MG4 Software Update Thread

[Diggsy]

I tried R59 and then R63 for a few months. It took a bit of tweaking to get everything working—maps and weather included. (You can look back on this threads around pages 210/230)

But in the end, I reverted to the stock software, as I found out I was not using the integrated navigation that much.

Do you recall when using this if it displayed the song being played in the drivers screen, like the Trophy model does?

No, the firmware controlling the driver’s display is the IPK (instrument pack), so updating the FICM (the infotainment system) will not change what is shown on the IPK.

Hello! I have an MG4 Luxury purchased in July 2024, it has the R30 version. Which current version do I get?

What's the problem with the car?

In principle, there's no problem. Sometimes, perhaps, the phone's Bluetooth doesn't sync, and you have to erase the device and search again. The problem is that at my shop, I know they updated the modules, but the infotainment system is on that version, and I don't know if that could be the problem.

Well, just mention to your dealer that the bluetooth connection sometimes disconnects and they should update that particular related module and nothing else. No point in chasing higher 'numbers' if your car is basically fault free.

I believe the bluetooth issues are addressed by the infotainment updates mainly, not other core modules.

The infotainment system is easy to update yourself, many including me have updated their own.

That's a crazy thing to ask there are risks in everything you do in life, follow the PDF instructions exactly and you should be okay, the procedure is quite straightforward, if you are not confident you can follow the instructions then don't do it.

What's the full version number? The key bit is the numbers after SWI ... these will tell us the base software version for your car. (The Rxx bit can be misleading as it exists in both base versions but they are very different).

Current versions are
SWI68-29958-1300R67
and
SWI69-29958-1100R40

If your car is a luxury (aka trophy in the UK) model, it’s R67

Guys with SWI68-29958-1300R67, could you please take a look and answer whether this version has Ukrainian language support for UI in Infotainment?

Correct ... but @malolo666's car may be a MY24 car, so SWI131 or SWI132. Hence my request for the full model number.
