    My turn with "Vehicle control system fault"...

    What happened to yours? We have the same issue now with a 71 plate ZS LR. Our local dealer is having all kinds of fun trying to get it working again. Changing the vacuum pump and switch hasn't made all the errors go away.

    How far had you driven before you arrived at the charger?

    Best and worst cost fast charging station

    Was getting 97kW yesterday in an ZS LR on an MFG 150kW charger. I haven't tried an Ionity but their reputation is not good (over promise, under deliver)

    iSmart Servers down?

    Working here currently. It was down for me a few days ago late a night.

    Impressive 97kW peak charging rate at MFG Purfleet

    ah that makes sense, current voltage != voltage being provided by the charger.

    Common problems with the new ZS EV

    I have an assortment of small frustrations. The speed limit sign recognition is woeful, it's also based on the front facing camera and not maps. For national speed limit it presumes 60mph is the limit and will blink at you for driving at 70mph on the motorway. The car reset some setting back...

    Impressive 97kW peak charging rate at MFG Purfleet

    We did a long trip yesterday in our MG ZS LR and managed to stop at the newly opened MFG Purfleet to try one of the eight 150kW chargers. We arrived around 10pm with 11% with a nice warm battery from a 50mile journey to reach it, ambient temp was 10c. When it started charging it was up at...

    Disable camera when turning

    The position of the camera would give you a great shot of their wheels, curb and not much else. I suspect the blind spot monitor light would come on in any event.

    Disable camera when turning

    When it pops up there is a cog top right where you can turn it off. I agree it's annoying.

    MG ZS EV Long Range Real World Efficiency

    We are also starting to see 3's with the slightly warmer weather (10c+). Saw 4.0m/kWh for the first time yesterday going across town. It's looking very promising for spring/summer.

    MG ZS EV Long Range Real World Efficiency

    I shared my experience of a long-trip in this thread: MG ZS LR long trip and charging speeds The efficiency has remained similar 2.9 - 3.1m/kWh but on a few warmer days we have seen it rise with is very promising. So real world 180-190 miles in winter.

    Vehicle to Load (V2L) - Any Information or First Hand Experiences?

    This is a more exciting development in V2H the potential is huge but cost will be too (initially): Wallbox Quasar 2 bidirectional V2H CCS-combo DC charger announced, turns EVs into huge Powerwall it skips the on-board inverter and taps straight into the battery (DC).

    ZS EV Trophy Vs Trophy Connect questions

    Yes you can unlock the car using the app. I don't i would want to rely on it but could be useful if you lock your keys inside. I would say it is as good as expected the battery size makes it just so much more usable. It does have some quirks but all cars do these days, hopefully they will...

    They got me to download another app😭

    Similar idea to Octopus Electric Juice which is only pay as you go with a price that varies depending on the provider rather than the fixed price on Bonnet PAYG. Electric Juice does give you an RFID card and has more partners. https://electricjuice.octopus.energy/

    Lane Keep Assist

    I have the facelift ZS EV LR and turned off Lane Keep Assist for recent journey on the M25 (clockwise before/after the crossing) for very similar reasons. In the inside lane the car kept wanting to nudge/shove me to the left which became very un-settling. I noticed on a few sections of tarmac...

    ZS EV Trophy Connect - Maintain vehicle soon - warning light

    I haven't had that but I do recall seeing in the settings the number of miles remaining until a service is due and a very tempting button you can press to reset it.

    MG iSmart lower your expectations

    Yes it would repeat itself. But you can't set specific days.

    MG iSmart lower your expectations

    Yes with the limitation of one start and one end time for a single day.

    MG ZS LR long trip and charging speeds

    Yes potentially. It would have been interesting to see if it would have kept going up, will also try turning the heater off and on to see the impact. I think someone said the heater uses 7kW.

    Unfortunately not. Nothing in the car either.
