    MG5 EV 2023 LR Rapid Charging, recovery & resolution guide

    I want to share my recent experience of breaking down at a charging station and the solution. This was only my 2nd attempt at charging away from home. I arrived early at South Mimms Services on the M25, read the instructions on the charger, paid and then plugged in. Nothing was happening so I...

    Would not stay in D or R

    Today, I encountered a curious fault where I pressed the brake and selected R, in the normal way, but then upon letting go of the brake it automatically sent back to P. I tried several times and it would not stay in R. I also tried D but it would not stay in that either. I switched the car off...

    Been a lot of talk of the VCU recently - What is it ?

    The VCU has been mentioned in several threads* recently and that there is an update for it. There are hopes this update will cure all ills. I hadn't got a clue what it was so looked it up and if anyone else is the same boat (or EV) then basically it is the Vehicle Control Unit that communicates...

    Anybody using a MG5 as a taxi?

    Hi, I am looking to either purchase a MG4 Trophy or the MK1 MG5. Looking online a good low mileage 2nd hand 5 will save me nearly 10k over the 4 trophy. I'm going to do about 25/30k a year and my thoughts are the depreciation I'm going to put on a MG4 Trophy over a MG5. I would be interested in...

    MG5 my experience after 4 months

    This is my first post on the site, but I have been an avid reader of the forum since I joined which was prior to me buying my MG 5. The information from the forum has been invaluable to me both before and after purchase. I have now owned my car for 4 months and covered 3000 miles and thought I...

    Out with "old" and in with the new

    Upgraded from a ZS to the 5 even though it was only 2 years old. Just didn't have enough range for our needs. We were thinking silver but (luckily) they only had red or black in stock for immediate delivery. I must say, it looks pretty sharp in that color and matches the house! As we've found...

    Roof rails load bearing or not

    Ok what's all this about MG5 EV roof rails being for decoration only ??? If you sell an estate car with roof rails with the correct roof bar attachment profile the expectation is that they can carry a load !

    MG5 Second Service

    My MG5 is coming up to its second service at just over 20k miles. Just had a quote from Glyn Hopkin for £380. This seems outrageous to me. Anyone had similar experiences?

    I've never had such a bad car. MG5 EV

    Problems with all sorts of things, but the worst is the autonomy they advertise of 400km when the maximum is 200km. Acts as an emergency brake on the highway, cross control broken with 3000km of use.
