    A new Satnav EV Update was planned for August 2023 any news about it?

    My Trophys Sat Nav stopped working after first month but rarely need it. On first 12 month service the Dealership downloaded new software and satav now working brilliantly, I'm unable to give a version as my days of tinkering with cars are over.

    Charging MG4 Trophy LR, how much do you get at home in 4 hrs?

    I've only used sunshine to charge my Trophy LR since I got it a year ago, I'm retired so not huge journeys, a few 120 mile round trips over Christmas etc. Usual use about thirty miles per day. Today (6th January 2024) my solar panels and house battery charger the car up from 39 to 62%. If we get...

    Creak in rear/boot

    I'm old so thought the boot creaking was an echo! Actually I thought it was because I nearly always travel with the back seat down, because of conveying family dogs around. Got a long trip over Christmas so will take some insulating tape along and see if wrapping the lock bar helps. Cheers

    Route planning coming to MG4?

    Sadly my Sat Nav only worked for six weeks, then Dealership said it needed update and still waiting months later. Using an old plug in Sat Nav but at least that works apart from new.places.

    MG4 Lack of software Updates thread

    Sat Nav stopped working months ago despite several stays at Dealership, according to them software is problem. Agree we need a giant red button we can hit to stop the LKA as it comes back on every time I get back into the car. The LKA in my previous car had a few Emergency stops, usually because...

    Hi, I drove a Trophy MG4 and regularly charge it to 100% and leave for a couple up to five days and have had no problems. Have done this for over seven months.

    QR Code Problems & Car Time

    Had my car for around seven months and done a good few thousand miles. The Dealer and I failed to get the app working and I just enjoy driving the car ignoring its many software foibles.

    GUTTED!

    I did thirty years of being a voluntary driver and the absolute best car for transporting five large adults was the Citroen BX. The only car out of about seventh volunteers that would easily allow a client with a full leg plaster on to easil y get in and out. The entire chassis could be dropped...

    Charging battery to full on regular basis or allow it to go down to 5 percent before topping up

    I've got the Trophy and everyone seems to be an expert, but my philosophy is if I get home after doing a few short runs and there's 85% showing, I always stick it on charge via my Zappi2 and get it back up to 100%. I've been doing this for six months and the BMS seems to do its balancing act...

    Left Shortcut Button - Disable climate control shortcut message

    I'm starting to get a feeling that I should employ a Unionised Gremlin / Secretary to remember all the buttons functions. This Trophy owner loves technology but loves driving even more. It's only been six months but I'm still struggling on just getting the fan to work without the dehumidifier...

    iSmart

    Had my MG4 for nearly SIX MONTHS! And the dealership nor I can even get my phone (nor several phones owned by the Dealership Employees) to bind with my car. Not too worried, just don't have to answer any calls. I used to be a Marine Engineer and out of 300 alarms 280 were permanently not working...

    QR Code Problems & Car Time

    Got my Trophy and of Nov 2022, and Dealer failed to bind my phone, car went in for full software update, hope still no joy, whilst I nearly managed it myself a few months ago it didn't connect and now it's impossible as it doesn't accept my country code +44 and neither of the QR boxes are on the...

    Charging battery to full on regular basis or allow it to go down to 5 percent before topping up

    I don't go on many long journeys and some weeks only use 15% of the batteries charge, if there's sunshine I plug charger into my Trophy and charge it till the tick appears on the MyEnergi app screen. Occasionally it will balance the batteries for about half an hour using very little power. I...

    Folding Mirrors - am I being thick?

    Luckily I've bought the Trophy specifically to reverse into my garage, pressing the button down at the point my garage door frame would rip the mirrors off and then pressing the button down again after moving back about a foot. For some weird reason I can never centre the darned car and always...

    Software fixes - Current status ?

    I had my cruise control set to 40 as I was just leaving a 40mph area and just as I was about to use my thumb to click it up to 55 my car did an emergency stop. Now don't get me wrong I've had my share of MG weirdness but I think that the reason my car nearly stopped was because the car going...

    Charging power MG4

    Hi I've got a Zappi2 and a Trophy MG4. I'm retired so mostly do short (under 50 mile) journeys and am also trying to only charge the car from my 7 kw panels. I've set the Zappi2 to the eco+ setting but notice via my British Gas monitor that the car always uses mains electricity to charge the car...

    Should a new MG4 Trophy come with the Type 2, Granny and V2L cables ?

    I liked the sentence "is there anything else I need to know". I've been you tubing hundreds of tutorial videos as most Dealers are learning on the job, Google a guy Burl (something) as he has a dozen or more very informative videos, which means you're learning all the time with an EV. Well worth...

    MG4 Lane keep assist

    I got my Trophy in December and REALLY had to turn it (Lka) off. Just to warn everyone my MG4 does exactly the same thing as my old Ioniq, that is, when a vehicle of any size slowly takes a slip road to the left the vehicle you're in decides to automatically brake very harshly. Has happened...
