    power point in boot?

    I've bought a double 12v point off aliexpress with the intention to do exactly this (aliexpress.com/item/32915762340.html). It's sitting on my desk waiting for a day when I can have a go - and will likely do so for some time yet! I did start a thread on this before I made the purchase and I...

    ELECTRIC CAR INSURANCE HUGE INCREASES BY 72%

    Market forces dictate that if someone is charging too much someone else will see the opportunity to charge less - it's just a matter of finding them. As BEV's are still quite new and disruptive this carries a higher risk and/or cost to the insurer due to it not being the same as before - they...

    Error messages vanish too quickly

    In relation to the infotainment screen there is a dark mode. IMHO this looks a lot better anyway, as it blends in with the dash more. On the home screen swipe left- one of the buttons is settings and that is where you can adjust the screen.

    So do you like your MG ZS EV?

    Part of the reason I bought the base model car was this - I actually didn't want a mobile greenhouse with plastic seats - not in Portugal where it's 40C today! I have added a back seat organiser from Ali-express (£10 for 2) to make up for the lack of that on the base model. The EU model comes...

    So do you like your MG ZS EV?

    I'm not a car nut. Our main reason for getting the ZS over the MG5 was that it's cheaper in Portugal and we, foolishly, thought it would come sooner. :ROFLMAO: We wanted an electric car and this was the only real option that suited us at the time. It's a bigger car than I've been accustomed to...

    MG ZS EV 2023 Issues with reading speed limit road signs in KM/H (kilometers/h) Units

    The Republic of Ireland uses KM also and drives on the left (but I've just realised Malta's maximum speed doesn't go up to 100... maybe they do a 65??) - so folks in Ireland - can your car see 100 signs!? I'm stepping out of this one now - I don't use the feature anyway and check the speed...

    MG ZS EV 2023 Issues with reading speed limit road signs in KM/H (kilometers/h) Units

    So I went past a few 100 signs and they all seemed to be picked up by the system, as did the 120 signs - so maybe it's not the car at fault, though, obviously, the traffic drives on the right, not the left, in mainland Europe - so maybe the software is different in RH drive cars. Is there any...

    MG ZS EV 2023 Issues with reading speed limit road signs in KM/H (kilometers/h) Units

    Intriguing! I'm going out later - I'm pretty certain it picks out 100 signs here - but they are not that common - let's see if I pass one. 65 - never seen one here, so won't be able to help with that. To be fair, I think the speed limit reader is not really useful. For instance, if it sees a...

    MG ZS EV 2023 Issues with reading speed limit road signs in KM/H (kilometers/h) Units

    Is your car set to display in KM? Mine works with KM in Portugal (not that it's worth much because Portugal doesn't always use speed limit signs - you're just expected to know that when you enter an urban area the limit is 50 and when you leave it's 90... there is no sign- so the car has no...

    ZS EV 2022 Gen 2 Headlamp bulbs

    Just resurrecting this thread. For bulb types the handbook just says - "LED" for everything except the reversing lights and indicators (which are W16W 16W and WY16W 16W respectively) and internal etc. So my questions: Is it the same bulb for each LED? Is it one bulb to rule them all or is it...

    Android Ismart app - pop up notifications?

    I expect I did, but when I click it it comes up with the option to "agree", so I'm not sure if I did or didn't - so, just in case, I clicked it again.... and again! Let's see if anything happens on the next notification. Thanks for your perseverance. It's not a biggie and it's definitely a first...

    Android Ismart app - pop up notifications?

    thanks. I've finally found the notifications permissions.... And they are already all turned on! 😕 And the settings on the app are as you have them. Looks like it's a glitch then! Hey ho!

    MG ZS missing V2L function

    The specs vary between EU and UK - but if it has been quietly removed from the UK variants its really annoying to say the least. Mine works btw.....😁

    MG ZS missing V2L function

    According to the MGmotor portuguese site, the V2L function is still mentioned but it says "only long range" model.

    Android Ismart app - pop up notifications?

    I need to access the collective genius of the android app nerds here please! (Usual preamble - searched forum, not found anything, sorry if its there) And so to the background - my wife was out in the car and had a puncture (thankfully repairable given the tyres still have the little new spikey...

    Driving to Germany - beam deflectors required?

    I'm in the same boat but going the other way.... not sure how that's possible... maybe the boat can split in two or it's a really big boat....? Anyway, I have had similar uncertainty and still have no answer. It is my understanding that it's really not a big deal and many have driven on the...

    What are peoples experiences when using a granny charger?

    The other tests are: Someone else's granny charger at your house Your granny charger at someone else's house Your granny charger on someone else's car Once you've tried that you should be able to identify where the problem sits. However.... as it's intermittent.... ..... .... have fun!!

    What are peoples experiences when using a granny charger?

    I'm currently charging just with a granny cable with no issues. It's 16A - so I'm getting around 3Kw and I watched it carefully to start with. We have powerline extenders and they cause no issues. Maybe when we get a smart charger that might change. The socket is a within a few feet of the...

    MG ZS Forum Member Order Tracker

    "SE" Long range. In Europe it's called "comfort" LR and has a few different features, but its much the same. I've already pranged it though! 😣 Not badly, though - no dents - and I have a friend who does paintwork, so should get it sorted pretty quick.
