    Interesting thought from another forum - satnav home address.

    Hmm.. the cynic in me wonders what evidence Tracker have for this. Funny that a warning just happens to come from a company that is then promoting their own product to counteract the issue ;) And whether 'Nathalie Middleton' from Fleetworld actually checked the validity of this claim and put...

    Mismatch between fuel and display

    I thought they measure fuel flow by knowing injector flow rate + rpm + opening times of injector. Then combine that with either speed for instantaneous mpg display or distance for average consumption since last reset. So should be pretty accurate - my BMW (diesel... am I allowed to say that...

    Warranty still valid? - Bought 2022 ZS EV with no proof of first service

    Fingers crossed it may work out OK, if it has been serviced and you get hold of the service invoice. But in my mind something still doesn't add up. When the dealer purchased the vehicle they surely would have checked service history and adjusted their buy-price accordingly? For example, as...

    Mismatch between fuel and display

    Just thinking outside the box here... do plug-in-hybrids show petrol consumption as well as miles per kWh on their dash? If so, presumably they must somehow ignore distance powered by electric motor as that would have come from externally charged power. If that is the case (and just guessing...

    Max Speed for Full Stop AEB

    I thought that under 30km/h (so approx. 19mph) the MG will apply brakes itself, but over 30km/h it will warn first and then brake if you don't brake or accelerate? But I might be wrong, only recalling what I have read on here. I suspect (as @decrep) says that the wheels won't actually lock -...

    Warranty question

    Interesting. Do you have that in writing? If I understand you correctly MG UK customer services are saying you could have a car that is (for example) 5 years old without having had any servicing done. And then just take it for a service at an MG dealer and it would be covered on the...

    Warranty still valid? - Bought 2022 ZS EV with no proof of first service

    Out of interest, not that this may change the course of action, but is:- a) the salesman now claiming he didn't say the car had a full service history, or b) is he admitting he said that, but is now admitting he was wrong? I'm thinking if it was (b) then surely you could additionally claim -...

    Warranty still valid? - Bought 2022 ZS EV with no proof of first service

    Did the dealership express any mention of the 7 year warranty, even verbally, when you were initially looking at the car?

    Warranty still valid? - Bought 2022 ZS EV with no proof of first service

    This ^^^^ I'm not a lawyer, but I believe an employee acting on behalf of a business would commit the business, but probably more hassle than it is worth if it became a legal wrangle in the future. Dealerships are not large corporations - it would make sense to insist on the manager of the...

    Interesting thought from another forum - satnav home address.

    Hmm... if someone steals my bag it's more likely they could find my house from ID / paperwork in my bag than finding a random car that they keys match and then using the car's satnav to find my house. If I were a burglar, I'd just jemmy a window open when no-one is at home rather than the 3...

    Mismatch between fuel and display

    That makes no sense, for the reasons @Coulomb mentioned above 🤷‍♀️ Maybe MG just employed some redundant VW engineers from 2015, who had learnt the skills of making cars appear more efficient than they are? :ROFLMAO:

    Bad month for solar generation

    :giggle: - full moon luminosity is about 1/100000 to 1/400000th of the sun, so you'd need a large PV array to get 1W. But one can observe some open circuit voltage on the panels on a clear night as someone posted in this thread... https://diysolarforum.com/threads/lunar-energy.92695/post-1292653

    Bad month for solar generation

    Likely due to "cloud edge effect". Also lower temperatures will increase output; typical temp coefficient will be around -0.25% per degree C. Edited... BB beat me to it :)

    Sudden automatic braking issue (merged, MG4)

    Surely the whole point of 'alert only' is that it just warns you, rather than stopping :unsure:
