4th and 5th services are the expensive ones. Go onto the MG website and see how the price for a service plan on there compares.

Can I assume the dealer is Croxdale? Have heard good reports on them.

Glad you are ok and got home at a sensible time on this occasion! The last time I went over Hardknott was about 25 years ago and that was on an Aprilia V twin 1000cc motorbike, not something I would ever want to repeat! I haven't problems doing the road but not on a big heavy motorbike with...

They don't do a full software update on delivery as it will take them most of a full day to do and can be problematic and it is time consuming as a tech has to monitor the process. From a cost point of view if 90% of the ones they deliver are fine then they only have to do a much smaller number...

Funnily enough it was them that did my first 2 services and after complete bull and lies from them I changed to another dealer about 12 miles east of them. The new dealer doesn't appear any better! I can't personally vouch for them but I haven't heard any bad reports about the dealer in...

Back in September 23 when I had my first service done I was told that they had to do updates otherwise the warranty wasn't valid! Then when it went back for it's second service they didn't plug it in so no updates were done. They just make it up as they see fit. Third service at another dealer...

I think the improvement in efficiency is more likely due to the increase in temperature.

Same one I replaced mine with a few weeks ago - maybe 45 minutes to fit, needs the bracket holding it down undoing as well as the fabric strap over the battery. Also undid 2 of the screws holding down the large black plastic cover as that needed moving slightly to get the battery out. Luke you...

No - I changed dealer for the third service last month and @nanomad checked my VIN number after the service and he confirmed that nothing had been updated since the first service on 1/9/23 when SCUK001 was actually done. I'm not sure why I bothered changing dealer as they all seem as bad as each...

SCUK001 made no difference to my ACC slowing down in bends so it must be another module update that sorted yours. When mine went in for its 3rd service last month I asked them to sort the slowing down and was told there would be a £160 diagnostic charge which would be chargeable if no fault...

Will be interesting to hear if they discover anything and if it will be covered by warranty (not sure if the infotainment is covered for 2 years but if you have reported the issue it should be covered). I've got one of these to fit (can't remember who recommended it) so hopefully will make...

Very little difference TBH - think you lose the pull down option on the main screen on AA using R38.

Currently on R33 (self installed!) and I've not had any battery drain although I have replaced the 12V battery a month or so ago.

Mine regularly freezes on a long journey when I'm on BBC 5 live - normally around Lincoln when I'm travelling down from N. Yorks. Infotainment version R13 and R33 were both exactly the same.

SC0077 update to the LKA should be done as part of the service which will certainly vastly improve the LKA when done (mine wasn't done 2 weeks ago when my SR was serviced but that's another story!). The latest infotainment version for the SE is R38 and some dealers are doing it but not all! It...
