    It is not only the battery that can fail

    This is interesting to watch. Everyone is worried about the battery but it seems lots of other things could go wrong. What we really need is some independent garages which are experts in electric cars.

    iSmart

    Hi, My iSmart works perfectly well for everything except HVAC. I serviced the car recently and mentioned it but it still exists. When I press the preheat the lights on the car come on. So There is communication. Feels like a software issue. What is the general experience?

    MG4s are great...over the air update (NB click bait)

    Lol... while I was driving suddenly the GOM went UP dramatically. It thought the car does 5.9m/kwh :) Fully charged last night to see 330 miles ( 6.5m/kwh even better). I am now balacing the battery to see if that helps. No idea what went wrong while driving. I am ok as I never use the GOM...

    SE SR charging rate

    This is for SR LFP cars only. I was wondering is SR owners can share their charging speed here in one forum for us to get a feel for what we can expect AND the charging curve. This will help us live better with our cars specially if we are on a trip. Please just put in your experiences. Just...

    Intelligent Battery heating

    Just want to tell you that I was told by MG services that although it is called " Battery Heating ". It actually does cooling as well as heating. So when it says "Ambient temperature low. Switch on Intelligent Battery Heating?" , the engine may be too hot and it wants to cool it. This would make...

    Acceleration at higher speeds

    Driving Normal mode on the motorways, I find trying to increase my speed from 65 to say 70 or 75 is very slow. In fact sometimes I feel it is not going to make it and then I see oh it has, so it must be slowly. At low speeds the acceleration is very very good. Exciting even. I was under the...

    Ambient temperature low

    I sometimes get the message "Ambient Temperature low. Switch on intelligent Battery Heating". In winter it is understandable but I am getting it when the temperature outside is 27 C !!! Does anyone else get this and has any garage solved this problem?

    Hidden keys

    How many hidden keys do we get ? I got two keys with the MG4. One has the hidden key and one does not. IS that the same for all?

    10" screen resonate/vibrate makes a rattling sound

    Anyone else hears a sound from the 10" screen? It stops if I press on the screen and starts again as I let go. If you have the radio on you will not hear it. The sound is not very loud.

    Guess-o-meter calculations. What is your true range and how much you should trust the car's Algo.

    Ok people, get those calculators out. We know the guess-o-meter calculates your range using some dark-art-algorithm from your previous-recent driving style. That is not what I would like us to calculate. I have an SR car and when full it shows a range from 236 to 254 which clearly is wrong (...

    McDonalds

    Just a quick note. I don't travel long distances much. Recently went on a couple of days travelling. Zap-Map, electric universe, shell etc I have it all. However, what came as a surprise was that most McDonalds have InstaVolt fast chargers and they all worked. Rather than ask for EV charging...

    12v battery

    I believe this is done when Equalisation Charging takes place. It seems to also happen under "intelligent Charging" but I have no idea when this is. Gurus , over to you.

    OHME charger

    So I now have the OHME charger. I choose OHME purely because Octopus needs it if you want Octopus Intelligent tariff. Now the problem with OHME is, it is too intelligent !!! It will charge my car to 98% and then stops. I assume in order to preserve the battery. Now, as we know LFP batteries...

    MG4 + Octopus Intelligent

    Summarizing, you can get 6 hours of cheap electricity at 10p/kwh at night and expensive electricity 40pish/kwh during the day. In order to be able to go on this tariff you needs to have an OHME charger. Here is the interesting/question part. I just got this from OHME help desk "For the Ohme...
