    Connected but not recognised error - SORTED!!

    EDIT - all sorted, 10min negative terminal disconnect fixed things! Assuming this is a MG assistance issue? Have had zero problems with the car until today…has only just had second service last week too - just my luck!!! Noticed the 12v battery displaying 11.8v, and then the message ‘connected...

    MG4 Weather App fails to implement

    Hi Guys, I got a new XR this week and all the software was updated before I collected. The only thing that is not working is the weather app. I have rebooted the screen and it is connected via Bluetooth and WiFi. It says it has failed implementation and does not let me set the location. Are...

    X Power 6 months report. 🙂

    Had my X Power 6 months this weekend. And still loving it. It's not disappointed at all. I've been lucky enough not to have been plagued by, the faults/foibles or whatever you want to call them. That other X Power/MG4 owner's have had. Infact it's been pretty much faultless. So hopefully it...

    MG 4 charging

    I posted a couple of weeks ago about the fact that I had suddenly stopped being able to use Intelligent Octopus Go as connection had been lost and it wouldn't reconnect. To try to sort it out, I would ring Octopus who would be utterly charming and tell me they were escalating it but nothing...

    First case of Range Anxiety

    This morning I needed to do a 25 mile round trip, and I started with an estimated range of 31 miles, so I thought I'd go for it. I wouldn't normally risk such a journey, or let the battery get so low, but I have free electricity all day tomorrow, courtesy of my Energy Provider, so I didn't...

    Service Campaigns - MG4 Trophy LR

    MY MG4 Trophy is in for its 1st service in April and I'd like the latest "improvements" added during the service. I've already booked the car in and requested SC077 (LKA) to be done, but I don’t know what else could or should be done as a Service Campaign at the same time. Can anyone tell me...

    MG4 deals (UK March 2025) and dodgy range claims

    Found these adds the other day and there seem to be some really good prices, but claiming an XPower has a range of 323 miles is not believable

    Xpower Workshop Manual ?

    Has anyone seen anything Xpower specific in any workshop manuals? AFAIK I’ve scanned / used the generic MG4 one a few times in the past which has been really helpful but can’t find anything specific for the Xpo, the only reference I can find is in the general manual under technical info for...

    Xpower The truth?

    Hi all , as some of you may know I've posted a number of videos on you tube on the vibration and the way MG, the dealer, finance company treated me. By no means is the episode over. Anyway the truth ? There are so many people denying there is a problem, if they feel their car doesn't vibrate...

    One for the Driving Instructors: Can You Use Auto Hold in a Driving Test?

    Not really an EV question as such, but I’m curious about using Auto Hold during a driving test. Back when I did my test, it was in a manual horse and cart! At traffic lights, for example, you were expected to apply the handbrake and put the car in neutral. I’m just wondering—can you use Auto...

    Granny charger safety

    We should be getting our car on Tuesday (it was supposed to be today but that's another story) and Octopus have yet to give me a date for installation of a charger. I had intended to use a granny charger in the meantime. However, our house is 35m from the car so I'd have to use an extension...

    Mg4 boot tailgate transparent seal issue

    See picture Mg4 central boot tailgate focusing on the area where a transparent seal meets a black trim piece. The seal appears to be part of the rear bumper tail light or tail lamp assembly of an MG4 EV. The image highlights the seal's condition, which may be of interest due to potential issues...

    Wanted: Android App to show real time consumption data

    Hi, I'm looking for an app which shows a realtime display of the actual consumption/use of energy while driving, like an old fashioned 'economy gauge' . I've tried Car Scanner (the free version) but it doesn't seem to do what I'm looking for. I've got an ODB bluetooth adapter, so it's just an...

    Air Con vs Heating etc

    Hi, In ICE cars we all know that AC on means compressor on and loss of power/poorer fuel consumption. I've never noticed having the fan on gently made much difference to the MPG either. Now when I turn the fans on, even at pretty much ambient temperature and leave it on low, the mileage drop...

    M6 mayhem

    Thought this experience might be of interest for some of the community. Yesterday I was one of the many hundreds of frustrated drivers sitting on the M61/M6 around Preston. In my case that was for 8 hours, finally getting off at Preston around 10pm. What interested me about this otherwise...

    My initial thoughts on One Pedal Drive

    Had my Trophy for a few weeks now and decided to give one-pedal driving (OPD) a go over the weekend. My initial reaction was to hate it—mostly because I kept lifting my foot too high off the throttle, causing the car to slow down very quickly. I forced myself to keep using it, and over time, I...
