    eCall Fault

    I had my first fault on my pre facelift model this morning. It flashed up a dash light - eCall fault or something similar. Presumably this is the SOS button. The button had a green flashing led light (usually it is, I think, a steady amber). Anyone know what might be happening?

    Carbon air filter for MG5?

    With my previous car, a VW Touran, when I took it for servicing, I was offered a choice between a "pollen filter" and a "active carbon filter".
