    Have MG sorted out the MG4 yet?

    That did happen to my wife once but luckily nothing behind her.

    What else do you disable besides LKA?

    Have MG sorted out the MG4 yet?

    What exactly do you mean by 'sorted out' and undriveable? Are you on about the Lane Keeping Assist? I leave it on because it's less of a problem with updates but the wife always turns it off.

    MG4 Trophy What a car.

    All my bosses ended up coming from there after that. Back on track, we have quite a few staff at RSUH with MG4's but I cycle to work for the last 15 years :)

    After a few more days every time we charge Octopus will take our CHARGE To down to 40% or lower where we get a bad schedule, change it to 80% and a nice schedule comes back. I know you said they are stamping down on it but if they really want to do that why don't they just say 'Your car won't...

    Are you University Hospital of North Midlands? I'm at the RSUH, my big boss came from County.

    MG4 Trophy What a car.

    I've had many ICE cars since 1975 and 99% of the time the wife drives (I've been with her 51 years). Since having the MG4 a year ago I pick the keys up first. I have no idea what you're on about with the wiper blades though. I also have no idea why when turning a corner the camera comes on...

    Experimenting after making this thread I'll tell you something that isn't debatable for us. If I put the exact amount of charge I want and plug the car in I get a really bad schedule and a couple of times it's said "from 1am". If I put 80% on the App it will start from 8:30pm so we get cheap...

    Yes mine is always set to 80% but I was shocked when it was suddenly on 40% and I know for a fact it has happened to quite a few Octopus customers and some of them are long distance users so need to wake up to 100% but were waking up to eg 60%... My car never goes below 60% usually but was on...

    OK apologies. After testing, the ADD TO CHARGE is definitely how much charge you want to add on and not what I thought it was. eg If you're at 49% and you want to charge to 80% you can put it on 31% like I did last night however I'll just leave it on 80% as usual. So with my neighbours problem...

    Set it to 80% and the car charges to 80%. Set it to 40% and it won't charge because it may already be higher than that, ours is always higher around 60% so adding 40% charge should take it to 100% but those two times set to 40% it acted as though it was unplugged.. If it was to add 80% I'd...

    This is a heads up for anybody with the above gear but I also know it's happened with other cars and maybe other chargers used with Octopus. A month ago a neighbour with identical gear as us had a problem, his car wouldn't charge for 2 days and he had no schedule. It took quite a while of...
