Car now booked in and courtesy car being provided by MG and not the dealer. Dealer a but surprised at this as well but they advise that MG themselves have instructed car be taken off the road and infotainment unit removed and returned for examination. All seems a bit excessive but no choice really as it affects guarantee.
Don't accept. Its stupid. It cause because they didn't updated all the modules to recent softwares. The version of the infotainment and the rest of the modules not much. The infotainment have new software and the rest of the systems have old software.
You mean AC is not one of the options for the right side button?
No I mean it doesn’t work when assigned to the left star, works fine on the right though.
Aah.. Although you are correct that it should work on the left side as well, is AC on the right side a workaround for you?
When you have AC on the left star, I suspect you still need to use the right joystick to change temperature/fan speed.
No, R40 is not a very old software version. I believe the most recent valid version is R46, which as you can see in this thread is not 100% successful. The previous version for Trophies was R40, which is what we have on ours. No problems at all with it so far for us. I would expect you should be fine. I think R59 made a very brief appearance, but it seems to have now been pulled. There’s a lot of chatter around all the versions.
I think it's weird because my Trophy doesn't have this bug.
Maybe they did not do all updates properly on Surfdog's car. Or there is a difference in hardware.
How do I get to my software version screen please? Then I will happily do it
This is correct - I have mine set up this way and thought it wasn't working, but when you press the left star button a graphic comes up showing a steering wheel with what the joystick positions do to the AC, and the graphic is of the right hand joystick - and using the RH joystick does indeed adjust the AC once you've pressed the left hand star button.When you have AC on the left star, I suspect you still need to use the right joystick to change temperature/fan speed.
If that's first service, it's quite pricey - I paid £62 at Drive MG North Bristol for first service on my SE LR. That said, although they updated infotainment (which I was very pleased about), they may not have updated all the hidden system software as my ACC joystick function still shifts in 5mph steps rather than 1mph.
