    Making hands free phone calls

    5 Trophy - can you make bluetooth hands free phone calls via the "phone" button on the steering wheel? The owners manual is next to useless in explaining this and many other things lol.

    System Fault 12V battery low and car doesn't start

    Hi there, New to the forums (just joined)! My dad's 72 reg MG5 pre facelift no longer turns on and I suspect that he left the heating on for too long whilst on the 12V battery. He had put the car to charge at the supermarket and all I know is that the car was at roughly 40 percent (don't know...

    Relay Click at low speed?

    Does anyone else often hear what sounds like a relay switching somewhere in or near the drivers door when either stopped or at low speed? MG5 Exclusive LR.

    Recovered to dealer - System fault.

    I've been seeing slower charging on Rapid chargers this last few weeks. I put it down to the freezing weather (and it possibly is partly) but today I had a rapid charger error out on me, one that normally works fine. I put it down to a fault on the charger and went on my way, I was localish and...

    New Car Day!

    Today was new car day! Our MG5 Trophy was delayed getting to the dealer — but they gave us their demonstrator to make sure we had a car over the holiday, and we had it for nearly four weeks. The only difference between the demonstrator and ours is the colour (theirs was a yucky black with...

    MG5 EV Equalisation

    Hi all, I am attempting to do a battery equalization on my MG5EV as my range at 100% has dropped from 274miles to 205 miles. However, after I leave it for a few hours once it has reached 100% i see no improvement and the charge state shows 'not charging'. Is there a way to see if it is doing...

    Scraping noise from front tyres

    Got a loan 5 while my 4 is in the dealer (again). It’s new, but the old model. Noticed a scraping noise from the front tyres/wheels when halfway between straight and full lock. Forward or reverse. I’m not reporting it, not my car and not my problem, just curious as to what it would be. It’s got...

    Battery isolation - post accident

    Hello I have a MG5, I am also looking to buy an accident damaged MG5 to use as donor parts to convert a classic car. The question is I assume post accident some battery disconnect would have happened, where is this? I would like to check the accident damaged car before complete dismantelling...

    Press Brake to start Fault.

    Hi Everyone, My MG5 won't start anymore. I get the error "Press Brake to start" It does start the instruments and radio, and the battery is 76%. I book it for service but I can't wait 2 weeks. Is it difficult to fix? Can I fix it myself? Is it just a faulty sensor on the brake pedal? Thanks for...

    MG5 2021 REAR SUSPENSION NOISE

    Some while ago I noticed a knock coming from the rear offside when driving away from cold. After a mile or so it disappeared. Recently it seems to be getting worse. Reported it at 10,000 mile service, told it was just the rear brakes releasing! not covinced. Done another 8,000 miles-still...

    MG5 Trophy radio keeps swapping to media

    I've had my MG5 Trophy for a week and a half and generally it's been fine, none of the charging issues I've seen mentioned elsewhere on this forum but when I'm listening to the radio it automatically switches to media if I receive a notification on my Bluetooth connected phone. This has never...

    EV savings over petrol/diesel

    We've just completed our first year in 5LR at 20k with home charging (Ohme Pro with Bulb EV) showing £759 plus guesstimate rapid charging of about £100. This distance in our old diesel would have been about £3k at 50mpg and £1.60/l. This makes for about £2k saving on fuel.

    2022 MG 5 Trophy not fast-charging

    Hi! I just bought the MG 5 Trophy and it charges fine at home with the 3 pin slow charger but not with the public fast chargers. I have tried 3 fast chargers at 2 locations from 3 providers and none worked. I even had a 30min call with gridserve that rebooted the chargers and manually tried...

    MG5 Drivers display gone

    Happily driving along and the driver’s display has suddenly gone, just some blurred lines. So no speedo (fortunately got the manual one), no way to see remaining charge or GOM, no way to check 12v charge, no way to verify mileage, no way to confirm lights on etc., nothing. Can hear indicators...
