If you are only doing the EVCC you should be ok. But tbh why go to lengths of buying the kit and setting it all up and then not take advantage in doing the whole suite? I didn’t previously get to do the TBox update in conjunction with the Infotainment system as that required tracking down...

Can’t remember off the top of my head but I did have one module that ‘failed’ the update and took a further couple of attempts before accepting it. Key thing is to use a battery charger alongside, as noted above, to mitigate voltage drop on the 12v battery and don’t be afraid to persevere / keep...

Very similar experience a couple of weeks ago on my part! Had a large stone flicked-up from vehicle in front on M25 commute - hit in line with rear view mirror so couldn’t see damage at first, despite the bang, but once home a long crack was already apparent centred around a heavy chip in the...

Sorry, been offline for a while. No further reader required for TPMS reprogramming - is all done within the SIPS/VDS software, which in turn requires an active RMI session (access purchased in 1 or 24hr slots). MG5 user manual does not state requirement for reprogramming wheels to a specific...

A set of 4 OEM spec (non-SAIC) is about $20 from Ali Express

You can do the updates yourself for circa £135 https://www.obd2.ltd/goods-564-VNCI-VDI3-Roewe-MG-Wuling-Maxus-automotive-diagnostic-tool.html SAIC RMI access is c.£16 for 24hrs Just need a windows laptop. Benefit is that you can do full updates across the board, including infotainment, and for...

Agree. I have 4 + 5 and successfully access both via VNCI dongle and SIPS software without issue.

I went with keeping the aim high on basis of doing a lot of motorway miles and there’s nothing worse than the spray not reaching the windscreen at higher speeds.

Yep, that about sums it up 😳

Unlucky! Had a close shave myself a few days ago - did an overtake on two cars (std carriageway, 50mph limit) only to discover the front one was an unmarked car that instantly lit up like a Christmas tree and pulled me over for a stiff talking-to 🧐🤬🤣

Looks really good. Also like the idea of fitting a front/rear dash cam which largely requires the same bits to be pulled apart and can share same cable route etc, so makes good sense to do in one hit. Another one to go on the to-do list 🧐👍

Which dealer did it come from? Not seen version 1300 R07 installed on a later Trophy. You need to challenge them on it in the first instance. Mine came with R12 which was current at the time of manufacture (March ‘23) Have since updated to R17 myself as purchasing dealer was both useless and...

Would be interesting to see if just the blade could be ordered and for how much. May be possible/cost effective to mix ‘n match i.e. blade from dealer and fob from elsewhere. Anyone with SIPS/VDS3 access can do the programming part, I believe.

Roll on the day when the car’s software will force drivers back to the inside lane instead of sitting in the middle of nowhere, not specifically overtaking, and totally oblivious to the faster traffic they’re holding up 🤬
