    Three Months In An S5

    It's a cheap vehicle made in China, trying (not too hard) to be a quality European car. Should we expect any thing else. Temu on wheels !

    Has anybody been watching the last series of TV programme Shetland🤔🙂

    Was the MG4 the same as the previous series? This series MG4 had a rear wiper..

    Lowest Declared Voltage Tolerance and Charging

    I've not experience this issue, but from what I have read (on this forum and others) you are not alone in experiencing voltage drops at night below the regulated tolerance. Seems like a transformer tap change is required.

    Tax Code for Pensioners.

    Did we watch or listen to the Budget? It was laid out that from 2027 that pensioners will not pay tax on their standard state pension. So no need for the partition !

    Finally given up!

    MG = Chinese, Cheap vehicles, low quality build, very poor after sales support. list goes on. BUT we are all attracted like moths to the street lamp at night, to a bargain list price, and a long list of technical goodies !.

    FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE - not working

    Sorry matejF you're mistaken, there are a good number of companies that priorities quality over cost, you only need to at Apple or Rolls-Royce.... but if you're just looking at Chinese car manufactures your right, high low cost tech (to draw in the punters (sorry customer), with a 1990's driving...

    Long-term ZS owners

    If you use ABRP. I would also recommend you pay for at least one months subscription, and buy a OBD2 dongle (data from which is only accessible in ABRP via subscription). Why?, the car over estimates the percentage charge in most cases.

    You could burn your music onto a USB thumb drive !

    Why I sold my MG4 Trophy

    I smart

    iSmart DOES allow the charging limit to be set, but is that a thing on a Hybrid?

    13A fuse blowing on MG4 Trophy granny charger plug.

    I'd be questioning the quality of the wiring to the outlet you are using.

    Granny Charging

    Please DON'T use a smart plug with a Granny Charger. They may be able to do so for a couple of charges, but when they fail, boy beware !!!

    New MG parts warehouse for UK

    It wasn't Nigel's action that resulted in the mess of Brexit, it the successive governments which failed to take advantage of the freedoms gained.

    Preconditioning the battery

    Not really worth pre-heating the battery when charging on AC, as you will/may use more electricity to pre-heat than you gain in charging speed from charging a cold battery. Benefits are mostly when DC charging.
