braking
A brake is a mechanical device that inhibits motion by absorbing energy from a moving system. It is used for slowing or stopping a moving vehicle, wheel, axle, or to prevent its motion, most often accomplished by means of friction.
Have had my car for coming upto a month done 1600 miles and showing 68.9 mpg, which is great
. Have 2 major concerns demisting and twice now car has applied auto braking, once with my wife in the car and she freaked out!.Thankfully did not get rear ended, what is causing this issue and how to...
My MG4 Excite 64 ADAS results in sudden braking if I’m turning right (driving on left side of road) into oncoming traffic. If too close to oncoming car just passing by my car, ADAS activates with sudden braking. Anyone else experienced this?
I always turn off LKA and now Front Collision Assist before starting every journey since nearly being rear ended after starting to overtake a parked car a few months ago when my MG4 Trophy suddenly jammed the brakes on. However, yesterday while driving through a built up area at about 35mph in a...
I have a 2020 MG HS, which I bought in August last year, I have had various issues with the braking system and mg have had my car for 3 months now and upon advice from MG technical have replaced various components, none of these have worked, this car is still taxed and insured. It was already...
Hi,I just received my MG4 51 kWh 2023 model today, and I'm having a lot of fun getting used to the regenerative braking. Using one-pedal driving is interesting! I have a few questions -
When you lift your foot off the accelerator, the car starts to brake. Do the brake lights turn on when you...
We have just done a road trip south (well most things are south for us) and on our way to Inverness, along a road we know pretty well, we pass a four way junction that needs caution. A little way after that, there is a road to one side that also needs care as people may be waiting for a while...
Hi, new here. I have a 2021 MG HS, and I turn automatic braking off on it. It has now turned it on four times without warning. This has actually given me whiplash because it is so paranoid, then made it worse twice now but doing the same thing. Is this a unique to me problem or a common issue...
Hi all, Something I’ve been meaning to ask, when you are using the regenerative braking (tacking your foot of pedal ) do the brake lights come on, otherwise it could be a problem if you have Mr BMW close behind. Cheers Tony
So, looking through breakers and came across this (very) sad sight.
Hopefully no-ones on here ?
What do you reckon then looking at the damage ? Unexpected sharp 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...
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...
