    Goodbye or See you Later

    That is the good thing with second hand cars these days, without the long list of extras most are the same these days so a good deal can be had! I do miss going through all the trims and selecting the car I want then getting the prices etc, then the massive wait, then getting a nice shiny new...

    Goodbye or See you Later

    Well it took two months, but I am back in employment. The construction industry is horrible at the moment. I'm down a bit on money but we used some of our savings to buy a 2nd hand Hyundai Kona EV. Its similar in most ways to the MG 5 better in some worse in others but still a nice car to...

    Goodbye or See you Later

    I'm surprised how much I am liking them, I was very disappointed with the original shape 5 to start with but had a grudging respect/like for it after a year. Then I was swapped into a FL 5 and the respect/like went into full on love for the car. I also had a 3 week loaner of an HS while the...

    Goodbye or See you Later

    Unfortunately, I was laid off yesterday and will have to return my facelift next Wednesday so I will probably be around a lot less. Depending on what job I find I may well buy my own 5 or ZS as since changing to the facelift I was really quite enjoying the car and then you'll see me again. I'm...

    The Ultimate MG5 "Real World" Energy Consumption Thread

    Are you guys driving with the heating off? I set the cruise control to 65mph and got 2.8 m/kwh. M11 from Stansted to Cambridge North so a bit uphill on one way. I had the Missus and my son in the car so was very much behaving myself. It was wet and dark but I can't see wipers and LED lights...

    The Ultimate MG5 "Real World" Energy Consumption Thread

    I got 2.3 mi/kWh on Saturday when I checked. I had the wife the toddler and two different buggies in the car plus the heaters going. My GOM is 160 miles on 100%.

    Tesla Supercharger Issue MG5 LR

    I used to get 75kW on the screen for my old MG5 LR. I may have got higher but I rarely sit and watch the charger! Someone did show me a photo ,on here, of their PFL drawing 100kW during a charge.

    MG5 Dummy Handler!

    That's a good feature, in my old Seat Leon I had the key in my bag coming off of the train, chucked my coat and bag on the back seat, shut the door and it immediately locked. Even though it was a keyless entry I couldn't unlock it. Seat were bugger all use on the phone so I had to call my wife...

    Android Auto not picking up my voice - Facelift 5.

    The action button on the steering wheel or shouting OK Google, both of which worked fine until last week. Update: My car has been with Glyn Hopkins in Chelmsford for 9 days so far. Upside is they gave me a HS as a courtesy car. Its quite nice, it has dual climate control, a massive...

    Android Auto not picking up my voice - Facelift 5.

    That's what I thought, but something definitely hears me say OK google and brings up the speech recognitions pop up. I'm certain that this is an android problem as the forums seem to have so many complaints of this. I tried resetting the cache and even the storage, so a soft reset to...

    Android Auto not picking up my voice - Facelift 5.

    Sweet! Thanks very much for the tip! Latest update. I tried using voice control again last night. I definitely had a signal but no recognition of it hearing me on the screen, then it shut off. I tried OK Google to see if my phone could hear me and the car blipped and the speech recognition...

    Android Auto not picking up my voice - Facelift 5.

    I had some occasional connection issues with my old PFL and SEAT Leon but not regularly. Trouble is in the FL I think turning the car off and on again is the only way to reboot the entertainment.

    Android Auto not picking up my voice - Facelift 5.

    Pretty good 5g around work and 4g at home, definitely something to check the next time it doesn't work. I don't use the voice control that much any more, now I get home before the wife, not much point texting to say I'm on my way!

    Android Auto not picking up my voice - Facelift 5.

    Ahh, my Missus mentioned that it had been updated recently. I'll see if it works tonight and check a few android forums.

    Android Auto not picking up my voice - Facelift 5.

    I've been swapped into a facelift 5 as my company car for the last 3 weeks and I love it. However, I think the microphone may be busted as Andriod Auto doesn't pick up my voice. I'm using the same phone that worked well with my old PFL5, everything else on AA works well, does anyone have any...

    Silly Question, you haven't knocked the light angle adjuster dial have you? I thought the light range was rubbish when I first got it then realised that the lights weren't self leveling and I had or the dealer had the lights set for a heavy load and at the wrong angle. Even when correct they...

    MG5 mark 1 charging

    Have to admit, I had several tabs open and popped this in the wrong thread. Apologies. Bad Press Ramping up I meant to add it to this one.

    MG5 mark 1 charging

    The newspapers blaming EVs are behind paywalls, even if the EV didn't start it if they will provide a massive load to the fire. Also reading between the liners, if they weren't blaming EV's they would have even mentioned there was an EV nearby!
