Similar thing with me (Oct 2023 MG4 Trophy LR), but now the range and mileage resets every time the ignition is turned on, plus other silly anomalies. Does anyone have a clue how to reset or restore everything, without having to take the car to the dealer? UPDATE Panic over, after a week of...

This is apparently not just an MG EV problem, shortly after buying my MG4 Trophy LR new in October 2023 and reading of other instances of 12V battery flat after leaving for a couple of weeks, The solution is 2-fold and very simple and much quicker than waiting for a breakdown van to arrive...

Power tailgate, or better assisted dampers would be a useful. I love my MG4 Trophy LR, but it will go at 2 years in October, the car has so far been brilliant, not a hiccup, but the boot is rather heavy for my wife to lift, so will get something with a powered tailgate, will have to wait and...

I'm now certain as well @siteguru, I didn't bother to check, so I was obviously mis-sold by the sound of it, I was told it had a heat pump, word of mouth only I'm afraid, so nothing I can do now 17 months later.

I don't actually understand what you mean, are you referring to MG in general or just MG4 models? My MG4 Trophy LR has a heat pump, I cant speak for other MG models.

Agree with the headlight sensaattivity, but it's not a major issue and easy to turn off.

I m only aware of 1st gen problems from other sources Delboy, I think most of the problems were sorted in my 2nd gen MG4, but the crap LKA was with me for the 1st year, which I disabled every time I remembered 😂. In retrospect the salesman was wanting me to buy an in stock 1st gen mg4, but I...

Johnny g, R59 UPDATE, sorted out the aggressive yanking of the steering wheel in Oct 24 on my 4 Trophy LR's 1st service. I've personally never been problemed by collision assist, but defo LKA was awful, although it could be turned off, the update simplified that process too, it seemed like MG...

I removed the. Centre headrest in my MG4, made a huge difference to rear visibility.

Ah OK Ian, I kinda misread exactly what you were getting at! :eek:(y)

Hi Ian, You have opened up another interesting point, the cost of charging at Home. I always charge my MG4 overnight @7p per kWh using Octopus Intelligent GO tariff, I'm wondering which energy supplier and Tariff you use, stating 15p to 20p. I have solar and huge bank of flooded lead acid...

Same here Salty.

Yes, I've never had a car fogging up so much, I've found turning on the heating / AC before I started driving, but that of course is costly on the battery, in an attempt to save the battery on longer trips turn off the heater, invariably it fogs up again in really cold weather.

Ditto on the opposite lock more than once Macadoodle, it's a fun car to drive that's for certain, long while since I had decent power to the rear wheels.
