    Wishlist/'must haves' for next version of the ZS EV?

    I personally would like to see an all electric version of the HS. I still love my ZS EV MK1 which is 3.5 years old now and I need something a bit larger. I have been looking at the New Ford Explorer which looks to be similar size to a Range Rover Evoke on the videos, but a recent You Tube video...

    Worn out seat! Anyone else?

    I have a 2020 ZS that I have only driven 7300 miles in and the front drivers seat too showed signs of cracking in the material on both the back and seat bolsters. I mentioned this to my MG Dealer in Burnley and they fobbed it off as just a crease in the upholstery where I had been sitting, but...

    Zappi Home Charger

    Hi Tosh, No I don't have solar panels or any plans for them right now. I have been on Octopus GO for a couple of years but it has been hit and miss with regards to half hour readings through my SMETS 2 Meter and more recently, they have lost all communication with it except for GAS. An engineer...

    Zappi Home Charger

    I have a 4 year old ROLEC Dumb Charger, that works just fine to charge my ZS EV Mk1 which I still have, but we have just taken delivery on a new MG4 X Power which unless you set the charger to come on first, then the Car to come on second, the box keep going on and off every 30 seconds or so...

    Corroded rear brakes

    Thanks for the replies and advice. I have now adopted a new way of driving to prevent premature corrosion in future. Firstly, I now start any journey on REGEN 1 rather than running all the time on REGEN 3. Secondly, I try to use the Automatic Cruise Control (ACC) or MG Pilot more even when...

    Thatcham Approved Alarm Fitted???

    Hi, I have owned my MG ZS EV since September 2020 (70 Plate) and its time to renew the insurance once again. This year it seems too have rocketed by almost £200 since last year despite no claims, 12 year + NC Discount, clean license, being 66 years of age and a low mileage off less than 2,000 a...

    Corroded rear brakes

    Yes you are probably right, the garage told me something similar as it could have been down to the low mileage. So to exercise the breaking more, would it be better to reduce the severity of the regen braking to lower level i.e. 1 or 2 and use the pedal more? Andy

    Corroded rear brakes

    Just had my ZS EV turn 3 years old (70 plate) with only 6317 miles on the clock and today I took it into my dealer in Burnley for its 3rd service and First MOT. After leaving the car for an hour, I received a phone call from the dealer saying the mechanic says the back brake hubs are badly...

    New update seems to have improved Emergency Braking

    I don't think its just a coincidence as the Warning audible alert has become more frequent than before, I am monitoring it as its only three days since I got the car back from service. Maybe the garage did more updates than the receptionist mentioned that just the infotainment system. Andy...

    New update seems to have improved Emergency Braking

    I have owned my ZSEV Mk1 since September 2020 and still love the drive. I took it to my Service Dealer - Chorley Motors MG in Burnley last week for its second service and as always, they did a superb job. On collecting the car, I asked if there where any updates and they said - "yes they had...

    OBD Automatic Window & Sunroof Closer

    According to the owners manual, the car does have an "Anti-Trap" Device installed but this is not clear if it only works on the drivers door as this is the only window which can be closed or opened using a one touch operation.

    Steering gone on my 2021 ZS EV

    My 2020 ZS EV developed "Clicking from the steering column" at just 1,000 miles from new which gradually got worse, I mentioned this to my Servicing Dealer (Chorley Motors in Burnley) who did not hesitate to change the whole steering column. Sounds like this could possibly be a known fault to...

    OBD Automatic Window & Sunroof Closer

    It's summer again and often I like to use the open sunroof on my 2020 ZS EV. Unlike some cars where you can simply hold down the lock button on the remote to close all windows when exiting, the Mk 1 ZS EV doesn't have this facility. Has anyone located and tried any third part OBD plug-in Auto...

    Heater Output Reduced in Economy Running Mode

    Thank you all for confirming this and I totally understand what you are saying about the Economy Mode reducing the cabin heater output. I have only used Economy setting during summer months so hadn’t noticed the effect it had on the cabin heater before, but thanks again for the clarification, at...

    Heater Output Reduced in Economy Running Mode

    Compliments of the season. I have owned my ZSEV since September 2020, but due to lock-downs etc. I have only achieved around 2500 miles so far, so mainly used for running around locally. A couple of weeks back, the weather turned very cold and outside temperature was just over freezing at 2...
