    Wheel trim theft?

    One of my MG4 wheel trims 'disappeared' in a garden centre car park whilst we were inside, I had not kerbed my car or collided with anything. I looked to ebay for a new one but those there were all used. Are some people pinching wheel trims only to sell them back on ebay and get a 'good ebayer'...

    Weird clunk

    Very odd one…. Driving along one day at around 25mph I got the most unnerving clunk with weird almost split second loss of power. It sounded mechanical like an auto box banging into gear or really short harsh change. No warning but thought it may have been the emergency thing whacking the...

    Poor emergency stop

    I failed to stop when entering a roundabout behind a driver who changed their mind suddenly. I'm confident that I would have stopped in my last BMW and my wife's Polo, but my MG4 didn’t seem to assist at all, if anything the brakes went a bit spongy. Isn’t it supposed to do emergency stops, even...

    For better or worse ;) I bought one of these for our 1 week old MG4 via eBay link - described as: iON Tech 7kW 32A EV Charger 5 Meter Tethered Type 2 Level 2, 5x Cards+ Wi-Fi APP As with a lot of 'cheap' (and I assume Chinese) equipment, likely good hardware is let down by (very) poor manuals...

    Scheduled Charging Solution

    Hi Folks, I've had my MG 4 red Exclusive (Trophy) for 2.5 months. Absolutely love the car but for one annoyance - scheduling charging. Tried all sorts to no avail so I called my MG dealer, they put me through to an engineer and problem solved. He told me clear the cache in the app, log out/log...

    Fix to get MG- ismart app to connect every time.

    I’ve found a fix to connect to MG ismart from your phone every time when away from your car. When the ismart app stops connecting to your car and times out , a way to get it to connect again (this can be done anywhere you are ) press the open button on your cars key then close the car again...

    Wheels not balanced on new car

    Anyone else had their MG4 delivered with the wheels not balanced correctly? I had a slight vibration at 65-70mph. Had the balance checked at the local tyre place - 1mth old and 1k miles - every wheel was out of balance. 2 needed 15g added, one 20g, and one 25g. The tyre place couldn't...

    My current gripe with my MG4 LR/Trophy (Right hand drive)

    So I got a LR edition sourced from Australia/NZ or made for that market. I'm still praying that the auto emergency brake does not result in someone crashing into me because of phantom braking and I've urged my wife to turn off ELK (to be fair, it's not as bad as AEB) But funny enough, this is...

    Go through with update – or wait?

    Collected an MG 4 Luxury (Trophy LR) the other day. Haven't made any long trips or driven it too much just yet, but this far I'm very pleased with it! No issues, bugs or the like that many others have experienced (touch wood). However, the car is using the R40 software. Before my purchase I got...
