    OVMS module and MG dealers?

    I have an OVMS module that I occasionally use to check the SOC remotely. (I also used it on a long journey to feed ABRP with live SOC info) Wondering if it's advisable to remove it before taking the car into the dealer for servicing. Given polling with the car locked tends to set off the...

    Drivers Seat "Leather" Failure

    Hi Guys, The driver seat on my MG5 LR (2022 not facelift) has started to crack (the material) anyone else had this and successfully got MG to replace it? (the seat) My local dealer is saying as the upholstery warranty is only 12 months I'm out of luck. Got to be honest after forking out £26k...

    OBD readers

    Has anybody found an OBD reader and an accompanying app suitable for MG5s? As well as reading general faults, I'd be interested in interrogating the battery state, in a similar way to Leaf-Spy. The ones I've investigated don't inspire confidence.

    Anyone else getting dcdc charge fault & more errors leading to MG5 breakdown?

    I’ve been getting repeated breakdowns in my MG5 pre face lift LR. I get “dcdc charge fault” followed by “auto hold fault” and then “high voltage battery disconnect” at which point the car stops. Dealer had the car for 12 weeks and saw the fault but couldn’t fix it. Got it back 2 weeks ago and...

    Intelligent Octopus Charging Issue

    Peeps, A lot of this might just be coincidence but pretty much every weekend if I put the car on to charge it will not complete the charge and instead I’ll end up with something like 10-20% added instead of the 40 or 50% that I’m wanting to add via my Ohme charger?? I don’t have this issue...

    Rear bumper protector

    Not being able to source a polished stainless steel rear bumper protector for my wife's MG5 to prevent scratches when the dog jumps in, I bought this simple rubber one from Amazon to do the job in the interim. At £9.99 it was excellent value, easy to fit if you take your time and looks the part...

    Smart features and sensors

    I'm in the market for an MG5. I've noticed a lot of people don't seem to know whether their car includes various 'smart' features, such as MG pilot. Some 2021 models only have a small elongated sensor immediately below the rear licence plate. Some 2022 models have that sensor and a visible...

    Infotainment/Car System Menu

    Hi, I am new to this forum and am looking for help for my 2023 MG5. Is there a way to get into some kind of "hidden menu" on the infotainment screen? On the pre-facelift models you had to touch clockwise or anti-clockwise into the corners of the screen to get there. Does this work on the large...

    Should a MG5 Long range be changed 100%

    Should a MG5 Long range be changed 100% since on some forums I see that NMC (Discover MG5 Electric) batteries unlike LFP should not be charged 100%. Mainly the issue is that MG 5 software does not have an option to stop automatically at 80% if one wishes to do so, this comparatively is a an easy...

    Unsure

    Recently I've bought a new mg5 ev long range due to my old car not conforming to Ulez. The car is lovely driving and extremely roomy and comfortable. I'm still a bit unsure of long journeys with the amount of power, but I'm sure I will get used to it. The thing that is worrying me to the point...

    MG5 my experience after 4 months

    This is my first post on the site, but I have been an avid reader of the forum since I joined which was prior to me buying my MG 5. The information from the forum has been invaluable to me both before and after purchase. I have now owned my car for 4 months and covered 3000 miles and thought I...

    eCall System Fault

    I've had the "eCall System Fault" pop up randomly on my MG5 over over the last couple of weeks . The car seems to be driving normally and I've had no bumps ( other than the obligatory potholes on UK roads) . Any cause for concern ? Should I contact the dealer ? Or will they just fob me off ? ...

    Demister

    Hi all. Just registered as I have a question. I have been driving an MG5 for over 2 years and loved it. The one thing that spoils the experience is having to demist the windscreen over and over again when driving after any rainfall. Is this a common experience amongst other drivers and is there...

    Servicing

    Do I wait for the car to tell me the service is required, or is there a max interval to keep the warranty going? My MG5 is coming up to two years in December, and I've had it 6 months

    Problems disconnecting the Zappi 2 Charger from my MG5 2021.

    Hi All. I connected my MG up to my home charger last Thursday night and it started to fast charge as this is the last mode I used on the app. I then switched it to charge on a schedule without cancelling the charge. When I went open the car on Saturday morning the car didn't respond to the...
