    Wishlist/'must haves' for next version of the ZS EV?

    A big yes for the shark fin aerial, The Gen ll SR trophy I picked up in January still had the long antenna style aerial, They make a horrendous noise on the up & over garage door when backing in, I changed it out for a stubby aerial off the ebay.

    Which make of OBD dongle did you use? I've tried two on my 2023 gen 2 MG ZS EV with no luck, I never had a problem with them on my 2020 gen 1 ZS EV. Plugging the Nexus dongle in using car scanner got me an email from SAIC on my phone saying The airbag on your vehicle has triggered an alarm. :unsure:

    Software Updates

    My 2020 Gen 1 ZS EV never got a software update in three years, I asked at the time of each annual service if there are any software updates for it & the answer was always, if it needs them it will get them. When I collected the car they said no software updates were done. When I sold the car...

    Interesting/worrying story from Scotland - ZS with no brakes.

    What really annoys me is this happens five months ago in Oct 23 & still not a sausage anywhere on the WWW with no news of an investigation from MG Motors or any independent sources for that matter, Can I take it the whole matter was a load of tosh or are these investigations time-consuming & we...

    OBD2 Bluetooth Scanner

    I got the Nexus OBD2 from Aliexpress for £8.64 delivered, I'm still having trouble seeing the parameters on my 2023 ZS EV 51kWh Trophy. It connects up with Bluetooth no problem but the blue light on the module is flashing then goes off & according to the instructions it hasn't connected to the...

    I was cleaning the car the other day & saw this bolted to the N/S/F chassis, Would this be V2L module?

    OBD2 Bluetooth Scanner

    Looks like I may need a new OBD ll? I just plugged mine into my new facelift trophy model but this facelift model isn't showing all parameters. It worked perfectly on my gen 1 MG ZS EV model. https://www.imgbly.com/ib/hmuZ5WlhA7

    Correct car (model)?

    I need to thank you as I got my wires crossed & thought the heated seats had been removed. I looked on the infotainment screen as you pointed out & they are indeed on there :rolleyes:. As you mentioned it's just sky roof that's been deleted on my Trophy 51kW ZS EV So thank you for putting that...

    Correct car (model)?

    Ah Right! Yes facelift model. Shows how much notice I took when everything was being explained to me :rolleyes:It has got the pleather seats.

    Correct car (model)?

    The 2023 51 kWh Trophy I picked up a couple of weeks ago doesn't have the sky roof & doesn't have the heated seats either, There's a blanking plate in place of the heated seat buttons.

    Interesting/worrying story from Scotland - ZS with no brakes.

    I've been searching online for any updates about this story for ages without any luck, It's annoying to say the least that there is no news about this case from the person involved, the police or MG Motors. 😒
