Cracks in rear light plastic - internal

[DevonMG4]

That's useful for SE owners, thanks.

Don't forget though that the Trophy has a different rear, with the huge light bar and camera assembly. Not sure if this is why it is supposedly more work to remove?

The spoiler is the same size on Trophy and SE it's just that the Trophy has the disco lights built in and the camera simply hangs out underneath the same as the SE aftermarket example. They are the same fitting points for both, just two more cables to unclip on the Trophy.

But it doesn't matter what the book time is as you are not paying

My original comment, I suppose, was that 1.75 hrs is generous and the task is extremely simple. A tech who had seen it before could do it and test it in 20-25 mins.

Good luck with the replacement.

MG4 parts seem much more available than they were two years ago.

I have 2 cracks in mine. It's a 23 plate. Do I take it back to the mg dealer i bought it from. Mine is second hand and the cracks was there when we bought. We did mention it to them but they said all was ok. Is this under warranty so can be replaced.

I don't really understand how your supplying dealer can say cracks are Ok... it is a bit like saying "don't worry about the obvious subsidence at the back of the house, it's ok". Were they claiming they weren't there or not serious or what?

It should be covered under warranty at any MG dealer, it doesn't need to be where you bought it from.

Do you have a picture you can post here? There are some join lines that can look like cracks.

It will probably depend on how obvious the cracks are. I would definitely take pictures, take them in and discuss with the dealer.

Not sure what MGs criteria for cracks are but certainly some people have had them replaced.
