    MG4 Trophy Passenger Door Stopped working

    Update: As I hadn't heard anything I phoned the parts department to see if the handle was now in stock as it was on back order. Good news. It's now in stock. Bad news. It needs painting and the painter is away for 2 weeks and the service department will call me to book the car in when it's done.

    R46 upgrade

    You might get the answer if you post your question on the PHEV forum as that's where all the appropriate experts hide 😁 https://www.mgevs.com/forums/mg-hs-ehs-plug-in-hybrid-forum.27/

    R46 upgrade

    Which MG4 have you got as it varies between the SE and SR/Trophy versions and your profile shows you driving a HS PHEV.

    Car alarm going off

    I agree but it's probably an age thing together with no Sunday trading, half-time closing on Wednesdays and pubs shutting in the afternoons. Most of the worlds problems wouldn't exist if there was no anti-social media or, controversially, no religion.

    MG 4/Mulan after crash. Drive with deployed airbags. Crash reset. Cable and Software.

    All in it's going to cost you about €16.1k (£14k) plus a lot of enjoyable? man hours.

    How to lock the MG4 towbar

    You might have to ask them again and get them to watch while you have a go.

    Balancing an LR Trophy

    Did you get 280+ miles from your eNiro or did the range drop rapidly once you started driving it with heaters on etc? The MG will base the estimated range on how the car performed previously so probably giving a more realistic GOM range. Your eNiro will be resetting all the usage data and...

    Power steering and gear gear selection failure

    Think of your car as a computer on four wheels. Every now and again a bit of the software is either slow to load up or does load but in the wrong order which confuses the rest and and they throw up various warnings. As with a laptop or PC the cure is to turn it off and on again. Or in the car's...

    MG4 first service charging issues

    Yes. You will need to leave it connected after it reaches 100% for it to perform the balance charge which might take anything from 20 minutes to an hour. While it does this it will only be drawing a few watts.

    MG4 first service charging issues

    Reading between the lines I think you are charging your car on fast DC chargers and not at home on an AC charger. When was the last time you charged your car on a slow AC charger and let it do a balance charge?

    How much range actually left at zero ?

    There is a margin but at reduced power/speed. Bjorn Nyland did a video.

    You CAN road trip an SE SR

    @Rolfe Just to give your planning even more charging options, it appears Tesla have opened most of their superchargers to non-Teslas. Either that or its a glitch in the Tesla app.

    USB disk identification failure

    How old is the USB cable? Perhaps the insulation had a defect where it flexed and two or more wires were shorting making the car think it was a USB drive.

    Does high regen turn the brake light on?

    At night you can see the reflection of your brake lights in your rear view mirrors especially if there is a refelective road sign behind you.

    Close to zero?

    As @Rolfe said it's a red square with the Tesla logo from Tesla, Inc.

    App Binding

    If you have previously been able to use the iSmart app then you don't need to re-bind to the car just use your original log-in details. 9 times out of 10 it's MG's servers that are causing the problem you just need to be patient. Also looking at the screenshot it looks like you have the old...

    MG4 long range suddenly throwing multiple errors

    Have you driven it? You need to drive it to clear those errors.

    Do you know which Bosch battery they fitted? Might be useful for the rest of us if we need to replace ours.

    Interesting scratches inside the rear spoiler

    I wondered if it was condensation too. Try heating the area gently with a hair dryer to see if they go away. There seems to be some dark scratches above and to the right of the white marks and a lot of hairline horizontal scratches too. Have you taken it through a car wash?
