    Tesla Supercharger Issue MG5 LR

    A very common issue with many so-called online Help or Support staff. As you say, they have scripts from which they read and know nothing other than what is written in front of them.

    😣POOR HEADLIGHTS😣. 👍🏻NOW SORTED👍🏻

    Are you sure?? I can see mine back to 2003, which was when I first bought something from the site, I suspect.

    OBD2 MG5 PFL LR

    Hi, thanks for this. It would be "nice" (from my point of view!) if that were the case but the reason for the problem was "user-error" (aka stupidity). I had selected the wrong profile in the app, simple as that! 😳😳

    SOC different between car and OBDII scanner report

    Having finally resolved exactly why I could not see any results using Car Scanner Pro and OBDII dongle (I had selected the wrong profile in the app!!) I now see a strange anomalous difference between the car's own display and the data in the app. Specifically, the car shows my State of Charge...

    OBD2 MG5 PFL LR

    Haven't tried that app, yet, and mine is the Exclusive. I've actually received a reply from the app developer telling me to "Use the correct profile". I've replied asking him to confirm which is the correct profile. (I suspect the problem is user (my) error. I chose the "MG5 (2021 - 2022)"...

    Tesla Supercharger Issue MG5 LR

    Yes, if you want to retain your free AA cover, not to mention the checks that they do on tyres, brakes, battery condition etc. The general opinion and experience of other owners of the SR variant here seems to be, No, sorry!

    Unusual siri incoming call when car starts

    @Jonny5 A 71 plate model is definitely a "pre-facelift". The "facelift" MG5 (sometimes called the "version 2") was first available in either late 2022 or early 2023. Since there are no other Bluetooth phones than yours shown in the menu I think you may have to consult a dealer to help...

    OBD2 MG5 PFL LR

    I bought a NEXAS NexLink OBDII dongle in 2023 and it worked perfectly with Car Scanner Pro on my 2022 pre-facelift MG5. Now, the app shows no data at all, using either the MG5 (2021-2022) profile, or the suggested Roewe alternative. I have sent a message (and error log from the app) to the...

    Tesla Supercharger Issue MG5 LR

    I have the same car, also from March 22 and, as I reported earlier in this thread, the update was done for mine, free of charge, just a few weeks ago. No hardware change was required. I am yet to test whether Tesla Open Charging is available to me - there are no such chargers anywhere within a...

    Tesla Supercharger Issue MG5 LR

    Agree 100%! Are we to assume, therefore, that, either MG failed to follow that standard on the earliest models, or the standard changed after the release date of those models?

    Tesla Supercharger Issue MG5 LR

    Based on evidence seen here from owners of the MG5s of that type and vintage, I fear this may well be wholly correct. But it still seems very unfair to those early adopters of the car!

    MG5 review after covering 120,000 miles.

    Indeed! My wife and I spent the day in Cambridge yesterday. I've never seen so many MG5s in one city at the same time, and the majority were taxis, both Facelift and Pre-Facelift.

    TPMS fault

    Sorry, I've only just seen this because I didn't get any notification that you'd tagged me! For a considerable number of years I have dealt with Charles Warner in Lincoln (Outer Circle Road), buying a number of cars, both Vauxhall and MG from them. So, I'm a very long-standing customer! BUT...

    Tesla Supercharger Issue MG5 LR

    I have quite a "late" pre-facelift (registered March 22) and it certainly does not have 3-phase charging.

    Tesla Supercharger Issue MG5 LR

    Are you sure about this? I didn't think any of the pre-facelift cars had the 11 kW charging, i.e., 3 phase. My understanding is that that feature came first to early facelift models.

    VOTE TESLA SUPERCHARGES with MG5

    Non facelift LR. 22 plate. Update done, free of charge, but not been able to test yet due to lack of Superchargers anywhere near where I live.

    Is there such a thing as an ev charger protector?

    Amazon Warehouse is currently offering this. HTH.

    Tesla Supercharger Issue MG5 LR

    I rather agree! Mine is a 22 plate and the Tesla Update has, apparently, been done, easily and at no cost to me. I say "apparently" because there are no Tesla Superchargers anywhere near where live so I cannot verify the update. @Archev , what plate is yours? If it is a 21 this could give...

    Unusual siri incoming call when car starts

    @Jonny5 Welcome to the MGEV forums. First, there is no need to use an external host for images. They can be inserted directly into posts, using this icon: I think the image suggests you have a pre-facelift 5. Is that correct? If so, was it bought brand new or second-hand? I have never...

    Tesla Supercharger Issue MG5 LR

    @Rookery I am one of those owners of a pre-facelift MG5 whose dealer has done the update, at no cost to me! Currently, due to a dearth of the requisite Tesla chargers in my area of the country I have been unable to ascertain whether it works, but ... You need to "persuade" your dealer...
