    DAB antenna placement

    Hi, just collected my new MG 5 LR today and tried to select the DAB radio but touchscreen wouldn’t toggle to it.

    Satnav issue not solved by dealer

    I have a month old MG5 LR and am trying to personalise the satnav. My aim is to activate the audio and visual warnings for locations such as schools, hospitals etc. Although I have found my way through the settings menu, and then pressed 'close' the satnav refuses to co-operate. I spent a happy...

    The MG5 front radar block wires

    I was cleaning off yet more bee poo from my white MG5, and noticed the apparently fairly fine exposed wired going to the front radar unit. Has anyone assessed the cablings vulnerability from collecting or hitting debris, and if there is a better interface of the cabling into the radar than just...

    7 Year Warranty T&Cs

    Had the car 2 months and was looking through all the documentation to find the 7 year warranty terms and conditions. Nothing in what the dealer gave me. Found a paragraph in the handbook which said to look at mg.co.uk. Couldn't find anything there apart from sales pitch for new MG5LR. Rang the...

    95% Charge

    So been and charged the car to 95% and I'm showing miles of 206? Does this sound right? When I bought the car it was charged to 100% and showing a distance of 299 miles. Can 5% charge make that much difference or do I need to worry. Thanks in advance

    Clonk from transmission starting from rest, MG5

    At about 3000 miles from new, my MG5 has started to develop a clonking sound when the drive picks up from rest, particularly pronounced starting on a hill. Seems the warmer weather recently has eased it somewhat, but is definately getting worse, and even clonks on first brake pedal press now...

    First Drive

    I took the new car out for a spin tonight, just to take a look at the gridserve forecourt just beside Chelmsford race course, and a little potter about. I enjoyed the drive and found the ride really comfortable. I managed wheel spins when testing the acceleration on a straight stretch, so that...

    Recommendations for charger installers (particularly in Scotland)

    Does anyone want to share their experience getting a home charger installed? Who installed it? What kind of charger? Were you happy with the service? The product? I'm thinking (again) about getting one, but there does seem to a worrying diversity in the quality of the service provided.
