Mine does it too. The brakes rarely get much use, unless you drive it and stop it hard. So they will build up with surface rust. A prolonged 'emergency' stop at 80% braking should cure it, every once in a while.

Had a few of the issues you mention OP, had my Trophy LR for 14 months, 10k miles. Mostly local journeys - 80% under 40 mph, 20% 40-70mph. Front Collision Assist is the main reason my leasing company have authorised me to return the car. Which I will be doing ASAP. The cars 'brain' is around a...

I second this, had a P38 range rover 2.5d for a while and it was an joy to drive. Though it was in the garage more than on the road due to an unscrupulous previous owner bodging everything. I love the MG4 though, only complaint would be more boot space, but I am used to large SUVs

It's not just signal boosters to worry about, it's signal decrypters/cloning tools and signal spoofers. Seen CCTV videos of 100k cars getting stolen by one man with an iPad/laptop and a signal receiver. It's pretty scary stuff. Especially since most new cars above even a fairly low price...

May I introduce you to @Rolfe , she has a detailed comprehension of the SE and it's 'quirks', and even some workarounds.

Is this the norm? Or was it a particularly bad winter? 2010 etc.

Winter tyres are definitely advised in winter in Norway, as is carrying chains, so much so that it's the law. 4wd does make a nice difference on top of these things though. More drive wheels = more control. Us in the north - England/Scotland will generally get by with winter tyres and maybe...

No, it doesn't - the UK spec doesn't anyway can't say for certain about other places.

Not being able to turn the Auto-lock off I'd say is definitely a bug in the SE, as you say - why have the feature at all - if it's down to cost it would be cheaper without it. The lack of memory function (folder playlists) and usability for the USB music source, is a bug across all specs, but...

Just FYI on my Trophy R24, the radio/usb music does start as soon as the drivers door is opened and driver sits down - as long as you didn't pause it before leaving the car last. So it does remember this. The fact it doesn't remember on the SE though, is still a bug I'd say.

I've seldom seen Tesla's (for example) doing more than the limit.. and some of them are rockets as we know. Why would it be different with the 4wd MG4? Now white vans on the other hand, they must be the fastest thing on the road, because no matter what speed you're going, there always seems to...

I've translated it to English to help others ? edit Ian beat me by 10 seconds ? "I'm from Shanghai and I got the AWD version of my MG4 (MULAN) last week. The prices are unbelievable and there are a few things I can share. 1. The brake calipers are the same as the rear drive version, the orange...

The difference in price between chargers is mental, even some offering the same speed charger from free to 30p/kWh then others charging 69p for the same kWh and same speeds. If a petrol station was charging more than double, people definitely wouldn't use it and it would either go under or...

No I totally agree, it shouldn't drain it - I was just reminding yourself and others for future reference - every time you lock/unlock/connect via app/Ready - it consumes 12v battery. So a 12 battery that hasn't had a chance to charge back up, and is running at a low SOC, will only get lower...

He's not very well liked among .. well anyone I can think of. And I can see why, he doesn't help the stigma attached to being a cyclist one bit.
