    Water problem in the parking brake switch

    We had a spill inside the car and got water in the Parking brake switch. The car is drivable but slams on the brake when almost stationary as it can't register the switch condition. Anyone advise as to how to remove the switch to dry it or replace it if necessary?

    MG5 EV Lowering springs

    Afternoon peeps, anyone had experience of lowering kits for the 5? VHS Handling Solutions list a kit that lowers 25mm, developed by themselves. At £250 +VAT sounds to be OK. I know they have extensive experience of MGR and MGUK products. https://www.vehiclehandlingsolutions.com/products/...

    Vehicle to load

    Hi, going camping in Northumberland in July and it’s a non electric pitch. I only really need power to pump air beds up and have read about MGs having a V2L feature. How much does the adapter cost and how much would it drain the battery?

    MG 7yr warranty.... I am on my second MG5 ( FL Trophy LR ) and am very happy with it although I am unable to link to iSmart and I'm not sure why. My point is, why do so many owners of MG"s go on about having a 7yr warranty? Have they looked at all the items that are in the theoretical " 7yr...

    BP Pulse home charger

    Hi, had charger installed a couple of days ago and the installer said that after 4pm the update would be complete and I’d be able to link it to the app - which is a web portal as BP apparently got rid of the app. So I went on the web portal and registered and now when I log on to try and link...

    So for the past two nights, my OIG charge schedules have been kinda messed up. When I plug the car in it does the usual waiting for surplus thingy in Eco+ mode.

    FL Trophy - Radio stopped working.

    So I've had my FL Trophy since last January without problems but today I noticed that the radio isn't working. The controls seem OK but there is no sound (not even static on FM/AM). I've tried a reset of the infotainment system. I can still listen to stuff from my phone via Android Auto. Does...

    Should I replace my PR-FL excite with a new MG5 (probably SE)??

    My pre-facelift MG5 Excite SR is just coming up to 3 years old and my dealer is about to try to persuade me to change. The question is - should I? Can anyone tell me, succinctly, what are the benefits of the latest 5 over the original? I am particularly interested to know whether it can take...

    Just to briefly say I will be trading in my lovely MG5 pre-facelift Executive this week for different EV. I am getting a Hyundai Kona Ultimate, not brand new, the old shape just over a year old. The reason for this is not because I don't love my 5, I do, it's great and will probably be great...
