    Keyless door locking

    Why does the mg5 not automatically lock the doors when you walk away from the car. I know it's possible as if you unlock the car with the remote the car will auto lock after 20 secs?

    MG5 keyless/ Faraday key cage

    I have a Faraday key bag and use it, but because of how near one needs to be to activate the keyless, does this mean, if someone was trying to steal your hey signal would they not have to be equally as close or is pick up ( signal cloning)equipment far more sensitive than the car is. Any thoughts

    Typical 12v battery level?

    I’ve had my mg5 LR for about two months, and I’m sat in it waiting to AA assist, as it’s broken down with a system fault, hv battery shut off fault. It seemed to be caused by a dodgy GeniePoint charger at Morrisons, which caused my 12v to go from 14.1 to 12.1. This got me wondering, as I’m new...

    Door Mirror Folding While Driving

    The door mirrors can be folded whilst driving by depressing the adjustment knob downwards and pressing again to unfold. But this function seems to be speed sensitive and won't work above about 10mph. This is not mentioned in the manual, but I assume it is built like that as driving at higher...
