    Various issues with ZSEV Trophy LR - advice needed

    Q4 is condensation. My wife insists on having the temp low, the airflow low and using the car to take wet garden rubbish to the tip. She gets the same problem. You can see the condensation over the camera. I set the temp to 19 and have airflow to the screen and never have any issues. Do...

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

    This. Until proven otherwise, my hypothesis is : man drives through red light/speed camera; man panics and makes up story without thinking through consequences. I'd also believe someone setting up a story to get mg to buy a car back because depreciation/insurance is hitting hard. A number of...

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

    Sounds like total bollocks to me. Similar stories in the past have turned out to be all about covering up or making excuses for accidents or speeding/red light offences.

    Black vs Silver - scratches

    black always shows swirl marks/scratches badly. Against that, metalic silver is more difficult to get a match for if you need any bodywork doing. Not sure what the triple coat red is like for colour match. but the blue and white are probably the easiest to maintain.

    Parts availability for facelift LR?

    And the good news is that the log suppliers responsible seem to be accepting responsibility :) Which is a relief. I provided them with dashcam footage and they've given me their insurance details. Makes me glad I put that dashcam in. btw - dealer said there are 3 different part numbers for...

    Parts availability for facelift LR?

    Well, bonnet is available in the uk, £560+vat led light on backorder but quite reasonable price £600+vat - The ones on my skoda were over £1k 5 years ago (although when I think about it, they are adaptive). Front bumper was a bit of a shock - £1150+vat also on backorder. Its irritating...

    Parts availability for facelift LR?

    I'll have a look. Sort of assumed that anything on ebay would be crashed and likely the parts wanted would be broken.

    Parts availability for facelift LR?

    This is what worries me. Just wondering if the issues are only with things that they clearly need lots of, or if everything takes ages.

    Parts availability for facelift LR?

    Our ZS EV LR trophy connect had a connection with some logs that came off a delivery van this morning :( Bonnet is fubar, front bumper/grille/whatever its called is cracked, one of the led lights is cracked and the surround for the charge port is cracked. Is this going to turn into a...

    Help car not charging (either cable)

    The -ve terminal is connected to the car body. If you start to remove the +ve terminal first then it could be quite easy for you to 'short' the battery by connecting the +ve terminal to the body and hence to the -ve terminal - this isnt good for the battery and can give interesting...

    Changing radio channels using favourites rather than all?

    Changing radio channels using favourites rather than all?

    I'm sure I must be missing something obvious but this is irritating me. when I change radio channel with the buttons on the steering wheel it moves through all the channels. I just want to move through my saved ones. R3 and R4 are next to each other so not an issue, but the world service and...

    MG ZS EV - I cannot use CCS On Public Chargers

    We've had problems charging at BP Pulse - although talking to other people I think its a BP problem rather than an MG issue. Just head for instavolt chargers now - they almost always just work.

    Granny charger damaged.

    Basically replaced the standard 3 pin plug with these.: https://www.screwfix.com/p/mk-16a-2p-e-surface-outlet-200-250v/281jr https://www.screwfix.com/p/mk-16a-2p-e-site-service-plug-200-250v/882jr Better environmental protection that the standard weatherproof socket boxes. Edit - the other...

    Granny charger damaged.

    Correct - I only fitted it to stop it throwing a fault error. The commando plug is higher rated than 3pin and is on its own circuit and rcbo. The risks with the 3pin and mainly poor quality sockets giving a poor connection or he plug not being fully inserted giving a poor connection. An ip...
