    Where to put the key?

    I just keep mine in my pocket, that way I can't forget it and leave it in the car or worse still lock it in the car

    Any positive reviews MG ZS EV

    Have a look at the thread titled "In Praise of the ZS". I have had my ZS EV Trophy long range since last June, purchased new at rather more than you are paying no doubt. On the whole its been an excellent car.

    MG ZS missing V2L function

    Hi I used Glyn Hopkin, St Albans who, after a poor start when they failed to return my calls and emails, actually impressed with their service. I did have an undertaking from MG that they would authorise the work without charge if "the V2L function was important to me and a deciding factor when...

    Best Colour for the ZS ? Gen 1 or gen 2

    I ordered black but gave up waiting and accepted an earlier blue one. I am very happy with the colour and now think it was a better choice than my originally ordered black one!

    Wheel covers

    Yes, there is "right way" to fit the wheel covers, not that my new car came with them fitted correctly! I managed to get them off, very carefully to avoid damage and noted that there is a symbol on the back of the covers indicating where the valve should be so no reason why they shouldn't have...

    MG ZS missing V2L function

    That timescale seems very strange. My local dealer changed the necessary part and, as it was the first one they had done they asked me to leave the car with them for 2 hours. They actually did the job in less than one hour so I am puzzled why your dealer wants to have your car for two days! I've...

    Boot Weight Capacity

    It's no more than having two adults in the back seat! I wouldn't worry

    Low voltage battery discharging

    Update Car unused since Friday, charged to 67% on Saturday morning (cheap night time rate). Yesterday the app showed 13v, now fallen to 12.8v.

    Low voltage battery discharging

    Sorry for the confusion. Long trip on Friday and charged car on my Octopus Go tariff from 00.30 to 04.30 Saturday. I will need another session to get it back to 80% but pleased to see that Octopus have just reduced the off peak rate to 9p/kW now so another little step in the right direction.

    Low voltage battery discharging

    Car charged overnight Saturday after long trip on Friday and unused since. App shows 12 volt battery at 13v a few minutes ago. Hope this helps. By the way the app often shows the 12 volt battery at rather less than 13v but never as low as 12v - yet! I was a little worried about the state of the...

    MG ZS EV Trophy Connect 2023 Maxxis Bravo M3

    My Trophy LR was delivered in early June and came with Maxxis tyres. I would have preferred the Michelin's but probably only because I know them and have had good experiences with them on previous cars .

    My Ismart app sometimes does not connect to the gps

    I had this problem soon after I got my car. After trying various "solutions" I resorted to the 10mm spanner and disconnected the 12v battery for 15 minutes or so. It worked and I've not had a problem since. The only slight downside is that you lose your cumulative trip data. Good luck

    Electric Driving Efficiency over 1000 Miles

    Recently completed my first 1000 miles. Meter reset twice, once with battery disconnect to address app connection problem and once by dealer when correcting the missing V2L, neither were planned and I intend to leave meter to record long term performance. Basically averaging 4.1 miles/ kWh so...

    MG ZS missing V2L function

    Photo of my "new" EVCC fitted last Friday. Sorry but I don't have any details of the one they replaced as I didn't even know what was to be replaced and where it was!

    MG ZS missing V2L function

    I've found mine! It's not actually on the front wing but on the chassis member opposite the N/S front wing, quite low down. It is visible from above, partially hidden by a couple of black cloth wrapped cables but once I stopped looking on the inside skin of the wing I found it quite easily. I...

    MG ZS missing V2L function

    Well, just back from my local dealership and the necessary part has been fitted, about 1.5 hours in total and apparently the first one they have done so it's probably an hour's job, as advised by MG UK. My "no charge" invoice only refers to carrying out an EVHC which I understand is just an...

    MG ZS missing V2L function

    Further complaints to my local dealer have finally produced a result. The required part has been ordered and is expected at the dealer within the next couple of days. Car booked in for this Friday. According to MG the fix is supposed to take 1 hour but dealer hasn't done one before so advised me...

    MG ZS missing V2L function

    I'm drawing a complete blank with my local MG dealer, so much so that after being ignored multiple times when trying to contact them by email, telephone and webchat I've had to resort to their customer complaints team. That has finally provoked an apologetic response but no substantive answer to...

    MG ZS missing V2L function

    Looks like I'm in a similar position, car delivered in June, various dates under the bonnet suggesting manufactured in October/November '22 and 11473414 on the inverter. I have no idea if V2L works or not and have no way, that I know of, of checking It's not a facility that I currently need but...
