MG4 Undertray dip/bulge

Not a known issue? It was known more than 3.5 years ago ... I even had it on a checklist of known issues that I gave to my dealer before I'd even bought my car!

Surprised it's not a characteristic

Obviously trying it on. Hoping he'd go away. Which probably some would.

To be fair I think they meant not a known issue to them. First they had seen I think. My gut feeling is most people do not look under their car so do not even know if they have a problem.

The only reason I looked was because of this forum. I may have easily gone round not knowing otherwise. So thank you to this thread


The outcome was good as I say they found the bulletin and booked in for the work when the part arrives.

Shame I had to push a little but I find this with all dealers. Based on the outcome of this I will happily be using them for future services. My old dealer stops being MG.

Side note did look at the MGS5 they had some good deals on that but I could not justify spending £10k to switch to it.

The bracket is 11769392 BRACKET-UND DFL which is 23.00+VAT (next day from your local dealer) - you can buy the extra long bolts, but you have to buy a packet of 10 (£25 or so!!) - so just got some from toolstation on the way home - I think you need M6 x 30 (item 83910) - I got stainless ones and were £2.58 for 10 (I already had the penny washers)

It’s tends to become a “known” issue, after they have checked to see if they can get paid for it strangely enough .
Conducting warranty work never puts money into the till on the same day, unlike paid service work unfortunately.
It can be a long drawn out affair.
