    Two new issues

    I’ve had the wiper thing with the ready light. Presumed it was from rushing the start up process. Pulled up, switched on and off and all worked well again.

    MG 5 Excite roof bars / roof rack

    These look identical to the universal fit ones I got off eBay for cars without roof rails. They have two different types of clips for attaching to the lip of the roof in the door arches. I couldn’t get either clip to fit

    Charging - I charge my MG5 with the supplied MG charger but the 100% charge milage achieved is around 185 miles and no where near the 235 miles that

    So 100% charge is 100% charge, but the range is dependent on mi/kWh- driving style, weather, temperature etc that is what gives you the miles per kwh. And the GOM goes off the recent mi/kWh you have been getting. So 100% charge will give you more range in summer and if you have been driving more...

    Charging - I charge my MG5 with the supplied MG charger but the 100% charge milage achieved is around 185 miles and no where near the 235 miles that

    The GOM isn’t totally accurate, it’s a guessometer. It is based on your recent driving style, and will be affected by the weather, temperature and how fast you drive/accelerate. You can reset the trip computers to set it back to the advertised distance. Also switch off the aircon and put in Eco...

    MG5 Reversing Camera Lag

    Yes I find it’s way off straight, need to use mirrors and visual checks to correct it, but then again I don’t think you should just be using the camera alone

    Wipers not working.

    I have had this once on my pre facelift SR. Stop and start cleared the fault. I think it was caused by trying to switch things on too quickly on start up

    Kers 3 at 100% on MG5 (also missing DAB Radio)

    Is there a little box in the glove compartment with a USB wire to plug in for the DAB radio? I thought that was the temporary work around while they wait for the chips to arrive. My SR will only allow KERS 3 once I get to 95% or below

    Overall Average miles/kWh

    3.6 over winter? I wish! I’ve been lucky to get to 3 with my heavy foot, I was pleased to get 4.3 today with the temperature in double figures and no rain clouds in sight

    TPMS reset

    I think you need a dealer or someone else with access to the software = £££ Or like @Jomarkh says remember which wheel is in which place after the switch

    Interior light mg5 non facelift

    I don’t think they’d do any damage, it’s not like they are glued on with solvent, and I’ll probably leave them in and highlight them as an upgrade to get a bit more for the trade in value 😂😂😂

    Interior light mg5 non facelift

    Finally got round to solving this problem with my MG5 SR Excite (just as the gloomy winter nights are ending!). I got a pair of usb LED push on/off lights from Amazon and fitted them below the grab handles above each passenger door, they work perfectly and you can easily find them to activate in...

    MG5 Drivers display gone

    Another update: New unit fitted today and all back to normal. Spent the last few weeks just keeping it topped up and only doing routes I had done before so knew what charge it would use. I had a Fiat 500 as a courtesy car, and aside from the size issue for a tall guy it really made me...

    Update: Was in for diagnostic check today and the unit is being replaced as it’s kaput.

    Left leg RHD Facelift

    I’m 6’4” and have no issues with the foot rest or seat position. Admittedly I don’t do many miles but have done some runs over 100 miles without any aches at the end

    MG5 Drivers display gone

    Happily driving along and the driver’s display has suddenly gone, just some blurred lines. So no speedo (fortunately got the manual one), no way to see remaining charge or GOM, no way to check 12v charge, no way to verify mileage, no way to confirm lights on etc., nothing. Can hear indicators...

    'Emergency Key'

    On the drivers door handle, use the key to prise off the little cover

    MG5 Washer Jets Freezing

    I just followed the pipes from the front left hand/driver side to the front wipers and reservoir to check they were connected. You can see the washer pipes with the motor cover on and take that off and you can follow the pipe to the reservoir

    MG5 Washer Jets Freezing

    I had to use my largest flat head and rotate and prise it out, after the smaller heads just scratched the surface! I also found I needed to work the panel out from the back of each side. Also some of the blue plastic clips need to be pulled out and put on the panel before you put it back on

    MG5 Washer Jets Freezing

    Think this just happened to me! Cleared rear window with the heater, wiped the excess water off with rear wiper but think I put it on spray instead of just wipe. Looked out back when driving and there was water spraying out the back which seemed to be coming from around the rear wiper. Checked...
