    Home Zappie charger keeps stopping before fully charged

    My MG5 LR is now 16 months old and up to now has always charged to 100%. Over the last few charges it has been stopping at random percentages and I can not work out why this happens. Anyone any ideas?

    Dead key fob

    Peeps, Having issues with a key fob that’s no longer recognised by my facelift MG5. I’ve replaced the battery but still no go and the car is booked in to a garage to sort (but that’s 3 weeks away). So any tips or tricks you know about that I could try to see if the fob will come back to the...

    Car wash

    Probably a silly question but is the 5 ok in an automated car wash given it has those roof bars (and I guess possibly the charge door could become unlatched by the brushes pressing against it?)

    MG5 FL replace rear interior bulb.

    Has anyone managed to replace the rear interior bulbs on the MG5 face lift? I've replaced the fronts with led bulbs and it makes a big difference. I can't work out how to remove the cover on the rears. I don't want to break anything while prising the covers off.

    Not Strictly MG5 ...Anyone Had to Have House Supply Unlooped?

    Having just acquired our EV I have been trying to arrange for a home charger to be fitted. We appear to have a 50amp house supply fuse on a looped supply. Our installer has advised that they have had to contact the DNO to request the supply to be unlooped. Has anyone had to have that done? Any...

    MG5 Jumpstarting/Jumpstarter??

    My sons Toyota Hybrid died with a dead "8volt" battery { 8volt LOL }. I had a feeling EV`s weren`t supposed to deal in Jumpstarts, so we used Grandaughters MG ZS Petrol for Jumping { successfully }. Prompted me to check it out. According to the manual, it`s OK to receive a Jumpstart to the 12v...

    Owner's Manual

    Is there an owner's manual in hard copy for the Facelift 2023 MG5 Trophy LR? I know it's on the Infotainment screen and also accessible via i-Smart app on my phone but I would prefer a book to look through.

    OK - I accept that it's a bit buggy in places, but about a week ago it wouldn't recognise the car. Happened two or three times, so I decided to try again in the morning. It still failed. I then opened/closed the car using the remote key, and the software worked fine again. A couple of days ago...
