parking

Parking is the act of stopping and disengaging a vehicle and leaving it unoccupied. Parking on one or both sides of a road is often permitted, though sometimes with restrictions. Some buildings have parking facilities for use of the buildings' users. Countries and local governments have rules for design and use of parking spaces.
Car parking is essential to car-based travel. Cars are typically stationary around 95 per cent of the time. The availability and price of car parking supports and subsidize car dependency. Car parking uses up a lot of urban land, especially in North America - as much as half in many North American city centers.

    Parking sensor woes

    I have been having a problem whereby when I start the car and begin to manoevre it announces that there is "AVM System Failure" and I also receive a message on the app that says "The Park Distance Control Status of your vehicle is abnormal". What all this means in plain English is that the car...

    Mud wrestling

    So... today I parked on a patch of wet grass (there's no other type at this time of year) with a very slight decline (about 2-3%) in the car park of a stately home. When I tried to leave I put the car into reverse, put gentle pressure on the accelerator and nothing happened. The wheels just spun...

    Plastic at the front

    Has anybody scratched the plastic at the front of the car while parking? Unfortunately the pavement was higher than usual and I think MG should add an alarm just like the rear parking system. Can I suggest this to the company? How?

    Front parking sensors

    Hi I have an MG4 Trophy. The rear parking sensors beep away when parking - and the 360 camera seems to work, but I don’t get any beeps / warnings from the front sensors. Is there a setting I’ve missed?

    Can you turn off headlights while parked ?

    I pick up grandchildren from some night time sports events and can’t figure out how to kill the headlights while in parking mode awaiting their exit from sports hall. Is it possible??

    How to Leave my MG4 parked but movable?

    Here in Thailand almost every covered car park allows parking at 90 degrees to the marked parking bays, but vehicles must be left in neutral with the handbrake off so the attendants can push them to allow access to the blocked areas. So far I've managed to avoid using these spaces with my MG4...

    Having had the car for 2 years and a ZS EV before that for a year I had never used the parking brake switch on either car until this last weekend. :) I had always found the footbrake, Autohold and Park to cover all my needs for holding the car when stopped. However for some reason sat at lights...
