    I've got first year service on Monday for facelift 5. Garage called up to confirm appointment this morning and mentioned they would be sorting the recall too. I asked what that was as wasn't aware there was one and they didn't seem to sure but assumed it was a software update. Anyone know anything?

    Anyone tried the V4 Superchargers in Tottenham?

    I see that Tesla have opened their first V4 superchargers and these are designed to work with any CCS car…I wondered if that includes the humble MG5? I know they are blocked from other Superchargers for being too slow to respond!

    Windshield fogging

    Has anyone experienced the MG5 to be especially prone to windshield fogging? I already stored a de-humidifier in the boot and try to use external air as much as possible. The letter improved the situation a bit. But still there is an excessive amount of humidity coming from somewhere.

    Forward Collision System Unavailable

    Has anyone experienced the same issue? The forward collision system and emergency braking system are both unavailable and don’t want to turn back on. The problem came on suddenly mid drive - it had been working earlier during the drive. Any known faults or causes?

    MG5 Dummy Handler!

    Just thought this might be of interest when I closed the rear boot/door & felt like a dummy! I'd locked the car then went back to load up with (my son's) garden rubbish. I then put my jacket on top and closed the boot door. It immediately unlocked? Thinking I'd left something over the lip I...

    Charging speed

    My MG5 LR is only charging at 3kW instead of 7kW from my wall charger. It is as slow as the 13 amp granny charger. Wall charging is set to 32 amp. Any ideas anyone what wrong or where is the fault. I expect car to charge to 80% in about 8 hrs but it’s taking about 16/18 hrs.
