Need to buy a new Jack.

My little button on the right no longer keeps the flap shut. At the minute I'm using masking tape to keep it shut. Any ideas if this is a DIY job or the dealers? TIA

Tried to jack up the car yesterday but no joy. Do I need a special jack as the car is heavier than a petrol car? Tia

Thanks for that will be a big help.

Does anyone have a video of how to change these? Looking to do it myself.

Hi all need some help. On my MOT advisory it says shock absorbers light misting of oil nearside rear. When I get the next MOT it will fail because of this (used as a taxi). Has anyone else had this and what was the cost of repair. Its a 22 plate MG5? TIA

Mine did the same. I fixed it myself in 30mins

Loks like i was lucky then. Yes i will post the pictures. Good luck with your problem

Mine came off last week. Water pouring into the drivers side. MG told me 3 weeks. So I decided to do it myself. 30 mins I was back up and running. I have photos if anyone wants them. I didnt use any sort of clip or cable tie when i put it back together. The reason being is there is another joint...

Nice thanks for that will call them on monday

They are 3 hours away. But will call them and get a quote

Anyone know of an independant garage that could do a 3 yr service on an mg5 with 155000 miles. Looked at Mr Clutch anyone used these?

Thats what i thought the plan was to run it into the ground. I will have retired in 2 years anyway.

Update on my service. I went to MG in Southend after they quoted £164 for the 3 yr service( MG Basildon qupted me £310). When i arrived they took the car into the workshop and then told me the service would be £1300. The reason was because it is a Taxi. Please all comments appreciated. TIA

Hi all, Im sure this has been asked a million times. Am I correct in thinking the original bulbs are HB3 9005. I have just bought HB 3 9006 and they dont fit. It seems as you twist the bulb in place the black plastic lugs are different sizes? They are smaller on the new bulbs. Can anyone help?
