    What tyres are you going for?

    I replaced mine with Goodyear Vector 4Seasons. Unbelievable improvement over the original. No wheel spin, and seem much quieter too

    Eco,N or S and Kers 1,2 or 3 research

    Yes, a bit like pulling off in 2nd gear in slippery conditions

    Eco,N or S and Kers 1,2 or 3 research

    In my view KERs settings don't make any difference to energy saving in an MG5, it's just a matter of personal preference. If the car slows down it charges the battery. On KERs 1 you may have to dab the brakes, but they don't use the actual pads unless you stand on them or come to a stop anyway...

    MG5 Long Range - real range ?

    My SR MG5, normally shows 213 after a full charge. In daily use I tend to get 2 miles per percent. I've never driven it to empty, but going by percentages it would cover 180 miles in winter, more in summer. I've had it a year and done 6000 miles, with some long trips.

    MG5 KERS 3 & Brake Light Operation - Safety Recall?

    I'd never used Kers 3 until I had the update done, after which I used it to check the lights coming on at night. I must admit I was expecting it to be more severe than it seems to be. It's a bit more than Kers 2 but not greatly so on my car. Whether the update impacted it I don't know, as I'd...

    I've got one, and it works flawlessly with my MG5 SR

    💡MG5 REAR INTERIOR LIGHT 💡

    Do you have to faff around to get to just on and off as opposed to the flashing mode?

    Original vs LR features difference

    Well my MG5 SR has USB ports in the back, and has the same screen as the MG5 LR, but doesn't have an app - but then the only UK EV with an app is the new ZS. The MG5 LR doesn't have an app.

    Original vs LR features difference

    That sounds like the ZS not the MG5 LR!

    Charging cable locked in car.

    In my MG 5 the car wont lock, but it will re lock the cable and resume charging!

    Charging cable locked in car.

    You literally have to press unlock on the key, then pull it out. If you press the unlock on the car door, by the time you get to the cable it will have relocked!

    Ohme Home Pro 3.8kW max charge

    I don't believe the MG5 has any available updates besides the kers brake light one. Is your Ohme a tethered charger? Otherwise it might be a type 2 cable issue if you're using it on your Ohme and at Tesco!

    MG5 KERS 3 & Brake Light Operation - Safety Recall?

    After I had mine done, I kept checking from 50, but they only came on when it had slowed down to about 20, which surprised me. They didn't come on until it was a reasonable Temperature either, as KERS doesn't do too much when it's cold! You can see them in the mirror in a dark road, as the rear...

    Equalisation charge

    My MG5 SR, which I always charge to 100% and equalise when I charge at home, sometimes takes 10 minutes, and sometimes 4 to 5 hours to equalise. 95% plus of my charging is done at home on my Wallbox Pulsar Plus. I've not fathomed why it sometimes takes so long but it only uses about 300w/ hour...

    Leaving Car At Airport Car Park

    Well they do charge £5 for 10 minutes drop off plus £1 per minute over. So £17.50 for an hour is a bargain 😡.

    Terrible default Tyres

    MG5 LR Dashcam placement.

    As in my post above they fitted mine for me. I haven't seen the No Ev fitting on the web site you refer to, but I think it depends on the individual fitter!

    Granny Charging

    I've been using one of these without any issue, and it doesn't get warm. https://www.wickes.co.uk/Masterplug-Weatherproof-Garden-Tidy-Extension-Lead---15m-13A/p/205895 But I always spray the pins of the mains plugs (extension and granny) with this...

    Newbie

    Mine works fine if I'm near it over Bluetooth, but connects via my Wi-fi when I'm further away. Have you set up the Wi-fi?

    MG5 KERS 3 & Brake Light Operation - Safety Recall?

    Since I had mine done last Friday, I haven't noticed any difference, although the GOM is still learning after being reset in the update process (it's reading a bit higher miles/kwh). But the general 2 miles per percent is still consistent.
