Had my ZS in December and straight away it had an intermittent creak when the sunroof was open. Both A-pillar trims also rattled and the dealer dismissed the sunroof creak out of hand saying it was the A-pillars.
The A-pillar trims were replaced which sorted that rattle, but then I noticed that the dash seems to squeak where it meets the windscreen.
The sunroof creak became more and more prevalent to the point I can't drive with it open because it's so loud and irritating.
Took the car in today and they said that MG have told them to book the car in for a week and they have to drop the headlining. Apparently they think it potentially may be missing a bolt but they need to strip the entire roof to find the issue.
They dismissed the dashboard squeak and instead think it's from the passenger door card which they need to take apart. I know that it's the dash and not the door - it sounds like rubber against glass and is coming from the middle of the dash. Time will tell. They dismissed the sunroof out of hand and yet here I am having to have the entire roof dismantled ??
On another note, I had the new Citroen C4 as a courtesy car and I was glad to get my ZS back. A lot has been made of the C4's hydraulic bump stops on the suspension and the comfortable seats, but I didn't find it anymore accomplished than the ZS. To say it's such a new car it's surprising how laggy the infotainment was, I expect it from a cheap car like the MG but not a brand new Citroen. I genuinely wouldn't swap. The only thing I'd take from the C4 is the head up display which I also had in my DS3 CROSSBACK.
