    Insurance Renewal

    I received notification from Direct Line that our MG5 insurance was due in September, the renewal cost was £363.27, last year we paid £284.77. Every year I end up calling them after a short search on the net to try and get a better price. I was shocked this year using compare the meerkat to get...

    Best dash cam position FL

    Finally got round to fitting my dash cam in the FL and looking for advice/tips on best place to mount the front camera. I’ve placed it to the side of the rear view mirror like I did in my PFL, this seems to be the best place to avoid blocking my view. But in the FL the housing behind the mirror...

    Need a few things checked/repaired

    Hi everyone, My MG 5 has been pretty good so far, but a couple of problems have recently come up: Firstly, it needed a jump start a few weeks ago: is this expected for a 2021 plate that's done 61,000 miles? Secondly, the driver's door was repaired after an accident, but it seems the garage...

    Pre facelift 5, Locking wheel nuts.

    Just to double-check but the pre facelift MG5 didn't ever come with locking wheel nuts as standard, did it? I don't recall ever seeing a locking wheel nut key/thing, and I got the car as a pre-reg a couple of years back, so I presume unless the dealer added them it won't have them. Otherwise I...

    Towbar on MG5 (again!)

    I know this has been discussed before but those threads are quite old so thought I'd start a new one... I'm about to get a MG 5 2022 pre facelift which I know isn't rated for towing. I'd like to install a towbar on it and I see there appear to be a few available from Brink and GMK now for 2020...

    Archived MG5 Full Size Spare Wheel & OEM Tyre (16")

    Sold my MG5 so I no longer require this. Never actually needed to use it in my four years of ownership but it was good insurance nonetheless. Having a full size spare means you can return immediately to unrestricted use following a puncture so is superior to a space saver. Have to admit that I...

    Can you fit a coffin in an MG5?

    So as the title really... And I thought the question might amuse folk. Backstory is that I'm a Kona owner but looking to swap to a MG5 soon as I've got some issues with the Kona and out of warranty. My wife is going on a course to make a willow coffin and she needs to transport it back! So...

    Accelerator pedal click

    I've drove a few electric cars and I don't think I've noticed this on any of them before. Is it normal that when you first set off and the handbrake is on you can feel the switch in the accelerator pedal? Usually feel it on the auto hold function as well. It's. FL mg5 long range if it makes a...

    Back brakes

    Hi all, I recently bought a second hand mg5 (roughly 3 years old) and I have zero knowledge of cars. The back brakes look rusty. Not the part where the brake pads are but a little in front of that. (See attached photo) Is this of a concern? Thanks!!

    Soundproofing strips for MG?

    Saw these soundproofing strips on Temu & wondered if anyone had tried them, I hear a fair bit of noise on motorways, I know it’s not the same as deadening material but it might help seal some of the wind noise, you have to be careful to not cover door drain holes but the rest looks...

    Split charging systems/dual battery...

    Morning all! So, for a number of reasons I would like to add a second 12V battery to my MG5 and wondered if anyone has done this already. My main question is whether the installation of a diode/MOSFET charge splitting unit (with associated voltage drop) would drive the 12V DC-DC converter to...
