MG3 Hybrid+ Wiki - Hints, Tips and Solutions

I'm guessing it must have a radar mounted behind the front grille.
That's how all ACC systems work, whilst a camera behind the windscreen would work the lane keep assist.
Having had semi autonomous functionality on my other car a Genesis Electrified G80 for getting on for two years, I find myself using the feature wherever possible as it takes a lot of the effort out of driving. Whilst the Genesis has what would be described as level 2.5 autonomy, so it includes auto lane change, and various self learning and navigation related features, which means on a motorway for example it has the ability to auto adjust according to posted speed limits as well as adjusting its position in a lane according to traffic around d the car, the system in the MG is more basic but still meets level 2, so this means it will still offer self steer and auto speed adjustment including stop/start in traffic. In fact the MG will self steer around sharper bends than my other car.
So as I said at the beginning of my 'long paragraph' I find I use the system in the MG as much as possible.
However I would mention the MG system is quite prone to 'phantom braking' thinking sometimes that you're going to drive into a car parked by the road.

The camera/radar is at the top of the windscreen on theMG3; the front grill camera is for parking only..

I got into the car yesterday afternoon and it would not go into gear, the engine started but no matter what I did it was frozen in park, I tried for about 5 minutes.

I gave up and rang the dealer. I got the one with a brain and he said does it say ready on the screen, err no, he said to press the stop/start button and then press it again, and it worked then, but it seems sometimes it takes a while to be READY, not too keen on that at all, what's it waiting for?

You probably didn't press the brake to put the car in gear.
It can happen...

That's exactly what happens, I did it myself 2 days ago and like all IT stuff advice is "Switch off and on again" it works every time with my laptop and it's the go-to advice given by all IT helplines
