    strange failure to go into ready

    Will the car go into ready mode if you’re not in P? I feel like I had something similar once and it was caused because I somehow got my sequence mixed up and put the car in R before going into ready mode. Had to put it back in P.

    Locked out

    I wonder if the car would lock if something in the back accidentally pressed the lock button on the key, despite the key being inside the car. But then you'd expect the button on the doorhandle to still allow the car to open, maybe? I feel like this is one of those things were a few stars have...

    MG4 in Australia

    Sure but we’re talking about your local Bob Jane or something, not an airplane…? If you think it will help you do what you do, I’m just saying I don’t believe the marketing around it, not in the case of normal tyre shops anyway. It would probably make the same difference to have them fill your...

    MG4 in Australia

    Unless they can suck the air out of your tyre first, the percentage increase in nitrogen is very minimal, I’ve always considered it a gimmick from tyre shops.

    MG iSMART app Token Expired

    I got kicked out a few days ago, couldn’t remember my password so reset it, didn’t allow me to use anything but letters and numbers though. And here (Australia) our app hasn’t even updated yet I think.

    MG4 Undertray dip/bulge

    It’s worth mentioning, they can have a look, if they think it’s nothing then at least you’ve reported it, in case it does become an issue later on.

    MG4 Bridgestone tyres - Damaged from new!

    Turanza tyres by Bridgestone have always been poor in the wet in my experience. I drive with a heavy foot, so I’m not blaming the tyres entirely, but for my style of driving they don’t work. I guess Bridgestone has focused on other aspects of the tyre over wet weather performance. I am planning...

    DC Fast Charging Speeds

    The lower (and higher) end of your SOC (state of charge) won't allow for the maximum charge rate. I would expect the charge rate to increase the closer you get to roughly 50%, and it'll slow down again progressively towards 100%. Other than that it could just be the charger itself, there could...

    MG4 Part Identification

    The most common issue with the back plate is warping, which is fixed by adding a metal plate to the plastic (but the plastic isn’t replaced). This is usually done under warranty or at least at no cost.

    MG4 in Australia

    Mine came with 3.0 bar from the dealership, it dropped to 2.5 with the onset of colder mornings, so put some more air in. Now they hover around 2.6/2.7 in the morning, up to about 2.8/2.9 when driving for a while. TPMS alarms going off as the weather cools is not unheard of anyway.

    LKA operation guide

    When you are in AA, can you drag down the options menu from the top of the screen? Or do you have to go back to the main menu of the car before it lets you drag down? I believe this is what NLMGSAN is revering to.

    LKA operation guide

    I believe that is down to android and apple, they see it as a safety risk (software wise) or something. It’s been mentioned before on the forums but can’t fully recall what their reasoning was. It’s not a choice MG made though.

    MG4 Essence 64 Battery Preheating Advice

    Doesn’t show up in the Australian app, I wonder if it’s related to us not having the options to remotely turn on heated seats, something the Europeans seem to get in their app. For some reason the Aussie app is disappointingly bare on functions it seems.

    MG4 Bridgestone tyres - Damaged from new!

    I agree, but I suspect MG would then claim the car would’ve warned about under inflation through the TPMS system, so they would then say it’s user error. And the TPMS system does seem to be calibrated to quite a high threshold, going by the numerous posts on the forum about cold weather setting...

    MG4 Essence 64 Battery Preheating Advice

    I find running the heater uses so much more energy than running the ac for cooling in summer, I really didn't expect this, I figured running the air conditioning would be a similar drain, heating or cooling. I try to keep it to heated seats and steering wheel as recommended by some on here. I...

    MG4 Panel fit

    I agree with the others, that gap isn’t right. I’d also like to mention that although the MG4 is considered cheap for an EV, I don’t think they are necessarily a cheap car, so don’t feel like you have to accept sub-standard experiences.

    MG4 in Australia

    Really feel MG misread the room on that one, but it is in line with their goal of being in the top 3 sellers.

    MG4 Bridgestone tyres - Damaged from new!

    You could try Bridgestone themselves, it’s a bit of a long shot but they might be more inclined to protect their brand than MG appears to be. Bridgestone would also be more interested in knowing if they have a manufacturing defect in their tyres I would assume.

    Second hand car booked in for "AC Heating Not Working"?

    If the car has a known issue, don’t buy it. It’s not like these cars are rare gems, find an MG4 that doesn’t have that issue. Dealership seems desperate to sell this one, also not a great sign.
