    Plastic ‘aero’ wheel trims

    Hi all, Anyone else got these in their car instead of alloys? ATS came out yesterday to put new tyres on the front and couldn’t get the trims off so we’re about to refuse the jobs when I said that I would remove them. Ended up having to use a pry bar and half of the clips broke off each trim...

    Caution before buying electric

    Hi. Friends are thinking of getting a used electric MG5 but they've read about platinum from catalytic converters being stolen from petrol cars. Have any catalytics been converted to work on this model and should they be concerned? In the same way that carbon monoxide is poisionous, could...

    Recommend me a wireless Android Auto dongle for a FL MG5

    Looking through the forums, It seems that plenty of MG EV owners have played around with Android Auto wireless dongles, with varying levels of success. What I`m not seeing, is many reports of long term reliability of dongles attached to an MG5. Would those with some experience be able to...

    Tyre Pressure Sensor

    Does anyone know if the Tyre Pressure Sensors are coded to the car? And, if so, what would I need to do if I replaced a wheel with a different sensor? Is it the sort of thing you can do with Car Scanner Pro?

    Internal thermostat not working

    I have just got the 2022 MG5 LR mk1, used 33,000 miles. Had the car 2 weeks now and really enjoying it as my 1st electric car. The only issue I am getting is the AC. To get any sort of heat I need to set it to 27c to max, even then air flow is pitiful. If I set it lower it just blows cold air...

    Weird noise

    My MG5 has started making a strange pulsating droning noise from about 35 mph upwards but seems to disappear at around 70 mph. The MG garage suggested I needed a new set of tires but that has made no difference. I’ve had the wheels tracked the noise still there? Has anybody else experience this...
