I agree, but perhaps a "careful", controlled use of right foot??

Agreed, 100%!

I assume you have the Facelift version of the MG5? With my previous car, a pre-facelift 5, turning off the car also turned off the radio (no need to lock the car to achieve this) but turning the car on again also started the radio, unmuted, on the station last listened to. I don't think this...

In many places it's more like 40p!

Don't panic; it took more than a week of diagnostics for MG to finally admit the need to make this change!

And here it is...! MG Technical have decided the car needs the T-Box replacing!

I can't answer for your specific car but that is certainly what happens for me in my 2025 MGS5.

Agreed. But it's not clear, to me at least, whether @Amun had used the screen option before leaving the vehicle.

From my experience I think you still have to lock the car to activate full power off. The infotainment screen option seems to turn off most of the systems but the radio, at least, is still on and "playing" until the car is locked. I don't know whether, eventually, it does complete the full...

The S5 is Pacific Blue, not Westminster Blue. :unsure: The original MG5 included a Westminster Silver option IIRC. But, seriously, congratulations on the new purchase! As someone who moved from a PFL MG5 to the MGS5 I can honestly say it's a real "step up in the world" (even with all the...

As I've reported elsewhere (this topic seems to be spreading into multiple threads) my S5 is currently with the dealer, where their "Master Technician" has been running diagnostic tests for some days and communicating his findings to MG Technical. Very early on in the process, MG Technical...

I see that message also! I use AdGuard for Android to "remove" the plethora of ads that seem to infest Android. Within its (AdGuard's) App Management settings I see a message that MGiSMART is "Not routed through AdGuard" but only by turning AG off I can access iSMART??? I've sent a support...

@marcbesty Welcome to the forums! If you do a quick search in the MGS5 forum area you will find there are a number of us experiencing exactly what you describe! Mine is currently on a Diagnostic Check with my local dealer, who has, apparently, managed to convince MG Technical that there is...

Assuming you mean MG-pilot, that was present in both versions. As @Everest says, the easiest external difference to be seen is the front of the vehicle.

I think, from my experience, AI is correct and the dealer is wrong! As I've reported elsewhere, having also experienced the "dead" 12v battery problem (at least 4 times) and the dealer being unable to find any fault, despite an initial 2 full days of diagnostics, I've been keeping a daily log...
