Yes, that's usual. You won't hear it with an ICE car, but can with an EV. Some owners have reported especially noisy AC compressors, which was rectified with a change of oil in the compressor (some MG4s had wrong oil in compressor)

Depends on a number of factors. Charging rate can be altered in the car. 11kW charger would be 3 phase, are you using a 3 phase Type 2 cable? If not you'd only get one phase (so about 3kW). Profile says Trophy ER, which I believe still have the onboard 3 phase 11kW charger.

Yep, I did wonder what Ionity were thinking installing chargers next to a bank of open to all Tesla Superchargers.

Etching from bird poo can also be removed from wet sanding with a high grade paper, then polish, etc. Alternatively it can also be removed with a heat gun or hair dryer. YouTube has plenty of instructional videos on this.

There are Ionity chargers just off the Chippenham junction of M4, and more in Bristol just off M32 next to Ikea. You could use Electroverse with those

In your other post, I just mentioned the Tesla superchargers in Bristol that are open to all. There are 3 locations in total, with 2 at Cribbs Causeway close to M4/M5 interchange.

There are 3 Tesla supercharger locations open to all EVs in Bristol. Two are close to M5/M4 interchange at Cribbs Causeway. The other is next to Ikea in Bristol, just off M32. That one also has a set of Ionity rapid chargers next to it.

There is also a spoiler for below the rear window to match the spoiler above the window Becquet / Extension CAP pour MG 4 / Mulan (depuis 2022) - FranceAileron.fr : Votre Leader Français pour les ailerons et becquets Here's a rendering with both spoilers in place. I like it.

I used it on the glossy black plastic (rear corners) Comes up like a mirror. On the satin finish plastic trim and tyres I use Supaguard tire and trim dressing.

It is possible to change a tyre with tyre irons and a lot of elbow grease. Balancing can wait until you get back to civilisation. @Rolfe Sorry to hear of your ordeal, Absolutely useless service from them. Personally I use Greenflag. They use a network of local recovery companies, which know...

Looks very nice, enjoy!

Yes it is. I guess their Paintseal cream that I've used previously is the polish, and this then seals it with a wax? I didn't black the tyre sidewalls this time. That's from two weeks ago when I last washed the car.

Tried out a new polish wax today on the MG. Supagard 365 gloss enhancer, and it certainly does!

Once you've done this, you can add biometrics to iSmart. Unlock, turn heating on, etc require my fingerprint now

Looks more like a telephone or alarm cable to me. If that was the supply to the socket it would have melted within minutes.
