I have a service plan, but booked my service on their online portal myself. There was the opportunity to detail any issues with the car that you needed them to attend to. Personally, I wouldn’t wait for them to get in contact. You could easily slip through the net.

Sorry, I don’t know how to do that! It was in the ‘accessories’ section - someone was asking whether a shark fin from another type of MG would fit. Looking at the one I bought (from the ’my orders’ list), it says it’s not compatible with the ZS EV - very strange. It was listed as a ‘super shark...

It’s really easy and cheap to replace the aerial with a shark fin one. I think I paid less than £8 on Aliexpress, and fitted it in 10 minutes.

My car changes the time automatically, although not immediately. I set it to do so when I first bought it (November 22), and haven’t had to alter it since. There is a setting on the car that performs this function automatically. When my car arrived, it was on Chinese time (I presume), but...

I am sure that in a podcast some time ago, Miles Roberts said that MG technicians needed to identify specific modules individually to update them? There were 5 mentioned, which I listed on the form when I had my ZS serviced. I have no idea whether they were all done as requested - the V2L works...

@frb123 It’s the ‘home’ button

It was from aliexpress - sorry, I don’t remember the company name. It was marketed as ‘plug and play’ and the connections were very simple. The very time consuming part of the installation was running the wiring through.

I can confirm that it does open the boot - I had a powered tailgate installed.

I have been super super careful with my charge flap after hearing what others have been quoted for replacement. However, it doesn’t strike me as being ‘fit for purpose’, so maybe worth trying to claim on the warranty?

@dangerfieldm - I bought some cycling gloves from M&S, which have touchscreen pads on some of the fingers. They are perfect, thin enough to be comfortable for driving, and do help with keeping off the chill from the steering wheel in winter. However, I would also have paid extra for a heated...

I have silver too - I do wash it every three or four weeks, weather dependent, but it never looks too bad anyway. Team silver 👍🏻

@ched I am pretty sure the name of the 9p per kWh tariff is just ‘Octopus Go’, rather than ‘Intelligent Octopus’ - didn’t want @scottmjones to be confused! I am on Octopus Go, but I only get 4 hours (00.30 - 04.30). Maybe it varies in different areas? Anyway, 4 hours is enough for me to...

The entertainment software has never been updated in my car ☹️

You aren’t missing anything - those things are truly irritating!

This is good advice - I had my car serviced in November, and when I called the AA some weeks later, my car wasn’t on their system. Unfortunately, it’s not possible to talk to anyone at the garage, one can only leave a message. A further wait, and it still wasn’t done. I drove to the...

I think he says at #5 that he can set the battery charging to 80%, and concludes it is a LR.

@Mihir - this is what I have in my 2022 SR Trophy

@mitesh - if that is the pre-facelift car, then unfortunately it’s not compatible with the iSMART app.

@BeardedZs - I can answer one solitary question. The car, once started, does not need the key to be present!

I have had no issues with the new app either. It’s so useful, and hopefully will be even better in the future.
