That sounds like similar behaviour to mine. When stopped I've seen various power levels reported, both positive and negative. Obviously a continuous negative power when stopped is nonsense, and after watching it change more closely as I came to a stop, decided it simply doesn't update the...

Mine used to do this a lot, but after one of the app updates, it is now rare and usually only after a couple of days being idle. I found that when it happened, if you ask the app for the status before sitting on the seat to power it up, the 12V battery was typically 12.1 or 12.2 V compared to...

I wasn't referring to your calculation. The bit I think is problematic is mostly how MG calculate the energy used. If they work off the difference in battery voltage each time, they are measuring tiny differences in voltage which are prone to many different types of error e.g. the various...

My gut feeling is that the main reasons for the discrepancy you're seeing will due to the measurements and calculations done to provide the accumulated distance and accumulated kWh per 100km that you're using. As a user, teasing apart how much error is in each figure could be quite challenging...

I've always found the dedicated demist button under the infotainment screen works very quickly. I assume it sets all the settings (blower direction, speed, heat and recirculation) to the most efficient for demist. A second press should revert to the previous settings I think. I would check it's...

There's a slight chance that clearing the cache (from Android or within the app), could reset it enough to fix the problem without needing a phone signal or WiFi. Worth a try. Clearing the data from settings should be the same as uninstall/ reinstall, but not helpful here as you would then...

Me too. Others have suggested adding speed limiter options to the ACC/TJA long press button, which may also work. Maybe add a 4th distance (or long press) to the radar arrow keys for radar off? I'm not holding my breath for a retro fit to our models though 🙁.

After thinking a little, not a lot! The features I would use are already present in the car, so in my mind it would take little extra to allow better control of them. The MG4 is perfectly good enough, it's just it could be better.

Personally I want different combinations of features for different road conditions. Easily switching speed control between, off, cruise and speed limiter, would be good. Switching radar speed control on/off, even for speed limiter mode would be good. And if TJA's lane control was accurate...

I did a quick scan of the replies, and it looks like no one has mentioned that on later versions of the software you can also drag down from the top of the screen and hit the off button. I don't know if it's just me or my car, but half the time it turns back on as I shift my weight to get out...

The app can change the times set in the car, but sometimes when you tell it to do so the new settings fail to get set in the car.

Same here. In fact I've been back quite a lot this year helping clear the old family home, so any reds you see could be me.

The actual start and stop of scheduled charging is controlled only by the car, and the settings shown in the car have been reliable in my experience. Ismart should be able to tell you the current state of the schedule and charge limit set in the car, and also to change these values, however...

I would expect that the level of regen would need to drop below 3 or 4 % (not 7 or 8%) before the lights turn off again. This is to stop the lights from flashing when the regen is hovering around the 6 to 8% region for a period. This may explain @Joningy 's comment - if the initial lift off...

I'm pretty sure I've seen a white on a driveway in Frampton Cotterell a couple of times, and in the evening on the 12th a red at the traffic lights there. Not yours by any chance? I was a passenger in another car at the time so you wouldn't have seen my red parked half a mile away.
