    Screeching noise from back end whilst cornering!

    MG ZS LR 2023. Screeching noise whilst cornering! Sorry if this has been covered elsewhere, and thanks if you can re-direct me to that thread. I'm getting a screeching noise from the rear end when I'm going round a right angled bend or corner even from a speed of about 30 mph. It's OK going...

    A "metal-to-metal" type noise whilst cornering??

    Hello, all, And apologies if this has been covered and I haven't seen it, but I seem, on occasions, to be getting a coming from my rear end of the car (MG ZS EV LR 2023) whilst cornering. At first I thought it might just be a bit of tyre squeal due to road conditions but today we heard it...

    Radio Ga Ga?

    Hello all. As you may have seen on this week's podcast, I'm struggling to see how I simply switch the radio On & Off.:unsure: But - the car has taken this issue out of my hands and has taken over on its own, as my radio is now auto switching on and off as it wishes without any input from me...

    Pretty impressive range - delighted!!

    I've just had a couple of nights away to the Kintyre peninsula (pause for Paul McCartney singing in the background). It's a great run from Inverness, but I drove all the way on Eco, and KERS 1. The AirCon was on for a wee while on the way down, but mostly just sunroof fully open. Due to the...

    Winter protection

    I bought this on Ebay this week for just under a tenner to keep the snow from gathering on the windscreen and air intakes, and it protects the side mirrors from freezing up closed too! Quite pleased with it so far!

    Red warning - Slow Charge this Vehicle

    Hi Guys, I'm not sure if this is tied to the ongoing BMS thread, but I have just had this warning flash up on the information panel in RED - Slow Charge this Vehicle. I had 75 and then 70 miles range still showing on Normal on the 2 occasions it lit up. Is it tied to the BMS issue, and I take...

    Hydrogen Powered EV Rapid Chargers

    On first reading, this article appears very interesting. It would be a great way of placing Rapid Chargers on main roads where there is a gap between existing charging points. New Hydrogen Fuel Cell-Powered Fast Chargers - FuelCellsWorks But as a non-techie, the comments at the end questioning...

    Welcome to our Australian EV drivers

    Welcome all, It's great to see the membership growing. In addition to the usual UK threads, up to now we have also had some really great input from mainland Europe such as the Netherlands, Norway, Denmark etc and now we see some activity from MG ZS EV owners and dealerships in Australia. I...

    MG ZS EV Wish List for Santa

    Someone kicked off this idea on last night's podcast, so let's see what the good boys and girls out there would like to see that's not currently on their MG ZS EV. I know some Scrooge will come back saying that all these things will drive up the purchase price, but just for a bit of seasonal...

    Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) Review into EV Charge point provision

    I thought this was an interesting article in a news feed I receive, but a little lacking in detail. I would actually look forward to being contacted to input into their survey. https://reut.rs/3qnvfXo

    What a difference a Season makes!!

    We have need to drive through to Aberdeen from Inverness (fully Nicola compliant!!) on a pretty regular basis, and in the summer months this fell into a very agreeable routine. We would set off to complete the 105 mile trip with a full charge, but normally stop at Inverurie (88 miles away) and...

    Creaking noise from Steering Column

    Forgive me, but I think there was an earlier thread suggesting this, but at that stage, it didn't affect me. But now, at just over 8,000 miles, I've developed a really annoying creaking noise from the Steering Column. The strange thing is when I switch the car off and turn the column left and...

    Hello all, I've already had the Comfort 2 upgrade, but I'm taking my car in for a Battery Management software update this week. Do you know what I can expect following the update?

    First it was Range Anxiety - now I've got Charger paranoia!!

    On a trip down to Edinburgh this week, I stopped at Broxden Park & Ride, Perth for the first time. Wow! It has an array of chargers, 3 x multi tethered outlet ; 3 or 4 untethered and what I can only call an avenue of Tesla chargers. But I couldn't get a CCS charge of any of the three! One was...

    My first ever angry email to the Government

    As you will have picked up from my previous thread, I am about to undertake the North Coast 500 next week. The south west section already has quite a poor distribution of charging points, but I repeatedly see from ZapMap and PlugShare that the one at Torridon which we would need to ensure we...

    North Coast 500

    I'm planning on doing the North Coast 500 in 2 week's time (end of Aug 2020) in my ZS EV. It's a 500 mile tour round the north of Scotland, very scenic. very picturesque, that we're doing over 3 days.. I've planned all the stops and factored in 2 overnight stops at Gairloch and Thurso. For...

    Howdy, neighbour!

    As I have said in previous forum threads, I'm loving this car now, and I can only excuse what I did on Tuesday of this week, as an act of "spreading the love!" In Inverness, heading out the old Beauly Road, I saw a red MG ZS coming toward me. I can't say for sure if it was an EV, as it was hard...

    Passenger Seat modification - would it work?

    Hello, all. This is aimed at the techie forum members (of which I am NOT one!) If the ZS EVs in Europe, with left hand drive, also have electrically adjustable seats (do they?), would it be possible to buy a European drivers seat, and fit it as a UK electrically adjustable passenger's seat? Or...

    What Apps do you like and/or trust?

    I'm sure I'm not on my own here, but I now have about 7 EV charging advice apps and 2 map apps on my mobile that I seem to constantly look at for charger point locations and operating status. But I'm getting confused about the type and quality I am being provided. For instance, on my way back...
