So it only works with the update? (On or in ready)

I tried a tesla supercharger yesterday. It didn't charge. I tried with the car in ready mode but it don't want to charge either. (I didn't start the charging from the display in the car though. Is the EVCC a free update?

I tried with 3 phase and it's the same. It looks like when it charges (with car on) it's a bit more reliable but still not usable. What's the EVCC update? Is it software?

I already tried to put the car in ready mode and it did start charging but after maybe 5-10 minutes it stopped. I haven't tried it with the steps above. Maybe this will work. So does MG don't like tesla chargers in general or has my MG5 a defect?

How long do you wait until you start the charging on the app? So far i haven't had any success. After the procedure and some waiting i han see the message "connected, not charging" on the instrument display. When I then try to start charging on the app after a while the message "failed" comes...

Okay, so i can just plug it in later right? (When you would power it on). In Switzerland we usually don't have switches on the sockets.

Thanks for the fast reply. I'm pretty sure i have the gen1 (type 2 has all the pins and it's at least from 2017) What do you mean by connect the UMC to mains but not power it? (I don't think the UMC has a power switch right?) I definitely try that approach (i usually have a charging limit...

Hi everyone I have an issue, that my facelift MG5 won't really charge on my tesla UMC charging cable. It sometimes charges for a view minutes when i start up the car (like i would drive). On other typ 2 chargers (i tried an opel one) and also on wall boxes it charges fine. I checked my tesla...

In my MG5 i have the same issue with an iPhone SE. My MG5 has a very old software version so i hope it will be fixed after software update.

Yes, my car dealer confirmed that i have the wrong car. Just a matter of months for me to get the correct version. ;)

@smokie apparently the german road traffic department made a mistake when they approved the vehicle. I assume the had a lot of 61kwh models and that 50kwh model and just copy paste the name for every car. Unfortunately MG has quite a long delivering time on a new car. So it probably takes some...

My car dealer didn't exactly know how this happened. But i will report back when i get more information.

Thanks again for all your help. The car dealer now confirmed that i have the wrong battery (instead of the 61kwh i hav the 50.3kwh). Apparently MG have some supply difficulties so it might take some time until i get the right car.

Thanks. Unfortunately my battery don't have the data plate. But i still think the last number is the KWh. On yours its EU150A52S and its a 52KWh battery. I think the facelift SR has a higher pack voltage. So that's why mine has 131Ah.
