    Windscreen washer freezing

    I left my MG5 ev in freezing conditions at Glasgow Airport for two weeks. When I returned the screenwash was completely frozen. Because there is no heat from the engine we drove most of the 130 back to Aberdeen with no screen wash. Any advice? Ian Bennett

    Charge rate from type 2 connector only pulling 3.33kw

    Hi Everyone, First time on the forum and I did a search but nothing jumped out at me as answering this already. Just got a new MG5 and trying to charge it for the first time using type 2 connector at my office. The office chargers are able to provide 11kw and the other cars that are currently...

    Recommendations for home chargers

    I may be about to buy an MG5 but have no home charging. I always heard that Zappi were good, but does anyone have other recommendations? It will be a slightly non-standard install as I want the charger installed on the outside of our detached garage.

I took the small...

    calculating charging rate

    I am sure I have read this on here but cant find it. How do I calculate the rate that my car is charging? I am sure it looks at the battery size and voltage but cant recall how to calculate. Mine is a pre facelift long range?

    Chip in back bumper.

    I now have a chip/indentation in the edge of my back bumper of my MG5 (PFL) caused by a somewhat over eager dog trying to get into the boot before I'd opened it. (The dogs fine incase you were wondering). Wondering if it's worth even trying to do anything about it or to just leave it as I knew...

Initially I had a look at the MG4 and was impressed even if I had doubted it to be a true family car . But , frankly , it was too rich for my...

    Software Updates and Gearbox Oil at Service.

    Just talked to a dealer about Exclusive first service and asked whether they will update software. He said that as of the end of last year MG has told them not to update software unless there is a software fault. Should have bought a Tesla which updates itself online, well half a Tesla for the...

    DAB temporary Radio. I have a pre-facelift MG5 LR.

    My MG5 LR das a bodged DAB radio. I was told by the dealer this was a temporary item to be replaced by a recall. For anyone who hasn't seen this it uses the second USB port that connects to a module in the glove box and an Antenna fixed to the front windscreen. Has anyone who has this bodge had...

    Wheel bolt cap removal?

    Does anyone know how to remove the covers for the wheel bolts of a facelift trophy on 17” alloys? I thought these were the bolts themselves but they actually aren’t! Anyone know what size the bolts are?

    MG5 Facelift - how to do equalisation charging

    I've had my Mk2 MG5 for a month now. I have Go Tariff so have set it up so that every night it starts charging at 00:30 and set the max charge level to 80%. That's been working fine. (Charger is set to always on - the scheduling etc is set up on the car itself.) Last night I wanted to do...

    How brave do you feel?

    It’s obviously an ex Minicab, but the Stellantis dealer in West London has taken in an MG5 Exclusive at 2 years old with 70,000 miles on it. It’s up for just over £15k and I’m very tempted! Brave, stupid, or a bargain?
