    A cautionary tale

    Mary (not her real name), started her MG5 to hit the sales in town, but just before driving off she realised her purse was missing. She got back into the house, dropped her keys on the counter, went upstairs to get her money and off she went. It’s only when the car refused to start coming home...

    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...

    Granny Charger Power

    My MG OEM granny charger came from my MG5 where as I recall it used to input nearly 3 KW. I am now using it on my S6 and it only does between 1.9 and 2.1 KW. Has any one else got better charging rates or is this an S5 thing? Perhaps not all granny chargers are the same?

Total consumption for the day was just over 74kWh. This was satisfied with 31 kWh from...

    Finally got around to fitting another MG HS parts bin upgrade to my PFL. Thought I'd do a step by step as the rear interior light question is often asked.

    Disabling auto window open 'feature'

    Hi, I've had all the windows open on my PFL MG5 overnight - once when it was raining quite heavily. It's only happened a few times but worrying in the winter! I know it's a 'feature' but one I'm prepared to live without. Does anybody know if there is any way to disable this function before I...

    Replacement Headlights

    Hi all, Im sure this has been asked a million times. Am I correct in thinking the original bulbs are HB3 9005. I have just bought HB 3 9006 and they dont fit. It seems as you twist the bulb in place the black plastic lugs are different sizes? They are smaller on the new bulbs. Can anyone help?

    MG App stopped working!

    Anyone else getting the same issue as this? And if so, how to resolve it. My app stated the token had expired, or some such nonsense, 1 year on from getting the car, and I needed to log in again. I have, of course, forgotten the password I set a year back. No problem I thought, just click on...
