rear

In automotive design, an RR, or rear-engine, rear-wheel-drive layout places both the engine and drive wheels at the rear of the vehicle. In contrast to the RMR layout, the center of mass of the engine is between the rear axle and the rear bumper. Although very common in transit buses and coaches due to the elimination of the drive shaft with low-floor buses, this layout has become increasingly rare in passenger cars.

    Rear Seat Back Pops Out!

    Folded the rear seat from the boot (to show a petrol head) and there was a box on the rear seat, when the seat reached this it just effortlessly popped out at the hinge. Is this normal?

    Rear sidelights

    I was driving down the motorway in my MG4 Trophy and other cars kept flashing me. When I stopped I looked at the rear and noticed that my side lights were not on and only came on when I had the lights on full at the front. Is that supposed to be the case?

    "Boing" noise from left rear suspension when turning into a driveway

    I have a Phase 2 Excite 51 (SR) RHD (Australia) and I've noticed that on rare occasions, when I'm turning left over a bump (for example, left turning into a shopping centre car park), there's quite a loud "boing" noise from the back left of the car. It's a pretty comical sounding noise. If...

    Rear seatbelt sockets

    Does anyone else find it awkward how the rear seatbelt sockets sink into the hole in the upholstery? It makes it really fiddly fastening my daughter in (she's in a booster seat). I've sort of helped by wrapping bubble-wrap around it, to keep it pushed out of the hole. But it's still not great...

    Recommendation for rear of MG4 cupholder hack

    Hi, We've had the MG4 LR Trophy now since September. Our first electric car and it's been a great purchase. Just wish I'd bought one earlier! However, one annoyance is a lack of cupholder in the back. Has anybody found a good, reasonably priced accessory that works well? Thanks!

    Rear wiper doesn't work when reverse gear is selected.

    Seems an odd design decision. It works fine in reverse if you turn it on before selecting the R gear, but if you select the gear first it doesn't. Is this normal?
