Thanks for the heads up. I stopped at a shell garage just off the M25 st Alban's and noticed a sign warning max 30 minutes stay. Just needed the loo but there was a long queue for the chargers. I wonder how many people get fined. Seems a daft rule if you are spending money.

Hi, You can use a solution called OVMS. It will give you information on charging, range etc but won't let you do anything like remotely start the heating. https://www.openvehicles.com/#

Hi everyone, Our 22 SR with 8k miles is now showing 94.45 % SOH. It has only been AC charged, frequently to 100% and not left at a low or high SOC. Now the weather is warmer I was expecting the GOM estimate to increase, however the best is 193 miles heater off and trip reset. I have never...

Hi everyone, Driving home this afternoon, nearly there when a few error messages popped up about hill descent control etc. Thought it strange, pulled up at the house and realised the brakes were really poor, wooden brake pedal and despite pushing really hard almost no stopping power. Pulled...

Hi everyone, The ismart app on one of our two MG ZS just won't connect. I initially thought that's just how it is sometimes as the other car went through a period of not connecting. However, thinking about it that wouldn't stay like that for very long and almost always it would work once the...

We have 2 ZS EV. My one is slightly newer and initially would rarely connect. The other one was rock solid since we got it 9 months ago, right up until very recently when it rarely connects. Strangely enough my one is now working fine. They are parked right next to each other.

Thanks everyone, Got a stop lock pro, like going back to the 80's but if it helps put someone off it's worth it. Agreed, if someone really wants the car they will find a way to take it. Having seen how easily and quickly they drove off with the car opposite I'd rather try to avoid the hassle...

Hi all, Any recommendations for a good steering wheel lock please? Guy opposite had his car stolen, keyless by the look of it. Already keep our keys in a tin but looking for some extra protection. Thanks in advance.

Also check out James and Kate channel, good explanation of a couple of well used MG5 and how they are holding up, in short very well.

Hi, I've noticed with my SR version strange charging behaviour as mentioned. I've yet to see it balance charge like the LR version does. It also often finishes a full charge then drops to 1.8kw on the charger app and stays there until the charge slot is complete and the charger turns off...

Hi, I tried that cable and it just didn't work. The vendor did give me a refund.

Hi, I have been looking for an official one since a third-party one I bought didn't work. Looked again just now and found this, wondering if official or not. Quite pricey. https://www.glynhopkinpartsonline.co.uk/products/mg-ev-vehicle-to-load-v2l-discharge-cable

Hi everyone, Noticed a different charging behaviour in this much colder weather, happened twice this week, both times it was -6 which is much lower than anything before. This is on a facelift ZS standard range. It's on a syncev 7kw AC charger set to run between 21.30 and 02.30 go faster...

Hi, I test drove a 22 plate as looking for another for my wife. That had the station graphics. It also started playing the radio when you powered the car up which mine doesn't do, you have to swipe left and select radio each time. My guess is it's the version of infotainment. Miles mentioned a...

Hi all, Think I've found how to do it with the latest version of the app. Untested as still have the one car. From the main screen press the top section where the car name is. That takes you to vehicle management. Either press the + symbol or swipe left to start adding the extra car. You...

Hi, My car charged fine last night. I'm thinking it's likely one of a few new features MG are introducing, but they depend on the car itself having a newer level of software to work properly. I have reported the issue via email to the developer. My car is in for some work beginning of...

Thanks for the replies, good news it's possible.

Hi, few posts about this now. I think bug in the app.

Hi, I'm sure it's a bug in the app.

Hi, I have just updated and noticed the same overheating messages. They weren't there just before the update so it must be a bug in the app. Anyone know what the smart peripherals section is for? Won't allow you to add a new device and just shows current car. Maybe plans for more than one car?
