR Exclusive was only registered in October and does not have this function.
