    More charging fun times.

    Tried to charge at a CPS site, plugged into the rapid, took several attempts to get the car to charge but eventually did at an earth-shattering 26kW or so, went back to the car an hour later to move it onto one of the numerous AC posts so as not to hog the only rapid. Post authenticated the...

  2. HVAC

    Hi, Colder mornings are coming so I thought I’d have a try at preheating the car through the app but not sure I’m doing it correctly as it never seems warm when I open the door. I assume it’s the HVAC bit? I set that to 24 degrees and left it for ten mins and the car was still cold when I got...

    Mobility Scooter / Wheelchair hoist.

    Sorry if I am covering old ground here, but I spent quite a long time attempting to find out if and how an electric wheelchair hoist could be fitted into an MG5 of any type. The answer previously was always fairly negative, but I can now assure anybody interested that it can be done. I have...

    MG5 limiting charge to 1.5kW when using Zappi on sunny days…

    Does anyone know why my MG5 trophy (facelift) limits charge to 1.5 kW on sunny days? I’m guessing it is something to do with overheating somewhere along the lines, but surely this is ridiculous as that’s the whole point in solar panels, a home charger and charging a car… Is that it charges the...

    Rumbling sound - once per wheel turn

    In the last few months, a cyclic rumbling sound has developed. Each wheel rotation comes with a dull thud creating a rumbling sound worst at 20, 60 and 80 mph. No vibration, MG checked and say AOK. Drive train seems OK, discs look OK but when rusty you do hear a slight sound as they clear the...

    MG5 battery upgrades

    I know this forum is more people using their MG's, rather than taking them apart/rebuilding them, but here goes. I bought what was possibly at the time the cheapest whole MG5 cat N (damaged, non-structural) in Oct 2023, for £5400, and paid £500 for (almost) all the parts to repair the front end...

    Slower DC charging after software update

    Since a software update in Dec 2023 my pre-FL LR now charges at a noticeably slower rate than before. It's taken a while to evidence this as there are so many factors relating to charging speeds but recently, on three occasions, I've charged alongside identical model MG5s at multi charger...

    Seven Year Warranty - really?

    I've just been looking at the MG web pages relating to the warranty we get. It made me wish I'd seen it before buying my car - I'd probably have gone ahead, but I'd have been aware of the warranty's limitations. "In the unlikely event that something does go wrong with your MG, you have...
