I am new to the Mg5 getting it on 1st March. First ev and finding it great. However when I recently charged at a Tesco podpoint I was sitting in vehicle working and when it finished charging all the windows opened. I did not touch anything and it was switched off. On a separate occasion at home I had my keys in my pocket and noticed that my car unlocked and all the windows opened. Has this happened to anyone else? Have I done something wrong for it to happen? Do I have some sort of software issue? Also the speed sensor warning keeps turning itself on even though I disable it. Is this normal?
I know its a lot of questions but I feel I will get more sensible answers from owners rather than the dealership.
Thanks
 
You are accidentally pressing and holding the unlock button on the fob.
 
Yeah the long press is so you can open the windows remotely if the car is hot. Fairly common these days, as is accidentally sitting on the keys and making it work. Happened to me so often with the previous car, a couple of times with the car getting an interior soaking in rain when I hadn't noticed, that I stopped keeping the keys in my jeans pocket.

In fact now at home I have one of those Faraday pouches on top of the fridge so the key can't be cloned too. Seems to have worked so far :-)
