    ECM, PEU, TCM Update

    I had the PD052 update, in the UK, nearly two weeks ago and it definitely hasn't resolved my over-revving issue. It seems that the update has worked for some on this forum but not for others. Perhaps, it's possible my dealer hasn't installed it properly (as Mickel suggests) but is that likely? -...

    ECM, PEU, TCM Update

    My dealer emailed me today to confirm the update was applied on Friday (Shrewsbury) "The PD052 update is to two modules. This update is to update the PEU and the ECM. The ECM was already upto date so we only had to apply the PEU update - this is the PD052 update." I have responded that the car...

    MG ZS HYBRID+ Gets Fix After Acceleration Issue Exposed by CarSauce

    My last but one post did say "The increase is very audible and there is no acceleration". I note your comments regarding the battery but others on the forum I believe had suggested a link between depleted battery and over-revving. This doesn't seem to be the case in my experience. The excessive...

    MG ZS HYBRID+ Gets Fix After Acceleration Issue Exposed by CarSauce

    3000 revs would be fine as you say but not if the car loses its acceleration every time - which happened once when I was overtaking and was frightening and downright dangerous. And, as I said earlier the battery clearly wasn't depleted or in need of extra recharge as it switched to EV as I...

    MG ZS HYBRID+ Gets Fix After Acceleration Issue Exposed by CarSauce

    As I drive uphill I lightly press the accelerator to maintain my speed and revs rise from about 2000 to 3000+ and on occasion 5000+. The increase is very audible and there is no acceleration. It's like being out of gear in a manual car. I have to take my foot off the accelerator, slow down and...

    MG ZS HYBRID+ Gets Fix After Acceleration Issue Exposed by CarSauce

    Further to my previous posts where I'd hoped the PD052 update had been applied to my car. I drove the car home today from Shrewsbury (50 miles). On several occasions the car over-revved on long but not steep upslopes. ☹️ It can't be that the battery has depleted as some seem to suggest as at the...

    MG ZS HYBRID+ Gets Fix After Acceleration Issue Exposed by CarSauce

    I did ask for a print out but was told it wasn't available today and to call tomorrow. I have just written a long email to the dealer outlining all the issues with my car - excess revving, loss of power uphill and overtaking, squealing brakes, lane assist pulling me over the centre line. My...

    MG ZS HYBRID+ Gets Fix After Acceleration Issue Exposed by CarSauce

    Just picked my car up from MG Shrewsbury. The chap I spoke to said the technician had applied an update to the PEU and all my other software was already updated. He could not confirm if the update was PD052. He said they had test driven the car but couldn't recreate the over-revving issue. His...

    My car is having the PD052 update as I type. 🤞 Getting a few alarms coming through on the app about tyre pressure. 🙁

    MG ZS Hybrid+ high engine revs

    Some of the above comments are appreciated but a little too technical for me so I hope you all don't mind if I get a bit basic. I regularly use a road in mid Wales called Bwlch y Groes.The southern ascent is approximately 1.7 miles (2.7 km) long with severe gradients throughout (steepest 1 in...

    Lane departure warning system reacts incorrectly

    I mentioned this issue in a separate thread. I'm in the UK. "I've driven the car 2 months and on a few occasions noticed 1. If I do drift over a central line the lane assist seems to pull further across the line. 😲. 2. Just driving normally, well within lines, lane assist tries to correct me."...

    Lane assist issue?

    I'm having the PD052 update applied in a week - the over-revving is still occuring but I manage it better with heating down and more controlled driving. But before I take it for the update I wonder if any of you have had any issues with lane assist. I've driven the car 2 months and on a few...

    Seeking Advice on ZS Hybrid Plus Fuel Efficiency and Electric Motor Usage

    Just read the above comments regarding heating impacting on EV mode. I drove to Aberdovey beach today - about 18 miles through winding roads. On normal regen 2. Not once did EV kick in. Halfway back I asked my wife to knock down the heating from 26° to 23° and immediately EV kicked in. We...

    TAILGATE DOES’NT LOCK. Please check yours?

    Hi Noel, There is seemingly a fault with your car or keys. I'm assuming your first scenario is probably correct. The first time we struggled with the boot being unlocked wasn't helped by the wife having the spare key in her handbag in the car. 😁 I tried attaching a quick video that shows my boot...

    TAILGATE DOES’NT LOCK. Please check yours?

    I initially thought it was a pointless gimmick but I quite like it now. No need to search in my pockets for keys when I get to the boot with a shopping trolley or when I have my two dogs on leads who travel in the boot.
