    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...

    Rolec charger - charging loss

    Hi, I’ve had a Rolec wall charger since getting the car last November. There’s always been a bit of a loss which I expect from the cable etc, but the last two charges seem to have really bad losses in terms of what Kwh the charger is drawing and what is getting into the car. Today I started the...

    Old topic revisited

    Just did a balance charge after running down the % after getting the car back from the garage. Reset the trip computers and it gave 214miles in the GOM with everything switched off in Eco but dropped to 193miles with the air con on but no heat. 10% loss in range just for the air con. In the real...

    Parts availability?

    Bugger! That’s pretty much all I have to say after this morning! Waiting for the garage to take it away and leave me a courtesy car, but does anyone know what the parts availability is? How long have others been waiting for their repairs? I’m dreading having a tiny ICE instead of my 5.

    How to view SOC while charging SR Excite

    When I plug in to charge the display shows current SOC and time to full charge, but this screen disappears after a few seconds. Is there any way to keep that screen on while charging? Or viewing while in charge? Searching the forum I’ve seen some suggestions to view it but not all work for the...

    Manually releasing the charging port lock

    So I just finished charging my MG5 SR and the cable was stuck in the front of the car. Came back in to check the manual and it says to remove the front compartment decorative cover - does that mean the whole top tray? If so not sure what I’d have done if I was away from home without my tools...

    What does SW mean?

    Random thought but the full title is MG5 SW EV on the back badge, what does SW actually stand for?

    Physical log book

    Hi So when I collected my MG5 SR I got given the little black leatherette folder with the manuals in, but I didn’t really look at them till I got home. I then realised that there is nowhere to record the services or to confirm the radio code etc. I spoke to the dealer and they said there is no...

    Which charging cable?

    Hi Newbie question: I’ve just bought my MG5 and am loving it. I have ordered a 7kWh home charger but I’m not sure what charging cable to buy. For 99% of the time I will be charging at home, so a 32amp 7kWh cable is fine. But, there will be times when I will need to do a rapid charge if we go...
