    I have owned my 22 MG5 EV for about 18 months. I have a Zappi 2 and Octopus Intelligent Go, and charge overnight on a smart schedule. Up until a few weeks ago, everything worked fine, then I started finding the car had only partially charged overnight. On checking the Zappi, I realised that it...

    Cheap £1.69 Fix for Missing MG5 Charge‑Port Locking Pin

    I thought I’d share this in case it helps anyone else. My recently purchased MG5 Trophy arrived without the locking pin on the charge‑port cover. When I mentioned it during a service visit, MG quoted £180 to replace the entire cover assembly, even though the only thing missing was the small...

    Rear wiper replacement on a pre-FL MG5 Has anyone got tips on replacing the rear wiper blade on their car? None of the usual wiper blade places suggest a part number, so I measured carefully and picked up a Bosch H 250 rear wiper, which matches the size and support arrangements on the car...

    Where to source rear shock absorbers from?

    Hi everyone, My 22 reg LR has just hit 80k miles, and my rear shock absorbers have given up the ghost. A friend of mine has offered to fit them, but he's been unable to get ahold of any. Has anyone on here done the same job? And if so, where did you source the parts from? Many thanks in...

    Back to a 5 and all is good

    Well I must have gone through a chunk of the SAIC MG catalogue, Mk1 3, GS, ZS mk2, 5SE, 4XP and S5 Trophy. All have been outstanding in their field regarding value, reliability, driving experience all-in and electrically at least super economical. To top all that off the residuals were better...

    Audio keeps going - random wish

    Relatively new to the MG5. I'm getting used to the no start/stop button, but as we know the infotainment system keeps going until the car is locked. Given that so much is just software, I do wish there were a setting available to effectively turn the infotainment off if it's in park and the...

    In my MGS5 EV the driver assist regarding inattention sounds when driving in bright sunlight. It picks up speed as you continue driving until the three notes run into each other.

    I have an MG5 EV LR Luxury which I bought in January 2024 to replace my 1st generation Exclusive bought in 2021.

    Very poor range

    I've read most of the posts that I can find on the forum but nothing seems to be this bad! The monthly snapshot range post is very helpful but currently looks like very wishful thinking for my recently purchased MG5 LR pre facelift 72 plate. After a full recharge on the Granny charger, it has...

    MG3 key as a replacement

    My car only came with one key. It's the flip blade key, a bit like my VW key. I bought a second hand MG3 key that looked identical to my old ZS EV key because I hadn't actually got the car at that point and hadn't seen the correct key. MG say they will program the new key and remove the...
