    MG ZS EV refuses to charge ….

    Well let’s do the math. 74p per day x 5 days a working week, do less mileage at weekends, 47 weeks a year. That is £174.31 a year, I’ll take a cheque if you don’t have the cash on you and you don’t mind giving it away :) Calling someone a tight wad in this economic climate is low and frankly...

    MG ZS EV refuses to charge ….

    I am on the Octopus Go Faster tariff and not receiving any subsidised rates, who are you with that they are subsidising energy costs? There is nothing concessionaire about the Go Faster tariff, it is a way for the grid to charge for excess energy production (wind / nuke) which if not sold would...

    MG ZS EV refuses to charge ….

    Good point but I have not implemented that. When I am paying for the electric I do not want start in +/- 20 mins. If the National grid want to pay for my charge quite happy for them to choose when to charge as long as it is all done during cheap rate :)

    Update on this. Having now lived with car for a month and done 2 long range drives, as many as I have done in the last 2 years!, I can say I am bloody impressed by the MG ZS! I love the MG Pilot and use it all the time. I love telling the car to cool down 10 mins before we leave home. Having...

    V2L

    I am about to get a v2L cable to commando to plug into my whole house battery inverter. I can load the cars 70kWh battery at 7kWh during cheap rate energy. Then during the day if it looks like I may not have enough battery to get around to cheap rate again or if there is more than a 24 hour...

    Yes I found the source of these issues and their remedy in these forums!! Not in the manual and not through the dealer. Both of which should be Authorative. I am one of plagued people who do read manuals :-) but did me no good on these occasions except for provide me with the confidence to...

    It is a maturity issue, it will get better as SAIC move MG up the value chain but will result in an increase prices.

    So looks like progress, thanks to everyone here. To get SatNav to work disable ‘dead reckoning’ in options Then reboot entertainment system. If Cruise Control does not work, pull over, open and shut each of the 5 doors to ensure they are all properly closed. I am absolutely certain these are...

    Before I had a fractured vertebrae it was not an issue. But since then only purchase cars that have cruise for long journeys :-)

    I must admit it was not something I checked for, or thought of checking. Never occurred to me that it would allow you to drive with doors open but disable cruise control. Quirky ….. I’ll test that and see if I can repeat the issue. I hate inconsistent errors ….. Thanks!

    I am pretty sure it was not an open door issue, as when we stopped at the dealership we removed luggage and items from the car, opening and shutting all 5 doors, the problem was still evident. The dealership was condescending, convinced it was a user issue, until they couldn’t get it working...

    It was all good… Never been able to get the built in satnav working. Set it to go home, press Go and it just stays locked on that location. Try again several miles, give a different location, calculates route, Press Go and it moves to the same location as it was for the first time you set it...

    I don’t think so tried it repeatedly for a few hours. Even the dealership could not get it going. After a 120 miles we stopped and did our first rapid charge up to 80% then the Cruise started working again.

    Thanks, it looks like an intermittent fault. I’ll raise an issue with MG UK Ltd Monday. I do need the cruise as it saves me a lot of pain in my lower back, so every car I have purchased since 1993 has had a working cruise control. Hopefully they can diagnose the issue and rectify, the...

    I am pretty good at RTFM so was able to follow the directions. The dealership confirmed a fault and it will require garage time. As mentioned above after a stop and 25kWh charge and the Cruise would enable you to move it from ready to active. So an intermittent fault :-(
