    Pointless journeys

    I,ve just been to my local supermarket ( 4kms return trip ) and somehow have done 50 kms. When looking at the odometer I reckon 35% of the amount has just been hooning around. So much for being ecologically minded.

    MG4 steaming up problem

    My new (fabulous!) MG4 Trophy keeps fogging up! The recirculation setting is set to outside air but unless the fan is on no air appears to be coming in. Is it always necessary to have fan on (?battery drain?) Or shouldn't the forward motion of the car let air in? Any thoughts anyone? Many thanks!
  3. X Power alloy wheel blemishes

    I thought I would mention, that while cleaning all four alloys I noticed blemishes in the lacquer/base black. All four alloys had similar faults which were uneven to the touch and some looked like runs. Whether they will deteriorate who knows? The base black on the inside flat part of the rim...

    An elegant electronic symbiosis (aka using CarPlay)

    Back in the UK and catching up with my XPower. Finally realised the hotspot password isn’t the MG password I chose originally or the PIN but a separate password given in the infotainment. Tried it with my iPhone 14. Worked first time. And it supports Apple CarPlay. The car gives the phone...

    Anyone got a message that the car will automatically reduce regeneration?

    I friend of mine usually get a message telling that the car will reduce the regen. After that it's like having regen on the lowest setting, even if it's set to eco and 3. That doesn't happen to my car. Anyone know what's causing this?

    Poor radio sound

    Hi, First post. I’ve recently purchased a new MG4 SE SR and I’m really impressed with it. My first EV was the ID3 and this car is definitely better than that.

    YouTube comment about MG4 battery management, LFP vs NMC

    I came across this comment on a YouTube video by a commentator going by the handle of NIanais. I'll quote the important part here. (She - I assume she, because of the feminine avatar - also goes on to criticise MG's customer service, in terms we're all familiar with.) To begin with, we must...
