    Battery Failure and Repair History

    I posted this last December: After seven months at the MG dealership, my car is still not repaired (Virtu Motors, Edinburgh West). They report frequently but just one excuse after another. First they didn't have a level 3 technician, then MG disagreed the scope of the repair, then no battery...

    Weird noise

    My MG5 has started making a strange pulsating droning noise from about 35 mph upwards but seems to disappear at around 70 mph. The MG garage suggested I needed a new set of tires but that has made no difference. I’ve had the wheels tracked the noise still there? Has anybody else experience this...

    Cubby coin holder

    While we live in an almost cashless society these days, there are times when a couple of quid coins come in handy. Unfortunately the pre-facelift MG5 lacks any sort of storage apart from the glove box and the cubby between the seats. So to that end I have designed a 3D-printable coin tray that...

    MG5 electric tailgate finally Fitted.

    I love my MG5, but one thing I hated was the boot—it was a pain to close. Whenever I was holding a box, I had to rest it on the rear window ledge while using my other hand to close the boot. No matter how carefully I tried, it always slammed shut. I found a kit and was a bit sceptical at first...

    MG5 SR 4th Service Advice!

    I bought a low mileage MG5 standard range last year. It's now due its 4th year service and I was wondering what others had paid for theirs to be done.

    Auto dip headlight - how to reactivate?

    Usually I don’t touch the auto dipping headlight function - it just works automatically. Tonight, coming home, it seemed to have deactivated itself. I could not reactivate it. Is there a knack or secret switch?
