MG ZS EV Rubbish

I guess it's somewhere in-between, if you use ODB2 and don't mess up anything, all good.... if you use it and mess up something fairly biggish, they would surely charge you to fix it and I'm sure that could invalidate your warranty

But, deny all knowledge of it, they couldn't prove you had been connected to the ODBII socket, they would have quite a problem. The socket is provided as a legal requirement of maintenance and fault finding etc, if they leave some deeper technical settings open to access, that's their problem IMHO.

OBD2 telematic devices are also mandated by insurance companies in certain circumstances.

They only pick up power and listen to data though.

Correct, but the contention was about using the socket
