Brave man, lower I got it to was 9% at home with plenty of chargers on the way.

The fix is to clear faults through OBD so it must be software.

Say you ditch the ZS because electricity is too dear, how do you feel about domestic use? Install a domestic battery to cover your daily use and switch to Octopus Go, pay 7 times less. And buy the ZS, and charge it at the cheap off peak rate. If Octopus goes bust the only way to protect your...

If has to be the climate, not much you can do about it. I'd avoid charging during the day and aggressive driving when is hot.

To read and reset faults I use Car Scanner. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ovz.carscanner To see state of battery I use MG EP (not use with Leaf). https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.moonoi.mgep

MG5 LR SOH 100% 13181miles / 21213km over 10 months Mostly fast charges to 80-90% with up to 4 charges to 100% a month, dropped below 20% maybe 5 times, lowest was 13%.

Most of the time using the FOB to unlock the car unlocks the cable too.

It is the manufacturer and model that matters not the operator.

I have just tried it on a moderate slope, it stays still after releasing the break, auto hold kicks in even if is not on. Once back on flat releasing the foot brake starts the car slowly

MG5 starts going slowly once you release the break so there is no need for hill assist

My MG5 LR with 10k miles on clock and 8 months old shows 100% SOH, it has been almost exclusively fast charged. I think the Scottish climate helped it.

When it happened to me the AA man told me a spike in a faulty charger causes the car's battery to go offline. I must have fast charged my car at least 100 and seen the fault twice, first time car recovered itself within 10 min second time I had to call the AA. While I believe any EV must be able...

Under steering wheel halfway down, left side

Yep, there's an app for that...

I have got this Bluetooth OBDII scan tool for Android devices but cheaper models might work just as well. I use Car Scanner app on my phone with it and it does the clear error codes command. With it I can read HV battery SOH, it is 100% after 10k m and mostly fast charging but the result could...

Not in my experience, the AA guy knew exactly what to do and said this is a common problem with MG's. After that unpleasant experienced I have bought an OBD Bluetooth dongle so I can do it myself if it happens again. AA must be charging MG dealers for their calls and after one year when AA cover...

Same on m MG5 and I have noticed the 12v voltage clocked dropped from 14v to 12v

Car did not shut down properly and the 12v battery was drained by something.

I have been fast charging my MG5 for over 10,000 miles almost exclusively and this problem happened twice, first time it went away after 10 min, second it lasted over 2 hours and had to call the dealer and AA. State of health shown with the OBD dongle is 100%, I was expecting 99 or 98. I do try...

Same has happened to me, MG5, but the AA man read the faults with an OBD2 device (nothing shown) then cleared faults anyway and that fixed it, he says it is an MG problem with faulty chargers. Since then I have bought a Bluetooth OBD2 dongle to use with my phone if it happens again.
