    Charging Port Refused to release teh charging cable again - is this a fault?

    Sometimes the weight of the CCS charging plug also messes with the locking mechanism (for locking anyway). Holding it up may make it easier for the locking pin to retract.

    HV Battery Shut Off - MG4 suddenly died

    Also might want to check out this thread (not sure if it is exactly the same as what happened to you) https://www.mgevs.com/threads/total-loss-of-power-on-a-busy-dual-carriage-way-im-really-scared-it-will-happen-again.22377/

    HV Battery Shut Off - MG4 suddenly died

    I don’t think the dealer can check diagnostics remotely. I would get them to look into it if only to ease your mind a bit. I had a conrod escape through the side of the block in the RCZ once, even thought the replacement engine was newer it made me hesitant to drive for a good while after...

    New Facelift?

    That does look nice, might be a bit more comfortable for those who have their knees planted against the shelf in the current model.

    Only charging at 45kW max. on 350kW charger.

    Doesn't it take a bit of charge before the full comes on? Comparable to how it slows down at >80%, or is that an NMC thing?

    MG4 powering other stuff (Vehicle to Load aka ‘V2L’)

    You are correct. EcoFlow sell a grounding connector, but that doesn't work with their newer/current models, and I don't really fancy spending a few thousand dollars on this anyway. Thank you (and @T1 Terry ) for your input :)

    MG4 powering other stuff (Vehicle to Load aka ‘V2L’)

    Thanks for the input. We’ll have a house and shed in about six months so I’m not going to set a bunch of stuff up. I’m thinking maybe I’ll just have to get one of those battery generators I think. Maybe with some of those fold out solar panels. So basically any appliance that needs an earth...

    MG4 powering other stuff (Vehicle to Load aka ‘V2L’)

    sounds like I might have to find another way to get some power to the thing then, bummer

    MG4 powering other stuff (Vehicle to Load aka ‘V2L’)

    If the honourable members will allow me to resurrect an old thread; I received my electric UTV today, and was hopeful to charge it from my MG4 using the V2L. Both the supplied trickle charger, as well as the MG trickle charger came up with a fault indicating “ungrounded”. I think there has been...

    MG 4 deep sleep mode

    I find that sometimes the app is worried about you being the rightful owner (or whatever it is worried about) and needs you to unlock the car using the key fob. I’ve had two instances where I needed the app to work for me and the response was something along the lines of “I’m not doing anything...

    Front electronic vent

    Mine only really opens when I run the A/C. But it just opens once, then closes after the A/C turns off. If it constantly opens and closes there may be a faulty sensor somewhere?

    found another quirk.

    Apart from the car not realising she was sitting in it, did they like the MG4?

    Wireless AA Adaptor

    I use a Carlinkit 5.0 mini with a 30 second delay. This thread mentions heaps of dongles, I know it says CarPlay but most work for AA as well. https://www.mgevs.com/threads/a-wireless-carplay-adaptor-that-actually-seems-to-work-reliably.17418/

    Does anyone know the peak charging current of the 12V battery?

    I don’t have an exact answer for you but perhaps the people in this thread can help you out; https://www.mgevs.com/threads/12-volt-battery.24255/

    What if EVs came first and someone invented a petrol car?

    Not to be that person, but for those interested, EVs pretty much came first, just couldn't evolve quick enough I guess. https://www.caranddriver.com/features/g43480930/history-of-electric-cars/

    Miles/kWh

    I am convinced people to this because they are scared driving single lanes, so they slow down (wether they realise or not), then the overtaking lane gives them separation from oncoming traffic so they feel comfortable again and realise they’ve been going slow so speed up. There have been...

    Miles/kWh

    I find the closest the car comes to coasting is with regen set to A (adaptive?) but the ACC loves hard deceleration for sure. You can always switch the car to Neutral with the selector dial, I do this every now and then to clean the brake discs (as there is no regen braking in neutral). Lets me...
