What some main dealers charge (or try to charge) for this work is just greedy.

The discs don’t look that bad (although from pics it’s hard to see). Is this the same brake change that started this thread 12 months ago?

All cruise control systems that I have used (ICE included) have a feature that senses the cornering forces and slows the car if these become too great. Some are more sensitive than others and this can spoil the drive on say a fast relatively slight bend. Some systems won’t slow until there is...

You need to check the settings and see if you have the 80% charging limit setting enabled.

Can you drive with your left foot on the brake while applying power with your right foot for short periods and in doing so ‘burnish’ the brake discs? For example on my Kia Soul I can do this from time to time and it keeps the discs nice and fresh. Tesla actually have a brake burnish service...

Bizarre.

The onboard charger limits AC charging to 11kw no matter what the charge point provides. It’s rarely possible to get the full DC charge rate unless all conditions are met. It doesn’t sound like your car is performing any different to the way it should. When you get to around 80% DC charging will...

Your overnight price is dropping 25% to 7.5p / kWh (incl VAT). Your day price is dropping to 39.5 p / kWh (incl VAT) – a 7% price cut on average. Going in the right direction for a change!

What max charge rate have you been achieving prior to this and when did it reduce? Have you ever achieved 50kw? Have you tried different rapid chargers?

Kicking the seat back was my favourite.

Your car is limited on AC chargers by the cars onboard charger - which I believe is 7kwhr on your car - others can confirm. This means no matter what the charger is capable of (in your case 22kwh) you’ll get a maximum of what the on board charger is rated at. Rapid DC charging will provide...

Did you ask your dealer why? The rapid charger has nothing to do with controlling the rate, this is done by the cars BMS. Different cars has different set ups, but most do start to reduce the rate considerably at around 80%. Battery packs are designed to be charged to 100% (LFP packs need to...

Both these items are known about on the ZS. A search of the forum will bring up lots of details.

The issue that I have is how customers are treated. Plus the lack of technical knowledge and communication within dealerships. For example, in this instance, with a little bit of research it can be seen that there have been issues with UJ’s failing on some ZS’s. If MG had a good service...

I doubt very much MG are at all concerned. Just look at other threads how they have treated customers. It’s sell sell sell and don’t worry about issues.

Just read it. I wish I had known when I had my car. I still enjoyed ownership though.

I came to the conclusion that my rattle was caused by excessive flexing of the roof panel. I know that it sounds extreme but if you hold your hand on the roof when driving you can feel it flex quite a lot. When going over undulating road this could be rattling the sunroof. It’s a very large roof...

Should you try to charge to 100% with an LFP on a DC charger?

Nothing like being positive!

There are two bolts at the top of the steering column - these may be loose. It needs checking obviously. If you grab the wheel and try to move it back and forward you’ll see if it moves.
