Yeah, I've had to be rescued by the AA because of a flat 12v battery! That was 18 months ago. I invested in a booster pack but of course I've had no issues since! We shouldn't have to worry about a 12v battery in a £30 k car!!

My 22 reg came with just the granny cable. My dealer gave me a type 2 cable free of charge!

Thanks guys, as you probably guessed I'm new to this situation so still learning! It looks like the booster packs vary in amp output. What do you suggest as a minimum requirement for a EV?

Can you recommend a good 12v booster pack?

I did think that, when we 1st had the car, we could set an 80% charge! I didn't realise that MG disabled it!

That's all very helpful, thanks.

This is the most common advice we have found! What is the recommended EV charge limit? Most of the time you should only charge an EV to 80% because charging rates slow down dramatically past the 80% mark. And two, the long-term health of your vehicle's battery pack is improved when kept below...

But no one has ever explained what we should be doing! Our dealer didn't tell us! MG main dealer said the instructions were in the app! The app says do it at regular intervals but doesn't say how or what the intervals are! How often should we charge to 100%? Most of the advice says only charge...

ismart app and sync charger app, both showing the same 1.56 kw. Its stopped charging now (9.30), about 3.5 hrs after reaching 100% so hopefully all good now!

So leave it going then? This is a mk2 2022 standard range zs!

App still says 'charging' but still drawing 1.56kw!

Only rapid charge about once a month, all rest on sync home charger.

Been at 100% for couple of hours now, but still drawing 1.56kw!

How long do you leave the charge going after 100%?

I bought the car from Wiltshire & sons of Farnham, they have been absolutely brilliant so far! They have offered to pick my car up, from home, leave me a car and deliver my car to Richmonds in Guildford!

1st registered 28th June 22 so should be ok!!

Booked into my nearest main dealer, Richmonds of Guildford, for a diagnostic check! 1st available appointment, any guesses?? 1st JUNE !!!!!!

Had to use the spare key blade to open the door, easy when you know how! Why were we not shown that by MG? Not completely dead but very very low, car started ok with a jump pack. Told to leave it running for an hour and then plug the car into the home charger for an hour and then drive it for...

All ok now, thanks guys. AA called as car is less than a year old. They were here within 45 mins so great service! Dead 12v battery as you thought. It's a Mk2 but the App won't work if the 12v battery is dead or very low! The App stopped working last week but after a trip out it started working...
