    1 year on from purchase - thoughts and experiences

    Figured it would useful to stick fingers to keyboard to note my experiences of a Trophy LR as we've owned it for 12 months. It's on just over 11k miles and has just had a service, we've done a round trip to Scotland and back (1100 miles) and despite the usual charger carnage at peak times on...

    Sensor behind rear vision mirror?

    Does anyone know what this circled area on the back of the rear vision mirror of my Aussie MG4 Long Range 77 MY24 is? My guess is some kind of sensor I'm not sure if I should install my dashcam stuck onto the windshield in a place that could block this possible sensor, or it doesn't matter

    Playlist order workaround

    Hi, I was annoyed at the car messing up my music playlists so I made myself a python script to modify the audio files and force it to keep the same order. I figured I might as well post the script on GitHub with some other tips. https://github.com/Vaasref/MG4_Media_Playlist I don't know how...

    Home charging puzzle!

    I’ve recently bought an MG4 Trophy Long Range and an Ohme Epod home charger. The car display says the car is not charging above 5.7 kW, but Ohme customer support have logged onto the charger and tell me that the Epod is charging at 6.5kW! Ohme say I should see if there is any way to adjust /...

    MG4 EV advice for newbie

    Hello all, Looking for owners of MG4s to offer some experience both positive and negative to convince me that a good salary sacrifice offer through work for a 2023 used long range with 6000 miles on the clock is worth a punt as I've never been convinced by EVs! I cover around 10000 miles a...

    Battery Life down to 242 miles rather than 275

    Hi, as you can see per photo. Recently, my battery life of the car is saying it's max'd at 242 miles, which is weird because for the previous charge it was saying around the 275 mark. Car is MG 4 EV Trophy Long range. I drive on Normal mode. I have the pre-heating setting off. The AC was off...

    Hi, Got my Xpower a week ago and can't really use the main panel for phone charging as it flies away pretty quickly when i push the "gas" pedal (you know the "xpower world problems"... ;)).

    Evening, all Plugged my car in at home a couple of nights ago, but no charge added by the morning. The circuit breaker on the charger hadn't tripped so I assumed it was one of those software glitches and thought I'd have another go after the weekend. However... Cable gets plugged in, lights...

    A wireless carplay adaptor that actually seems to work reliably?!

    I've been using a Carlinkit 5.0 for the best part of a year and it's been reasonable; once you set the "startup delay" to 25 or 30 seconds and make sure you've updated the firmware it works 90% of the time which for me was OK - my wife was less impressed with the occasional dropout and so I...

    Locking Wheel Nuts?

    I thought I'd done well, 16 months in and no wheel or tyre damage. Then I kerbed the front nearside. Fortunately have alloy wheel cover. The repairer's instructions state that the "locking wheel nut key" must be available. Can't find one, anywhere with the car. Not referred to in the Owners...

    MG4 battery always dead after holiday

    So twice now I've gone on a 2 week holiday. When I return the car is dead. The 12V battery is completely dead. I make sure I don't open the app and don't have any lights etc on. Surely this isn't right? AA guy says the battery is fine, it's just dead.
