Same here with mine, direct to the battery it is then 👍.

A lot of cars store the 12 volt battery in the boot these days, so for a while now manufacturers have been installing jump positions under the bonnet for convenience. Some have a LIVE &. NEGATIVE connection, some a negative to the bodyshell connection only. It is recommended that the ground to...

This looks like the OEM part number, but double check with the dealer and its price. I would imagine over £30.00 myself. OEM filters are about £28.00 on line and with very quick check, I found an after market filter for about £24.00. So not a great difference in the price really. Bit more...

I remember taking in a VW Polo into a local dealer. The previous owner had paid in full, for a transferable 3 year service plan. Therefore the service we where about to have was FOC to ourselves. I opted to wait for the car and had just sat down with a coffee and the news paper. When I was...

I am not blasé about it, but after working in the motor industry for a long time ( now retired) you get a good understanding of how the system works. I did not say I agreed or approved of it, far from it !. It has been this way for a long time and is unlikely to change anytime soon I feel. With...

Of course, they obeyed your instructions and accordingly then charged you the official MG retail price of the parts required. They do not set the price of these parts, that is done by MG ( plus some commission to the dealer ). Then they are very likely to apply some labour costs for installing...

Do not worry, there are not HRW elements, they are arial elements for the radio unit. This will save a trip to the dealer at least !.

I agree Les. I think the car is likely to be cable of discharging / handling a bit more than the recommended 2.5 Kw’s and there will be some redundancy built in for safety. MG would have factored in some “Fat” into the figures, for this very reason 🤣. But I mean, what ever is stated as the...

Take a look at this video from a fellow ZS EV Gen1 owner from down under, about running an external inverter.

Just to say, they are wheel bolts and not nuts ( used on wheel studs ) on the MG and on VW. The angle of the countersink produced in the wheel ( rim ) ARE indeed different between the MG and the VW rim. IF you do intend to use VW ( VAG ) rim(s) on a MG model - You will need to use VW wheel...

It is worth mentioning, that when choosing a strength of tint for your car, take into account that it will much darker inside of the cabin, when it has been raining or at night time. If you go full on “Gangster” tint, it will really cut down on the visibility when it is dark and raining. You can...

Here is an interesting comparison video, in which the second owner switched back from LED’s to standard fit lamps ??. Thought you may like to give it a view ??.

Very wise move !.

Proper job !.

A well written install, brilliant. Very detailed with pictures to boot !. Low wattage side light 💡 lamps ?. No requirement for a relay ?. I think it looks much better with the lamps fitted in the bumper. I think the ZS EV was screaming for the same mod to be honest.

If you live in a rural area, they may not cover that area. I rang them for a quote and they would not travel to our location, it was about a 30 miles drive for their closest installer.

Agreed !. You could be really lucky and drop on one that is in the correct colour. Winner winner, chicken diner !.

Regarding the ZS EV ( Gen1 ) the 12 volt battery is only receiving a charge from the HV pack, when the car is in the fully booted ( READY ) mode. If you leave your foot off the footbrake and press the start button, the car will give you a warning message that informs you that the battery is not...

Rear wheel's off I think !.

One little tip. Check the screws. The ones supplied with genuine MG ZS mud flaps, rust very quickly. I would suggest switching them out for stainless steel screws if so.
