    Instavolt disappointment.

    Tried to charge car at the instavolt station, Broadstairs. One I already knew was out of action, but both are unavailable. I reported this to the uninterested person on the other end of the line (10min wait). They said that there was nothing they could do and would report the fault to the...

    Squeaky dashboard.

    Hi, I’ve never been able to cope with squeaks and rattles in cars and in electric cars they’re even more noticeable. I’m hearing a noise like the dash rubbing on the windscreen. Does anyone else have that noise? Should I pop it to the dealer, or should I just turn up the radio? Cheers. K.

    Headlight settings

    Not sure if I’ve got something set incorrectly, but the auto lights basically have my headlights permanently on. Only way I can get running lights is to turn the auto lights off every time I get in the car. Have I missed something, or is something broken?

    Noob charging question...

    Sorry if this a "Well, D'Uh!.." question but it's literally my first go at this rodeo. I have just plugged in the granny charger for the first time, per the manual (doors locked &c.), but despite the charger block "charging light" flashing, the display in the car doesn't say "charging" (it...

    Fording through water...

    OK, more of a general EV question... I'm looking out the window at a torrential downpour, and we have quite a few roads that flood around here. Now I know the electrics on the mG5 (generally) are IP67-rated (short immersion proof), but is anyone aware of any limitations/cautions to that? At...

    Service Booklet

    Hi all. I have just received my MG 5 EV. I can't for the life of me find a service booklet. Can anyone else confirm there is such a booklet? I know several other manufacturers have changed to digital only service information but would like to check. Thanks Simon

    Granny charger waterproof?

    Stupid question of the week award, but I assume the supplied MG granny charger is full waterproof? As in, the entire unit? I have an outdoor socket near where I part that I'll be using for meantime until I can decide on which wall box to go for.

  14. How low can (will) you go with your charge level?

    I'm curious if anyone is braver than me and tested out the MG5 range towards the bottom end of the charge levels? I drive across country regularly on a 195 mile route, and have always erred on the side of caution and filled up halfway. With the summer, I have been trying out driving further...

    My 1st InstaVolt issue......

    Yesterday I was on a 190 mile round trip, so I decided to top up for 10 mins in the morning at 55% to ensure a comfortable 70mph trip home. I plugged in, popped to the shop to get a breakfast roll, ate it and decided to stop the charge. First Touch screen button “stop charging” no problem, the...

    Charging MG5 EV with 3-pin charger only over pavement, my experienced in a terraced property in London

    I hope it is okay for me to post a video I made about my experiences charging using the granny-lead only on my MG5. This forum has been immensely helpful in suggesting new products to use to make charging safer for owners as well as pedestrians when running charge cables over the pavement.

    Battery switch

    ..So.. What's the "Battery" switch, to the right of the "KERS" switch, for? I downloaded the manual, and it's not referenced at all, not even numbered in the diagrams... ..12 hrs to go 'til pick-up.. :) Arf

    Charge port cover not opening.

    Hi all, I’ve only had my MG5 a week and the ‘MG’ logo charge port cover won’t open anymore when I push it. Has this happened to anyone else? Any ideas how to fix the problem? Thanks in advance.
