    2nd Service

    I’m being quoted £310 by Glyn Hopkins in Cambridge, which I why I’m asking. Also waiting to hear from Cleevely before deciding.

    2nd Service

    Hi everyone. The second service on my standard range MG5 is due and I wondered if anyone can say what sort of price dealers are quoting ?

    MG5 Charging Problem

    Yes. I’ve had this a few times. Usually fixed by going in the shop and buying something and using PIN and charge has worked👍

    Thanks everyone. Think I’ll ask the dealer a few questions before proceeding.

    The car has just reached 7000 miles - not that the dealer has asked

    Service Questions

    Morning everyone. I have my MG5 booked for its first service next week and just received an email to confirm the appointment on line. I have two queries, the first is what is the usual cost people are seeing as I’m being quoted £158, if that’s about average then that’s fine but it seemed a bit...

    Clonk from transmission starting from rest, MG5

    I might be tempted to have an independent engineers report done, you mention excessive play on the inboard joints rather than any internal play from the differential which is of some comfort, but a proper report may prod your dealer into action. I have no idea of the cost for this these days the...

    Battery Longevity

    This looks to me like the usual bunkum from the anti EV brigade. While I have no worries about the longevity of my MG5’s battery, I suspect that by the time it does start to degrade it will be possible to just replace any faulty modules as required. As already mentioned, someone like Cleevely...

    2022 MG5

    I don’t mind the look and shape of the current one, but I would love to have the upgraded interior with the larger infotainment screen and the app. Oh and of course the larger battery. I really like my SR but the long range was released about a month after I got it and I’m a bit envious of the...

    ABRP, ODB2 and MG5

    Good Morning. Well I have tried to set up ABRP this morning with the same results as you, it fails on the car connection status. I’m using an iPhone along with the LELink^2 dongle which like yours, is one of the registered dongles. So still no connection for the MG5😢 That’s the trouble with...

    Real world range on the standard range MG5

    Your 6 deg figure is interesting as I always assumed when talking about winter driving, we were talking 1or 2 deg until today. My wife usually just uses the car on local trips and rarely notices the need to charge let alone the consumption, but today I went out on a reasonable long journey and...

    Thoughts after a couple of weeks (spoiler: she's a keeper)

    You drive your MG5 exactly as I do and with the same range expectations. I too use the 2 miles to every % yardstick and it hasn't failed me yet. I always use Eco mode with the Kerrs set on 3 and regardless of any displayed range after charging, after a short amount of driving the range display...

    MG5 owners only. Post on here what you think of the car.

    I’m pretty happy with mine and both myself and the wife enjoy driving it. However, I agree with you that the infotainment system is pretty awful with the maps being way out of date, the headlights are terrible with a strange coloured fringing. I have upgraded the bulbs but not prepared to go...

    Footy trip From Southampton to Newcastle

    I have to say I’ve never really tried to make any so-called savings stack up because I changed to an EV for environmental reasons rather than any short term monetary gains. However, that being said I agree that free VED will definitely be short lived as the government can’t afford to loose the...

    OK Thanks.

    new tyre

    Does anyone know if after using the emergency repair fluid supplied with the MG for a puncture, is the tyre is still serviceable? I know sometime ago KwikFit recommended that once you had used the fluid the tyre was rendered U/S
