    Engineering Mode MG5 FL

    Hi In case it’s not commonly known (got this from a thread on a German forum), it works but apart from being able to do various updates (if one has the files on a USB stick) this ‘secret’ menu doesn’t seem to be all that useful? Open phone, select keypad and enter ##4479#*

    Hi all, looking for some help! I have a 2021 MG5 EV and have a podpoint installed at my property.

  4. I bought a car

    Good day, motorists. I just put a deposit on a 2021 MG5 61kWh. It's costing much more than I've ever paid for a diseasel but it's the right thing to do. Ex demo from an MG dealer, never been charged at more than 7kW, still has 5 1/2 years warranty. I'm a bit nervous about having spent all my...

    How do actually remove the 12V Battery.

    How do you actually remove the 12 battery? I have dead 12v battery on my MG5. I thought it would be a simple job to take it out and charge it but it seems to be held in by some framework that needs disassembly first. Am I missing anything obvious? Going to France tomorrow so in a bit of a panic!

  9. Water problem in the parking brake switch

    We had a spill inside the car and got water in the Parking brake switch. The car is drivable but slams on the brake when almost stationary as it can't register the switch condition. Anyone advise as to how to remove the switch to dry it or replace it if necessary?

    Afternoon peeps, anyone had experience of lowering kits for the 5? VHS Handling Solutions list a kit that lowers 25mm, developed by themselves. At £250 +VAT sounds to be OK. I know they have extensive experience of MGR and MGUK products. https://www.vehiclehandlingsolutions.com/products/...

  13. Vehicle to load

    Hi, going camping in Northumberland in July and it’s a non electric pitch. I only really need power to pump air beds up and have read about MGs having a V2L feature. How much does the adapter cost and how much would it drain the battery?

  16. BP Pulse home charger

    Hi, had charger installed a couple of days ago and the installer said that after 4pm the update would be complete and I’d be able to link it to the app - which is a web portal as BP apparently got rid of the app. So I went on the web portal and registered and now when I log on to try and link...
