I've just experienced the leaking rear window washer leaking into to drivers footwell. Here's some pictures to help others. When I turned the dial for the rear window wash it sounded as if the water was being squirted behind the dashboard directly in front of the driver. It's most likely to be...

I'm looking for some help on clarifying tyre specification for our 71 reg 5 Long Range that came with Cooper tyres. We just had a puncture that required a new tyre. It was noticed that the original tyres are Standard Load which I'm told would be an Mot failure. I've replaced the fronts with...

Does anyone see any effect with adjusting the intermittent wiper dial on the stalk? Each time I use ours I do not see any change in the wipers frequency of sweep.

We've just completed our first year in 5LR at 20k with home charging (Ohme Pro with Bulb EV) showing £759 plus guesstimate rapid charging of about £100. This distance in our old diesel would have been about £3k at 50mpg and £1.60/l. This makes for about £2k saving on fuel.

I always thought the rear view mirror was rubbish at auto dimming until I realised that the centre rear headrest might be blocking the view. I removed the headrest and it works like a charm now.

Just a point from my lesson learnt. When we got our 5LR a year ago the tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS) showed the tyres at 2.0 bar. After coming back from its first service it was still 2.0 bar. So I've always assumed 2.0 bar was correct until I read the pressure figures inside the...

My wife mentioned that the screen wash had run out. I opened a 5l container expecting at least half of it to be used but barely a quarter was used to brim the wash container. I can see this being a frequent task.

Does anyone have recommendations for dog crates for the MG5? Dog (Romanian rescue mixed breed) is small staffy sized 12kg . So what breed and cage do you have?

Has anyone had the same problem as me in that my Ohme Home Pro only gets to 3.8kW charging without the house drawing any other power? Usually I've had to unlock the car, unplug, lock, unlock plug in, lock and then it would get to 7kW. When I got the charger I inadvertently turned on load...

After running the 5LR for 1400 miles since Jan 1st I visited a petrol station for the first time since then for our petrol Matiz. It felt distinctly backwards and old fashioned. Has anyone else had that feeling?

I was wondering how does the KERS3 mode perform when slowing down on icey or slippery roads. Is it safer than using brakes?

Can anyone suggest decent locking wheel nuts for MG5?

How can I check the charging progress outside of the car without unlocking it whilst having the keys in my pocket? If I press the door handle button the car unlocks. If I leave the keys in the house and press the same button the dash simply lights up with the charging percentage.

I've driven hundred miles so I'm just getting used to the 5lr. Whilst turning into a carpark, turning left and apply slight accelerator at about walking speed a wheel spun which I've never experienced in an ice. Is this normal? Road is damp 8c.

I picked up our 5lr today and I have to say it's good. I asked the dealer if the recall update had been done but got a rather noncommittal answer. So how do I check if this has been done? When in KERS 3 the high level brake light does not come on when lifting off but does when I brake normally.

There's a post on here somewhere with a picture of them jacking up their 5EV, to change a wheel, where you can see a silver looking box on the underside which I suppose is the battery housing. The ground clearance doesn't look much and makes me wonder how vulnerable is the underside. There are a...

I was looking at the BP Pulse with a monthly subscription and I was wondering if it is decent value and if they are reliable. Apparently it's the largest network of public chargers.

I'm wondering what the resale or trade-in prices are like for people's MG ev's. Quite a few people here are trading in their ZS ev's for the latest ZS or 5 EV after only a year or two. So, what have been your experience so far?

Has anyone used Smart Home Charge for installing their charging point? Praise, criticism or other suggestions welcomed. I'm looking at an Ohme Pro.

I've just watched this YouTube video of the new MG5 of 2022. At 1:53 it shows a shit of the center display. In the top right corner it mentions charging with possible text "Estimated current range 400m". Now should we be getting excited that this new model has an even greater range than the...
