    Seeking Regen and AC Recommendations for New Owner

    I now stick to the default so I don't have to tweak the settings whenever I get in. It seemed a little aggressive at first but I soon got used to it. I sometimes have spells of ACC during long motorway drives. I don't use the break pedal much at all. I did try using the other settings but in the...

    Test your MG4 battery to understand low range

    @Evergreen We don't know the formula, method and precision of the calculations for the summary statistics. Therefore we don't understand the precision, and compounding of errors of the derived values. Batteries are complex analogue systems and the methods for counting things are imperfect. The...

    Test your MG4 battery to understand low range

    I would recommend using the onboard diagnostics rather than approximation based on summary statistics. Moreover I suspect your method may ignore other battery drain such as air conditioning and in car entertainment which would introduce further inaccuracy. As a retired scientist, I would say...

    Test your MG4 battery to understand low range

    It started with a 74.4 kWh usable capacity, which reduces with battery aging. You can observe the current value with the car scanner app and an OBD dongle. I wouldn't rush to court.

    All season tyre choices

    The 18" ones cost a little more. I was looking at my old MX5s 16" tyre spec today and thinking I can remember when they were big tyres!

    All season tyre choices

    I did the same and went via Topcashback for a chance at 2.5% discount although my cash back tracking success has been low recently! My wife will be annoyed as she had Kwik Fit recommend a lot of unnecessary repairs recently. I could have paid £573 using the FLASH15 code at Blackcircles and had...

    All season tyre choices

    I have been reading through this thread and note an absence of Continental AllseasonsContact 2 enthusiasts which surprises me given its excellent reviews. Has anyone tried these? I will need to replace my Chinese Bridgestones and am looking for something well balanced that will cope with snow...

    Questions After MG4 First Service : Tyre Wear and Undertray (Front)

    3mm tread remaining on the original Chinese Bridgestones from the original 6mm. Mine came with the Chinese version of the T005 in the 235/45/R18 98W size. I was expecting the rear wear to be significantly greater. I have no idea why it's not and pondered my lack of breaking and reliance on...

    Questions After MG4 First Service : Tyre Wear and Undertray (Front)

    Hi, I just had my first MG4 Trophy LR annual service (for £135?) and a few things came up and I am wondering what you guys think about them especially the tyres: 1. Tyre wear ... after 11,400 miles I have 3mm wear on all tyre except driver side front at 4mm. I am not heavy footed so it...

    ACC

    I have a regular trophy bit the ACC whilst better than it was still struggles to deal with corners and overtaking vehicles. It also is a bit heavy in adjusting to attaching a slower vehicle. I tend to use it for short periods and switch back to manual control when it gets annoying. A minor...

    MG4 Trophy Long Range 10,000 Mile SoH

    Vgate iCar Pro 2S. The same one that siteguru linked above. I also got mine at a good price from Aliexpress although I was nervous as Aliexpress has a reputation for counterfeit goods.

    MG4 Trophy Long Range 10,000 Mile SoH

    I did exactly the same thing to support the developer. I have a feeling this sounds more noble than it is because it was a minimal sum :ROFLMAO:

    MG4 Trophy Long Range 10,000 Mile SoH

    @gary333 Thanks for the insights. I'm sorry to hear the MG4 doesn't suit you. I am very happy with mine especially with the current software sorting out the irritations of LKA. I'd like a heat pump on my next EV as winter range is more of a challenge and I have hobbies that require travel in...

    MG4 Trophy Long Range 10,000 Mile SoH

    Congratulations on maintaining your batteries health. For a moment I pondered a few variables such as whether harsher winter conditions or my long trip to Manchester were to blame before deciding that it's unknowable and could even be variation in quality of cells within the packs. So any...

    MG4 Trophy Long Range 10,000 Mile SoH

    Hi, As I am approaching a year of ownership of my MG4 Trophy LR and have done over 10,000 miles including more 100% to 20% journeys than I had anticipated I decided to use the on board diagnostics and car scanner to check the battery State of Health. I am overdue a balance charge which may...

    MG4 & 5 Ventilation

    My MG4 steamed up until I set it to use external air. I manually set the speed usually to 3 or 4 and week increase it when there are more people in the car. In winter I will direct the airflow over the screen more often. The car remembers the settings so I don't fiddle with it. I just leave the...

    Probably won’t get an MG4 again

    I have worked as a product manager in a couple of industries and always factored in historic and protected discounting when setting MRPs. In my most recent industry discounting was massive so to maintain margins after discounting MRPs were outrageous but the assumption was that nobody would pay...

    IS ABRP accurate for a MG4 Trophy?

    I have had it set itself to the default 5% degradation but my Trophy still has 100% SoH. I manually adjust this.

    IS ABRP accurate for a MG4 Trophy?

    Have you set the vehicle up as the correct model? Is your battery degradation set correctly? Are you using live weather data? Mine is much more accurate than that.
