That's the exact reason I asked for updates on mine. I did explain why I had taken it in and that Miles had mentioned it in the podcast.

They had the car for a full day and contacted MG who said there wasn't any update at all that allowed the ZS to operate the V2L while locked or powered down, and the system showed no updates available. It is possible that the update is only for the LR models. It would be really handy to be able...

Chorley MG Burnley said that there wasn't one when I took my SR Trophy in for updates, they even contacted MG who said you can't use V2L and lock the car. What software versions do you have?

I have the FL SR Trophy and can only use V2L in ready mode and unlocked, anything else and it just turns off after a couple of minutes. My lead is a DIY one with 470ohm resistor

My ZS went in for updates recently and they said it was already up to date (from the beginning of June). I was using V2L with a 470ohm resistor 2 days ago without any issues (heat pump tumble dryer for 4 hours), although the car has to be in ready mode and unlocked or it will turn off.

I'm still not convinced that the battery heating always on toggle on my SR Trophy actually does anything. 2hrs15 of driving with it on in 0c temperatures, plugged in at a 135kw/h charger and it sat on 31kw/h for over 30mins heating the battery (eventually maxed out at 48kw/h which is the fastest...

My car went in for that update and was there all day and then they said there isn't an update and the system is meant to work only with the car on and unlocked 🤷‍♂️

I can remove the cable by unlocking the car (tested today after my charger was fixed)

Yep, tried that multiple times, V2L output stops unless the car is on ready mode and unlocked.

Just had a call from Burnley branch and they said they've had a reply from MG saying there's no update to allow V2L whilst off and locked as it's designed to be used with the car on and unlocked 🤷‍♂️

Not a silly question at all :) I have, it turns off after a minute or so

So does that mean it can't be updated for the V2L whilst locked/turned off then? Just wondering what happens next if its saying there's no update. By the way, I appreciate you responding and contacting them :)

Burnley branch. I've just arrived there now to collect it but they're still checking something.

Chorley MG have just called to say there's no update available, so now I'm definitely confused. They're keeping hold of the car for another couple of hours to try and find any info, but when they plug it in for updates it's saying nothing is available. @Miles Roberts CG - are you able to offer...

No, it didn't trip it. Tried everything, but it's totally dead.

It's totally dead, isn't powering up at all. It charged to about 75% overnight before it died. It failed to charge on Friday night, so something was definitely wrong with it then. Hopefully they can get an engineer out quickly, it's a bit too cold to be granny charging through an open window at...

Oh and I'd check the AC charging, but my Ohme Home Pro packed in last night - second one in 6 months.

That's the update I've asked for as I'm starting to use the V2L more.

I usually stop the charge first so not sure (or it's stopped via schedule). Honestly can't remember a time I've tried to remove the charger cable without stopping it first.

I'll see what they say, although the person I booked it in with didn't know what I was talking about and asked how I knew there was an update. As for the HV lockup warning, my car hasn't had an update since I collected it in June, so I don't know whether that update was out before then or...
