I wouldn’t worry about taking them out for service, there is no expectation for the car to return to service the way it got delivered. Especially if you own the car. Beyond that, @siteguru is correct, taking them out means you’ll lose the retaining nut inside the bonnet.

Yeah I recollect a thread showing this before and some people looked for a RHD version, but I don’t think anybody ever found one.

This setting can be changed in the "normal" settings pages as well, but the swipe down menu is a good short cut.

Dongles need a delayed start up, but that won’t fix all the issues you’ve described. Songs only paying smoothly when downloaded would indicate an issue with your phone’s connection/speed though, not necessarily the dongle. Same suspicion could be had with regards to bad gps signals. I had a...

To start with; The Turanza T005 comes with less thread from the factory (only 6mm instead of the more standard 8). I couldn't find clear proof that the T006 does the same, but it is likely as apparently they don't differ too much. Then there’s the chance you get charged more on the retail side...

Don’t waste money on OEM like for like replacements, I’ll have a peek at what’s out there nowadays and give you some advice as if I still sold tyres, but first I’m watching F1 haha!

If your “intelligent” battery heating is on, consumption will be higher at the start of every journey. If you do short journeys heating the battery isn’t worth it, you’ll spend more energy heating it than you lose by not heating it.

Yeah I've seen figures that would extrapolate to either a 80 kWh battery pack, or on other occasions a 40 kWh battery pack. It's Trophy so both would be a little off.

I got one of those in the car, but that's more because of the booster pack function it also has (in case I ever come to a dead 12v battery). There have been some reports of the MG compressor being cheap and practically single use, so figured I might as well upgrade that in one go.

Back when I worked at the tyre shop, we had to reverse into some tight places and up to the showroom window (one dumbo backed into the showroom once), I always preferred manoeuvring using the mirrors, most consistent across all makes and models.

I had a Quadlock that kept dropping the signal, so I switched to a Carlinkit 5.0 Mini, haven't had a single issue since. Connects quickly and reliably, and stays connected. Longest the car has been sitting idle was a few weeks ago when I was sick (so didn't go to work), the car sat for 4 days...

Depends on whether you prefer the extra kit on the Trophy I guess. I’m not familiar with 24 vs 73 plate, but I think some 24 plates may be a phase 1 (no middle headrest or rear wiper) and some of those come with their specific issues, so I would always prefer a phase 2 in that case.

They probably just don’t want to cover an item that wears from being used. I doubt service or mot care, a lot of cars have gas struts for the bonnet.

I feel like you can have them adjusted for use when standing still, or adjusted for use when driving, but not both at the same time. It’s a strange design for sure!

"cooling of the high voltage battery" sounds like marketing BS, I've only ever heard people speak about losing range because the battery packs are cold (and heating themselves). I doubt it ever gets hot enough in Manchester for the pack to be cooled down. And even if it needed it, isn't that...

Probably the range, I’ve only ever had one butt clenching drive which was at the very start of my EV ownership so my planning wasn’t that great, I’ve never had range anxiety since though. The reason I wouldn’t trade in now is that I might as well drive this car for a few years, and then most...

If I was better informed when buying my MG4 I would've probably gone for the ER, but I do also have to admit that I'm never short on range in my LR Trophy.... The missus suggested I enquire about trading in my LR for an ER, but I don't think I'll bother now to be honest.

I read that they'll call it the MG4 Urban when it comes to us Down Under, so it would track if they do that across several markets. Although they have different spec level names everywhere, so maybe not...

I’d be interesting to see if the trunk pushes itself open enough for these struts to then lift it, I don’t think the trunk moves a lot when opening it using the key fob.

China not starting any wars is a bit of wishful thinking. They are engaged in many proxy conflicts, most and foremost Ukraine. They are constantly trying to muscle their way into other peoples territorial waters, and they do commit genocide within China. Plus they occupy Tibet. The USA might be...
