TPMS knows which wheels are at the front & theoretically which is left and which is right but what about the rear wheels?
Rear wheels travel at different speeds around bends and corners and the car knows when it is going left or right (it has accelerometers) so can determine which wheel is tracking the inside vs outside of the turn/curve.
 
I asked them to so I hope so. The pressures were all over the place when I picked the car up so I'll check today & drop the pressure on one tyre, go for a drive & see what happens. Based on their performance I am not hopeful.

Once I get this sorted out I will not be going back. Lismore is the closest MG dealer and they are a lot smaller and don't have several other brands to look after. It is a 240km round trip to GKing & 180km to Lismore MG.

From where I'm sitting I'm just getting the giggles at the idea of there being a car dealership of any sort in Lismore.
 
It is 2 weeks since I had my 2 year 40km service & I finally got a response from Geoff King about software updates. They now say MG has advised that no software updates are to be done at a regular service interval. When I booked my MG4 in "ALL SOFTWARE UPDATES" was specified in the detailed service items list and it seems others have had the updates done.

Below is what they have now told me.

"We are not permitted by MG to carry out software updates during a service unless there is a specific symptom or issue with the vehicle, not just when a request is made to do so. Please see the below bulletin from MG:"

Software updates should only be performed when required for a specific symptom or issue as outlined in the relevant technical document. It is no longer necessary to perform all available software updates every time a vehicle is presented to service. Instead, software updates will be applied selectively based on the issue the vehicle is experiencing and the corresponding technical guidance (generally in the form of a Technical Bulletin or Campaign).

This is pretty poor and after the fact when I booked the car in.
