    MG S5 charging with Ohme Pro I can’t plug and go

    Also check you haven't got a charging schedule set in the car / app and that the % to charge to is set above the actual charge in the car.

    USB Recognition Failed

    It looks like the car for some reason is looking for a USB drive which is no longer there but has got stuck in a loop draining the battery. I wonder if you insert a USB drive into the car and let the car recognise it it will break the cycle. The other option is the DAB module is connected to...

    USB Recognition Failed

    I take that to mean you have nothing plugged into any of the USB sockets? No sat-nav, phone or USB stick?

    Battery balancing. No

    I did my first 100% balance charge with 50 miles on the clock and it took over 2 hours to complete on a 7.5kW home charger.

    Battery balancing. No

    I think my first balance charge took over two hours before my Zappi charger showed that the car wasn't drawing any charge.

    Pay per mile. Another blow for EV drivers

    I think the Conservative shadow chancellor sums it up by saying "If you own it, Labour will tax it"

    Pay per mile. Another blow for EV drivers

    It looks like from 2028 EV drivers are going to be paying 3p per mile on top of road tax. They say it's to fill the alleged black hole and to even up the amount EV drivers pay for using the road compared to ICE vehicles. Once again the government after encouraging drivers to buy one sort of...

    Lane departure warning and forward collision warning systems

    I only occasionally have this problem but I do have the AC running most of the time which dries the air before it enters the car keeping the moisture level down.

    Rfid? Debit card ? Charging ?

    As @Data mentioned above it might be worth getting the Electroverse card and app and linking your debit card to it. You don't have to be an Octopus customer, although if you are they will add the payment to your monthly bill, and you don't get the pre-charge...

    2000 mile review

    The MG5 is front wheel drive so it is more prone to spinning its wheels whereas the MG4 and MGS5 are rear wheel drive so although they don't spin the wheels as readily they can send the back end out sideways if accelerating hard on a greasy traffic island. The MGS5 limits the power to the...

    New car payment upfront without viewing

    I bought my pre-registered MGS5 from Stoneacre in Derby and had to pay the balance between the trade-in value of my MG4 and the purchase price of the "new" car in full a couple of days before I collected it.

    EV Chargers

    You need to also consider if you are thinking of getting solar panels and or a house battery in the future weather to get one that integrates with them which is why I got the Zappi.

    Range - 80%

    I'd start looking for a charger depending on the range left according to the GOM and what I would feel comfortable with. Using the % left will give a different range depending on the time of year and how you've been driving.
