    Auto HVAC problem

    Hi all, I've got a 22 plate Exclusive and I am having problems with the HVAC in Auto. When I put the HVAC in Auto the fan come on full bars and doesn't seem to adjust when temperature is reached. The air con seems to constantly fight the heater so it's blowing hot and cold at the same time. On...

    Last of the cheap EVs ?

    Is the outgoing MG5 the last of the 'cheap' over 200 miles EVs ? The facelift ZS is more expensive than the Gen 1, which in turn was more expensive than the 5 to start with and I'm sure the facelift 5 will be more expensive than the Mk1 MG5, SR or LR.. I think we all know that we need more EVs...

    Eco,N or S and Kers 1,2 or 3 research

I am interested in the relative merits of driving in different modes and Kers settings (MG5 SR) in relation to battery efficiency. Has any detailed research...

    Alarm going off when charging MG5 LR

    Picked up my used MG5 LR exclusive yesterday. Wanted to test the charging using a Ohme charger. Set the charger to only charge at cheap rate which I had set the time from 00:30 to 04:30 About 00:30 the alarm started going off, so pressed the unlock button. After the 30secs everything locked and...

    Optimistic range estimation.

    Now that it is warmer, the batteries work better. But, over 290 miles is a tad optimistic I'd say ?

    Mg 5 and Lockdowns

    Hi all. Still patiently awaiting any news on my Blue Excite LR MG5 ordered end March. Does anyone know where the MG5 is made in China and if that specific factory is affected by the covid lockdowns or not? Trying to manage my own expectations :)

    Annoyingly forgetful preferences.

    Anyone else find a number of options don't remain turned on between charges or long periods of not being used (I.e. parking overnight) I find it a real annoyance that every time I get in the car to start a journey, I have to switch the KERS to 3, turn on the auto parking break and make sure the...

    Cheap boot liner but BE QUICK

    This boot liner is just £10.50 on Amazon at the moment. I doubt it'll be that price for long. I wasn't really in the market for one but at that price it was rude not to. I realise it won't be good enough for many but the reviews are, on the whole, good. Normal price is £21.49

    Good, bad or average?

My car is a standard range 5 SR. I fully charged before I left home, and charged...

    Long term park up

    We have some trips away planned and I'm keen to know what state I should leave the battery in. Is fully charged best or a lower percentage? If you leave the car at an airport you've not much choice but I'm looking at leaving it at home for a month or two. Will the 12v battery be ok? Any...

    Auto headlight flashing

    I have a brand new 22 plate mg5 long range. A couple of times when Ive used the car at dusk the headlights can’t make up their mind whether to turn on or not and switch on and off. This annoys the hell out of oncoming traffic which thinks I’m flashing them. I have to put the lights on manually...

    MG5 LR AC Charging - does it stop automatically when full?

    As per the title. I'll be astonished if the answer is no, yet I can't find confirmation of this anywhere, so just checking. My assumption is that if I leave it on either a slow or fast charger overnight, it will charge the battery, perform its equalisation thingy, then stop without any...
