    So long and thanks for all the FSH

    In parliamentary terms, " the eyes have it " !!! In a dyslexic moment I read it as , fish , and will continue to do so, I'm not going to change my ways now. Now! if only I could see my FSH I might change my mind. :unsure:

    So long and thanks for all the FSH

    If you read through the maintenance/repair manuals ( see Siteguru ) it has something called " learning mode " I do not understand it but maybe ..... If you use the manual handbrake release regularly to drive without the seatbelt connected for manoeuvring , it remembers it and allows you to...

    Minor CCU connection problem

    For the last few weeks when scheduled charging either to 70/80/100 % the charge has been stopping 3% short and terminating. It seems like the balancing portion is being missed , I have to assume its a connection problem (software) where the car is not telling the EVSE to ramp down. If I...

    MGS5 Trophy Long Range - 3 phase charging ?

    We have a 30 kw supply at 10kw per phase, with the house and two gites each receiving a phase each from a central utility room . The utility and garage still run the full 3 phase. I already fitted a 16A commando socket on a dedicated line from one phase to run a granny ( back up ) charger , so...

    MGS5 Trophy Long Range - 3 phase charging ?

    2nd reply, if this is the case , then why do manufacturers bother putting in 7.4 single phase equipment? There was no price premium applied to mine when ordered so cost should not be a factor. Indeed having two systems is more expensive as opposed to the same generic charger being installed...

    MGS5 Trophy Long Range - 3 phase charging ?

    Actually , that's doubly interesting because we have a couple of gites for which we want to offer EV charging. We have the 3 phase but adding a 7.4 kw single phase EVSE to the garage could cover all eventualities , as well as back up in case the 3 phase EVSE went down . We originally chose 3...

    MGS5 Trophy Long Range - 3 phase charging ?

    I do, lets get married , but only if you have a 22kw cable suitable cable , I knew about the first bit , but not the second. I'm only a pauper with a 11kw cable. I do have a hectare plus of land , do you have tractor and a key? Cue the Wurzels. :p

    MGS5 Trophy Long Range - 3 phase charging ?

    I was under the impression, yes, but only at 3.6 kw max on one phase. Although I would love to be proven wrong. 🤷‍♂️

    MGS5 Trophy Long Range - 3 phase charging ?

    If its the same as the MG4 then its only 11kw charging if its requested when ordering as an original sale. That order goes through to the factory and if like myself go for the orange / SR/LR then you can add on an extra couple of months delivery time. If you are adding on RHD for the UK that...

    New MGS5 LR Trophy for 25K

    Agreed, that was normally my mantra, but due to a merging of the stars meant we had to buy our MG4 brand new. Fortunately one of those stars ( the French government ) said get a new electric car and basically we will pay its first two years depreciation costs. So I now have a two year old car...

    MGS5 Trophy Long Range - 3 phase charging ?

    Thanks , I was expecting a little more resistance , I did say I am originally from Lancashire didn't I. Purely for full disclosure and clarity you understand. :cool:

    MGS5 Trophy Long Range - 3 phase charging ?

    As you say "future proofed " but it will still charge at 6.6 kwh on L1 if its a 32A cable...... just a bit heavier than needed. 🤷‍♂️ We sometimes travel up through Yorkshire on the way to Scotland and have a 11kw 3 phase car, well ? best new mate ........... do you like cheap French wine , any...

    Liquid Cooling System (n)ever active?

    I have the same 11kwh 3 phase charger and , depending on the outside temperature you can hear the pumps running intermittently when charging, lifting the bonnet and the front coolant tank can warm up and condensation can be seen on its inside "roof" especially at the end of the charge. I do...

    Not how I thought today was going to pan out...

    It still does not explain why the vents ( unless faulty ) let in water. Are they not supposed to be self sealing after venting excess pressure . Unless they were also ( not mentioned ) damaged when whatever broke the flimsy plastic shield.

    Screen stuck or black

    I recently had a "update android auto " message come up on the phone, this I duly did. Since then ,now when connecting ,again via cable, its a lot slower to boot up commencing with a black screen then having the android auto logo appear for a few seconds before working . Previously it went...
