    Grinding/ Scraping Noise from MG5 LR

    Afternoon all. I've just had the most horrendous grinding/ scraping noise coming from my MG5 LR. It appears to be coming from the wheel area so possibly brake discs? The car is nearly 4 years old and had no real problems with it so far, fast wearing tyres aside. It started out of nowhere...

    Switched my MG5 for an MGS5

    I have just upgraded from a pre-facelift MG5 61kWh Exclusive to an MGS5 Trophy LR and these are my thoughts after a couple of weeks' ownership: The MGS5 is much quieter inside, the outside noise drops away as soon as you close the door. Up to 30mph, it is practically silent. There is some wind...

    HVAC Power Use

    Apologies if there is an obvious answer for this: I have a PFL MG5 with the "two dials" HVAC controls, rather than climate control. What does the white, middle section of the temperature setting mean? Does it mean "not heated, not cooled", or does it mean "medium temperature"? I like to use...

    I've posted about my own measurements via Car Scanner before but I got the official reading today at my 4th annual service and it's still 100%. Can anyone beat that?

    Going camping - how to keep my beer cool?

    I'm planning a camping trip with tent etc. I'd hoped to buy a simple 12V coolbox to plug into the car. But now find there's no 12V socket in the boot. I could buy an extension lead and plug it under the dash - but I assume that won't be powered while the car is switched off (e.g. overnight). So...

    Hi everyone, I've had my 2022 MG5 for about three months, and put about 5000 miles on it so far. The car's been amazing, but today it has starting showing a "System Fault" error. I've also lost the use of the radio, heated seats, and all of the driving aids - ACC, lane assist and collision...

    MG5 DRL Fault

    I have a 2022 MG5 LR Exclusive. I've noticed over the last few days that the nearside DRL (daytime running light) is flashing rather than being on steady. This is the LED(?) strip that runs around the outside edge of the headlamp lens. It would appear that this is not replaceable and would...

    Charge door mechanism broken

    After just one month of use, the charge port door / charge flap mechanism stopped working. The 'receiving' end on the car 'fell' into the car'. The pin and door itself are still in excellent condition. There is now just a hole where the mechanism used to be. I booked it in with MG Bristol North...

    App showing alarm activation

    Question about the app (FL SE): not every time, but a few times a week when I open the app it says the alarm has gone off , but is now deactivated so I can drive fine. But the car is on the drive and hasn’t had the alarm go off and it seems to say the activation was in the middle of the Atlantic...

    Were is the 360 button on the 2023 FL MG5 Trophy?

    Below is a direct quote from the MG5 Trophy (2023, facelift) manual. It mentions you can invoke the 360 view by using a button. But I`ve looked on the car and cannot see any such 360 button. I have a fiddly drive and invoking 360 view whilst crawling forward to park would be very useful. Any...
