    Positive Vibes for the MG4

    Two ways with everything Rolfe.? p.s. Do you use this expression in English? In Norwegian, this means the right and the wrong way of doing things, and then in the sense that the wrong way is either too much or too little of something and right is the right amount. And thanks for your kind...

    The MG4 Trophy that I used to love...

    As we are in to the theme of electronic overlords, here are some lines that might describe what often happens on snowy or wet country roads (all roads where I live) while driving my MG4 Luxury (yes this did happen yesterday... too). Yesterday my MG4 tried to kill me and my wife again, LKA...

    The MG4 Trophy that I used to love...

    That would probably not happen in many many years to come as road conditions are far to diverse for simple sensor systems to cope with, that is why we as drivers need a fast, easy and momenterly working solution to disengage LKA and other stuff that might kill us in certan situasions. It does...

    Consumption Graph Not Working

    Of course, it is only about programming, most of what is not good about MG4 is about errors in, incomplete or straight up stupid choices with the programming. Incidentally, I have no faith that SAIC/MG will change their practice until another Chinese car manufacturer with much better software...

    Consumption Graph Not Working

    And? Is that a problem? Lets say my car in todays road and weather conditions uses 190w/km (19Kw/100km). Lets say I need to drive 213km/132ish mls. That is 190x213=40470w or 40,47Kw. Or roughly 60% of my cars battery capacity. To be honnest in this case a qiuck one would be 200x200=40000Kw or...

    Exactly, and that is why tsedge's wish is just a dream. Or you can buy a Tesla and get linear %.

    Positive Vibes for the MG4

    I opted out of the dealership 17" winter wheels and bought 16x6,5 Zax ev531 gloss gunmetal lightweight wheels, and put Michelin x-ice north 4 205/60 r16 studded winter tyres on them. Not cheap I admit but I will save 2000kr/150£ each time I change winter tyres as that's the price difference...

    Positive Vibes for the MG4

    On a positive note, I feel better and better with my MG4 Luxury/Trophy in winter, the anti-spin and anti-skid system is very good. With good (top 2) studded tires on 16" rims, it is very good to drive in varying winter conditions, it's almost like I would say the worse the winter conditions, the...

    Consumption Graph Not Working

    Because it's the logical way to do it as the metric system is scalable, we use L/100km in metric and the equivalent to that is Kw/100km. Your miles to the gallon works backwards because that's the only way the imperial system could make sense.

    Consumption Graph Not Working

    A thing to notise, the graph does not behave the same showing km or mls. It seem to work as intended in km but something is not right in mls. Whatch my photos from today of my LHD Luxury/Trophy R46.

    Steering wheel message.

    I do get the red steering wheel and beep without braking, just have to grab the steering wheel firmly to shut it up (or else the car starts to brake). What I described in post 24 does not act like the drowsiness warning even though the red steering wheel symbol is the same. Oh (edit) only while...

    Steering wheel message.

    When I get this message it brake firmly (not slaming them on) and the red stering wheel with the message comes on, and yes it's in that order. Mostly happens for me when meeting another car when aproching a 20 ish? degree right hand turn (left hand driving). I always have taken it to be the ACC...

    MG 4 charge door latch not working when it’s cold

    After a closer look, I don't think silicone spray is enough for the lock of the charging door, because the thinner silicone does not prevent water or snow from accumulating inside the locking mechanism. The way the locking mechanism is designed, snow that is on the outside will be pressed into...

    MG 4 charge door latch not working when it’s cold

    Let it be and heat and dry the lock parts with a hairdryer (or park it in an under ground carport for a bit), when you can. Then apply a some silicone spray/grease in to the lock (do not spray on the paint) and on the charge door rubber. Should fix it for a bit. My charge door froze open today...

    MG4 Roof rack

    The same is true for the rest of EU/EEA. Seems to be only in UK they slipped up and forgot to state roof load.

    MG4 hasn’t charged overnight again…

    Caught myself doing this yesterday, window switches are raised above the suroundings and they are so easy to briefly touch without noticing. Before I thought I managed to open the rear windows with only pressing on the surrounding area of the switches, now I have noticed I can activate the rear...

    MG4 hasn’t charged overnight again…

    My experiences with the scheduling through the app have been a bit hit and miss, I think this is because the app and the car have issues communicating with each other. So I had to check the app several times to make sure it the car did not reset back to the schedule used last time I charged...

    Heating problem

    Do not have the service sheet, it was read up to me when I collected the car after service. P.S. the car did have a working heater, it just stopped working on a whim (especially if I used the iSmart app and engaged hvac from the app). Sometimes working and blowing heat sometimes not and blowing...
