    Front electronic vent

    I was just topping the washer fluid up, when I heard the front grill electric vent opening and closing constantly. I’ve noticed this in the car but obviously much louder when stood in front of the car. Why would it need to do this, especially when the ambient temp is about 1degree! Apart from...

    MG 4 deep sleep mode

    I'm unable to heat the car or defrost the windscreen via the app. The app tells me the car is out of range even though it's parked 10 yards away and I can unlock and lock it via the app. Or the car is in deep sleep mode even though I can unlock and lock it via the app. Any suggestions...

    Upgrading base MG4 as much as possible...

    Hi! So I got my base MG4 (51 kwh) at a discounted price (about 18k USD new) a couple of months ago and so far I'm really happy with it. At this point I’ve gotten a rear camera installed by MG (base model came without one here by default for third world reasons) and upgraded the interior...

    Does anyone know the peak charging current of the 12V battery?

    I'm looking to possibly replace my SLA 12V battery with a LiFePO4 version. However some of these batteries have limited charging current, for example some of them can only charge at 50A. Has anyone measured or does anyone know what the typical and max charging current is while the 12V battery...

    Etiquette when flashing ?

    With the advent of LED lights (not just the MG4) and brighter dipped lights in general, what is a suitable etiquette when opposing drivers flash their main beams at you? For an example: the other night driving into town on dipped beams, the road being bumpy so the car was lurching up and down...

    Evaporator needs replacing

    My evaporator needs replacing in my MG4 already. I got it in November of 2022. I was told it is not under warranty as it's not the "engine", which I find ludicrous. I'm also not happy that at 3 years I need to replace such a big part. Anyone else have evaporator issues?

    Have MG sorted out the MG4 yet?

    Hi, I’m looking to take some test drives in the new year for the MG5, the MG4 and the Model 3. Head says MG5 but I do find it a bit…fugly. I’m sure the Model 3 is a great car but I’m honestly put off by the image and also worry that Tesla could implode if the tech bubble had a sharp...

    A sensible way to charge from home.

    MG4 headlight adjustment

    The headlghts are great other than there's a black hole between the dip and high beam, is there no way of bringing down the high beam withoutout lowing both? I always have the setting on 2 to avoid constant flashing from oncommers, but then on high I'm still just spotting Owls! - most annoying.
