Auto hold applies the brakes using the same mechanism as when you put your foot on the brake. If you want the equivalent of the handbrake, pull the parking brake switch up or press the P on the drive mode rotary button. I'm guessing the brake lights go off in both cases but haven't checked. If...

That's identical symptoms to those reported in this thread: https://www.mgevs.com/threads/new-phone-problems.20735/ I also got a new phone and had the same problems a few days later. I did get it to work after trying a lot of different things and can confirm that you should get a screen pop up...

Or if you have a spare million or two: https://www.baca.uk.com/amphibioushouse.html

Myself and some others had this from new, but it faded over the first 500 miles. If yours follows that pattern, it is likely to be flat spots on the tyres caused by a long period in storage or shipping (6 months sitting at the docks for mine).

Some have reported a screen setting showing one thing, but the car actually does something else. The solution has often been to change the setting, then put it back to what you want. In your situation, I would rummage around in the car's charging pages and change everything you can find to...

Yes you can, but it's very tedious. Within carscanner you can create custom sensors if you happen to know the id's of a particular sensor that Carscanner doesn’t have built-in. Not that helpful as the sensor id's are not published. But to answer your question, a custom sensor can be comprised...

I had a feeling they might go that route to reduce the effect of the unexpected reversing up hill problem with OPD. If that is the case, it's doubly annoying for you and others who don't even get the option of OPD. More likely I think, it's a way of reducing how quickly it slows under ACC.

Is it just the display that's changed (I.e. the calibration), or does it feel like you are slowing down less too?

That's odd. About a year ago I poked around trying to find sensible values for the MG4 using car scanner by looking at what was known for other MG's. I found some PIDs which looked plausible for battery pack values: Post in thread 'OBD Data' OBD Data The voltages were typically 3.xxxx to a bit...

There are a lot of threads about playing with resistor between the PP and PE pins in the cable to adjust the power output. I believe people like EVCables used to supply cables with the higher outputs, but changed to the standard values a year or 2 ago - no idea if there were potential...

After some more tests it seems. Most likely that AA is starting on the phone when you plug in, but not displaying on the phone screen. When the car says continue setup on the phone, mine always displays properly now where originally it never did, so I can't diagnose any further. With the...

There have been a couple of reports on this forum, one quite recently: Post in thread 'XPower in the Snow' XPower in the Snow The snow's probably not a problem for you, but I think the other was something else such as a deep puddle or speed hump. I used to take the larger puddles much more...

The new phone paired with the MG OK, but that gets automatically disconnected when Android Auto starts - I think this may be normal as AA will take over all those functions which I think someone mentioned on a thread quite recently. When you press the button to swap apps with cable connected, it...

Okey dokey, So the good news is, I have had it working on the new phone at least once. The bad news is, I had exactly the same symptoms as the OP, and it took me an hour to get it going and I don't know what I did to make it work exactly. The best I can offer before I've gone and had another...

I guess the dealers are quite happy to do this work if possible - I suspect they're never going to lose out if they're paid for 12 minutes of time to undo 3 bolts and do up 3 others.
