I'm just a little bit curious about the cooling System of the MG4.
First of all I don't have any issue with the cooling or any limited power or whatsoever.

I was just wondering every time when the MG4 is on, and I open the front I have never ever seen any moving inside of the two pink coolant tanks. Is this normal?
I do have an old Ioniq 28 in which the coolant Pump (which is only for EPCU, ICCU & Motor) is always running.

As I said I had never trouble with any heat, but i was just wondering if the system does work at all :).
I have never opened the front when DC Charging was used, what barely never happens at all, only slow charging at home (11kw / 3 Phase)

Sorry if this has be answered before, was just beeping curious.
 
I have the same 11kwh 3 phase charger and , depending on the outside temperature you can hear the pumps running intermittently when charging, lifting the bonnet and the front coolant tank can warm up and condensation can be seen on its inside "roof" especially at the end of the charge. I do not check it that often as its set to start after midnight. But yes it works .... very well, lets hope that comment has not jinxed it ? o_O
 
So I checked during the slow charge today and yes indeed there is minimal flow in the system. Our MGs do at least have two Water pumps, could be more. These two are near the coolant tanks. During charging only one pump is active and it seems regulated in speed. The other Pump is connected to a heat exchanger from the HVAC System which is off during slow charge. So it seems like all is good, I was just curious.
