    Charging port cover not closing

    Hi Folks, has anyone else had the following problem and found a solution to it? The charging port is not closing on my 2021 MG5 (ie the flap does not 'click' shut). The pin that appears to have the lock mechanism does not reliably spring out and turn, so I'm assuming that is the problem. I've...

    Tailgate - black plastic bar?

    Hi all, Nothing urgent….just a curiosity question. Anybody know what the black plastic bar (immediately below the number plate) is? Does it have a sensor in there? Can’t figure what it’s purpose is if it hasn’t.🤔

    taller tyres on MG5?

    Has anyone tried taller tyres on the MG5? I have a FL. I was wondering about putting all seasons, in a slightly bigger size, perhaps 215/60/r17, 215/55/r17, or even 225/55/r17. The aim would be to improve comfort, and to fill up the arches a little more. The current wheel tyre combo looks a...

    CD USB

    i have just been searching the www for "retrofit CD USB players". They are well-received by those who still want in-car CD music. However, when checking a model's compatibility, MG either comes as not listed or not compatible. Has anyone found a system that will work on an MG5 LR pre-facelift...

    Better alternative to miles/kWh?

    Why not display miles travelled per battery % used (M/%U) rather than M/kWh? Then the remaining range displayed can be a calculation of M/%U x remaing_battery_% (M/%R) ? Much simpler and in my experience, accurate. Thoughts?

    Another infrastructure rant!

    So I took the missus down to the South West of Scotland for a short break this week. There were a few places she wanted to visit down that way including a gem museum. So off we popped with a full charge in my LR taking the scenic route through the Galloway Forrest. It was beautiful. I had no...

    MG Basildon have seen my car and heard the noise and believe it to be the reduction gears. I bought the car new from them and it has just had its 3rd service with them. A week ago they informed MG about the problem but have not received any communication from MG about the next move which I...
