    Did you buy your EV to Save The Planet?

    I have a similar guilty pleasure, when I’m on the freeway and about to overtake a slow 4x4 Ute (pick up), they sometimes (often actually) start speeding up ( I suspect because they can’t stand being overtaken by an EV). I often just let the cruise control hold me steady because eventually they...

    Did you buy your EV to Save The Planet?

    This is why I really like that the MG4 shows its colour on the inside of the cabin. Just a few bits from the door (and I can see the edge of the bonnet too), it's nice to see the colour you paid for, instead of just all black plastic.

    Did you buy your EV to Save The Planet?

    I love the silence, but also enjoy the gentle whine of the motors on acceleration, sounds like the future to me!

    Either I'm living in the future or the iSMART app is absolutely pissin' useless

    I hope that version stays far away from Aussie shores then, I hate apps or websites that don't work with VPN.

    Did you buy your EV to Save The Planet?

    MG4 is my first EV as well, it is worth noting though that this thread originated in the MG4 subforum, so that may also explain why so many responses are from MG4 owners.

    Did you buy your EV to Save The Planet?

    I used to worry about these things, but then I realised I don’t have any kids and I won’t have any kids, and so many people with kids don’t do anything to keep the plant habitable, so why should I try? Now I just drive electric because it is better than ICE cars. Besides, even with global...

    Car locked with the key inside...

    I’m joining the club! I had an appointment after work so put my work bag (with my keys in there) in the boot which opened as expected without unlocking the car. Then I shut the boot, the car locked itself, I walk to the driver door and press the button, nothing happens. I swear under my breath...

    MY MG4 Crashed itself. Is it Software related? Suggestions please

    The thing that I find a little worrying is that when I have cruise control active and let go of the steering wheel, I get a gentle warning to hold the wheel, then a louder warning to do the same, and after that it cancels the lane keep assist, but keeps the emergency function active, as well as...

    MY MG4 Crashed itself. Is it Software related? Suggestions please

    Sounds like the 22nd of Jan was an instance of Emergency Lane Keep, not just the lane keep assistant. The assistant tries to keep you between the lines, beeping at you when too close to a line, and tugging the wheel a bit. The Emergency Lane Keep yanks the wheel hard because it believes you are...

    CarPlay Wireless Dongle

    In my case (which I think is similar to other cars) the car software takes a little while to get up and go, and some dongles stop trying to connect to the car before the car is ready. Setting the delay is telling the dongle to wait before trying to connect with the car, giving the car time to...

    Windscreen cleaner spray nozzle issues/replacement

    I see what you mean, I think the lines should be viewed as vertical though, in which case they look the same back or front. Top of window /\ Bottom of window

    Windscreen cleaner spray nozzle issues/replacement

    It would be the same from inside the car or standing on the outside looking at the the front.

    HVAC under seat function not working

    I’ve decided my next car will definitely have to have ventilated seats. Of course they seem to come with more and more cars after I bought my MG4, at least I get to cool it down before I have to drive it through the iSMART app.

    Corroded (rear) discs

    The EPB only clears the rear brakes though doesn’t it? It wouldn’t help with scrubbing the fronts I think.

    Corroded (rear) discs

    Pulling on the parking brake overrides the accelerator, I've tried it to answer someone else's question about it a while ago; https://www.mgevs.com/threads/using-the-electronic-parking-brake-or-the-p-button-whilst-driving-at-speed.22669/post-389605 As far as the topic is concerned I have a...

    Are you happy with your MG4?

    A lady at Wangara MG service once told me they always do all updates during service, and only update in between regular services if a fault is present. This was about a year ago though when I was back to get the bracket fixed to my under tray, so their policy might have changed since. Wangara...

    MG4 - Crash repair: Questions and then repairs

    I think they owned the car before the crash and the crash happened to them without being insured.

    Michelin Pilot Sport 5

    I’m partial to some Michelins when the Bridgestones finally give out, maybe a little sooner if I decide on after market rims.

    New 2026 MG4 EV and MG4 EV Urban

    I like the look of the updated interior, but it’s a bit like meeting the prettier sister after getting married, looks great but too late for me 🤷‍♂️ By the time I’m replacing my MG4 there will be so many more and different cars around. I can see how it might be interesting for people on...
