braking

Dear All . There is a lack of material from the BOSCH equipment; the radar under the license plate; from China ? I have written to SAIC motor, Europe and China; MG EUROPE ; My dealership from Spain, which is also from Honda Subaru and Mitshubisi from more than 20 years ago, does not get a...

Not sure if this is correct but does tapping the brake pedal lightly increase brake regen? For eg, if I'm traveling along at 70mph tops, and then fully let go of the accelerator, the average regen power is about -15. However if I gently tap the brakes power goes to -25. Then if I press harder...

I have noticed now, the stock suspension must be rubbish, coming to a stop at the lights, the weight shifts back front a fair amount. Much like an old wagon or kingswood. Test it next time your out.

Hi, In panic mode a bit thinking something might be wrong. My wife and I tried a few minutes ago to her Yoga class, we unlocked the MG, got in and pressed the brake for ready mode. When ready, I pressed the brake and selected Reverse and then press the accelerator and the car started to move...

Hi guys, The company I work for has an MG ZS 2022 model which is used by various employees for supply runs. Yesterday, our mechanic was on a trip when the EV's brakes locked up taking the car from 60 to 0kph in a second (emergency braking?) He reported no apparent reason for the auto-braking and...

Hi, I always drive using the Eco-mode and with the Kinetic Energy Recovery System (KERS) at level 3. But sometime, especially the first couple of miles, there is no (strong) motor braking. In these moments, it feels like there is a hidden clutch pedal and someone is pressing on it.. How is...

If you set the setting for driving with 1 pedal on a fully loaded MG, this setting does not work, this setting only works when you apparently have 85% battery capacity. Is it correct that this setting is completely linked to energy recovery because it seems that if this setting works, it...

Hello, Driven the car a few days in the snowy north. Few questions I did not find answers to after searching. 1. Does the passenger seat have height adjustment, like the driver seat. Mine does nothing on the passenger side for the height of the seat, only horizontal adjustment front to back...

when the car is regenerative braking, do the stop lights come on?

I’ve been wondering how regenerative braking extends the available range compared with simply coasting whenever possible. My last car, a Merc 250e (hybrid) had coasting as one of the regen options selectable by paddles behind the steering wheel, and when you had to use the brakes while coasting...

In the main, I'm loving Pilot. Came from a 2009 ICE car that had none of that gear. But I must say, the car has made some odd decisions when using ACC. Mostly that when driving along, the car will brake suddenly and severely without any obvious hazard being visible. Has anyone else suffered...

Last night, went for a joy drive, as you do. Tried sport mode and turned off all the nasties. Brake, select drive and off we go, the first 500m is on a badly surfaced narrow downhill track to a small crossroads. Car picks up speed , faster and faster, where is my regen ? brake ,brake harder, ...

Bit overzealous, isn't it? Nearly resulted in a bus going into the back of me today. Average B road, oncoming car was driving safely on their side of the road, my car suddenly goes from 20mph to 0 to the alarm of the bus driver (following at a safe distance). Just wondering what would have...

Hi All, Has anyone with R33 on their car noticed any difference in ACC behaviour compared to R30. I find what when using ACC, even with regen set to 1 or to adaptive the car will come up behind a car to the set distance but brake (or use motor braking most likely) until it falls back, then...

My wife was scared sh**less this morning when her MG4 Trophy did a sudden and totally inappropriate emergency stop, whilst travelling at 30mph through a quiet nearby village. A Tesla was following at a safe distance and fortunately no collision took place. The car was then ok to drive away...

I'm sure most people know that auto-cruise control slows down using the brakes rather than regen which is annoying, but in normal driving then most people think that you get regen when braking? I remember when I posted about my test drive with the ZS and said that I didn't like the fact that it...

In our area, sheep roam free, but are pretty street-wise. We have been aware that our MG is pretty quiet, perhaps silent at low speeds, so have been careful when sheep are in the road. Today, I was coming home, and fortunately was going quite slowly. I saw two holidaymakers with two large black...

Apologies if this has been covered previously. I have a second generation long range and have started to use the autohold function a bit more recently. I noticed that waiting at lights etc if I were to put my foot on the brake instead this would still use some energy whereas the autohold would...

Today our MG4 automatically braked on a level crossing with no other vehicles in sight. I was within in the barriers and the car wouldn’t move for what seemed like ages. I have never been so frightened in my life and my heart was pumping. I was debating whether to just run and leave the car on...

In addition to the MG4 which my wife drives, I also own a Skoda Enyaq. In the Enyaq, the "HOLD" parking brake works and is displayed on the control panel when it is applied and this applies whether the vehicle is in forward or reverse mode. However, in the MG4 there appears to be no visual...
