    Tail Gate Strip?

    Hi All, Picked up my MG5 EV on Thursday. Does anyone know what the big black strip of plastic below the rear number plate is for? It looks so out of place. I assume its for some bike rack mount or something. Some of the promotional photographs show it and some don't and I dont specifically...

    Heating by heat pump?

    Hi Another question... Can the MG5 use its heat pump to heat the cabin or is it just for cooling with an electric PTC heater? And does it also use waste heat from the battery or motor (I think both are liquid cooled) for cabin heating? Cheers

    MG5 - Charging whilst unlocked

    Hi I'm thinking about getting a MG5 but it not charging whilst unlocked (as the manual says it won't) sounds a bit of a pain. I've seen posts about the ZS saying that it would always rapid charge when unlocked and following a software update it will charge on AC whilst unlocked too. Can anyone...

    Updating the built-in satnav

    Anyone done this yet? I created an account on mgtouch.naviextras.com and downloaded the Naviextras toolbox to my Windows PC. Put a formatted USB stick into the car as instructed and ran the update which seeds the stick with the current information I guess and then ran the toolbox which tells...

    Android Auto customisation re. charging points

    I was just trying customise what apps are available within Android Auto and in particular those to do with charging points - Zap Map f.ex. Not had any luck so far - it doesn't seem to be totally user configurable. I know you could use Google Maps to find charging points and maybe that's just as...
