No the forward camera has never had any crud on it to trigger a system shutdown. Several owners on the Aus MG4 facebook page have reported the same problem so i am not alone.

As I mentioned it has occurred with others as well. I locked the car & left it for a while & also did what another owner did that fixed it for him & that was to drive the car turning the wheel lock to lock & then the same in reverse. No change but as soon as i got out on the road it fixed...

My car is booked in for software updates on 26th of November after the kerfuffle of it not being done when it went in for its first service. Over the past year I have had the car suddenly drop out of ACC when cruising at 110 kmh on the Pacific highway 4 or 5 times, and warnings come up that...

Word from MG Australia is that they are definitely working on OTA updates. Australian MG4: 2025 software update improvements - Electrifying Everything - by Neerav Bhatt

I have 5km increments with each press but it always increments to the next multiple of 5km. eg. If I am travelling at 110kmh & come to an 80 kmh speed sign, I slow down & hit the ACC button & it say reads 82kmh one press down & it goes to 80 kmh or 1 press up it goes to 85 kmh. Holding the...

The car just did it automatically.

I have just had approval for my new solar & battery installation. The installation company rang to say that essential Energy had charged $331.00 for the approval which will be added to my bill & they sent me the invoice. I never had any charge for the 2 previous solar installations. Basically...

Yes I had the service people rotate the tyres & for some reason they inflated all the tyres to around 280 kPa. I reduced the pressure on the front left to 250 kPa & drove in to town, a round trip of 10km. When I got back the pressure on the front left was now showing 250 kPa so the self learning...

Essential needs to look at increasing the export limit on TOU basis so during peak times increase it to 10kW or no limit at all. Then again that would need a smarter limiting device. If it isn't in their future plans, it should be.

I recently moved to a new property that has a 1kW 20 year old BP system so I am replacing it with a new system with 20 x 440 watt bi-facial panels (8.8kW), with a 10 kW hybrid inverter and a 18.64 kWh battery. Our average daily usage is 9-10 kWh so in theory II will never use grid power. The...

I am not sure when phase 2 cars build date began but the first imports to Australia were phase 2 & My Essence 64 (Trophy) was built in June 2023. The early phase 2 Excite 51 imported in to Australia did not have OPD but this was provided as a free software upgrade at the time.

Pity that it won't happen before mine goes in for all the original updates in late November.

My last car was a 2012 Mitsubishi Lancer Platinum. Very reliable but by 2023 a few cracks began to open. Bluetooth gave up & a couple of other electronics were on the way out & an idler bearing became noisy but about 240 km on the engine & CVT were still great. I spent over a year looking at...

I have specified both the Infotainment system (Route & charger Planner) & the ELK button on the quick drop down menu, AEB & LKA updates. SAIC made a rod for their own back. The initial design (Royal Academy of Arts) and Engineering (UK MG/SAIC team) did a great job & then let down with some...

Thanks for pointing out Neeravs blog @Kenno . I'd seen that a long time ago and forgotten about it. Anyway Geoff King have responded to my email & they are going to do the updates in November, I think reluctantly as they whinged about the cost to them. Anyway I pointed out that it was on the...
