    MG4 keeps aborting AC charge

    Feel your pain, in the early days there was a shortage of CCU's in the UK, in the end took like 2 months to do the fault diagnosis and another month to get a replacement CCU, early 3 phase CCU's seem to have reliability issues that's for sure. I felt that the garage tech had his hands tied...

    So there was a recommendation on this website somewhere but cannot find it again, but, I bought a 2air carlinkit and it did not work with the MG4, then someone stated that this dongle may work Wireless Android Auto Adapter, Converts Wired to Wireless Android Auto, 2025 Upgrade, Plug & Play...

    MG4 keeps aborting AC charge

    I have had a CCU replaced and have done 10k with no problem so I'm guessing the replacement CCU is sound

    Is my MG4 miles/kWh trying to gaslight me?

    Remember, those figures are actual charge figures from the wall socket, not the car which (wall figure) will be higher due to charger inefficiencies (7.1kW in, 6.5 kW into the battery).

    Is my MG4 miles/kWh trying to gaslight me?

    So I have noted all charging and usage since I got my MG4 Trophy (2022) and this is the actual electric used from the charger, not the GOM, so in summer it is around 3.5km/kWh and winter it is around 2.5km/kWh (all averages and I have done 13,000 miles). Shorter journeys in the winter not only...

    Would you have another MG after the MG4 ?

    I think that I would go for an EV6, MG have been poor with their customer support with repairs and software glitches, it all seems to little too late. I had a CCU replaced, that took 2 months to sort out, software updates to fix an AC charging issue. Now the car is running ok and has been for...

    Parking Charges whilst Charging

    I am talking about the 7kw chargers, not everyone is at the £80k for cars, and not everywhere has rapid chargers, and not everyone can afford a wall charger, so the only way to charge is use the 7kw destination chargers in car parks. And to be honest if you are wanting to get more people to...

    Parking Charges whilst Charging

    There are many places that I have encountered this, Bude (Cornwall), Holsworthy (Devon), Whitstable (Kent), North Walsham (Norfolk), all money grabbing leeches that don't give a fig about ripping off EV owners. Not only that, as these are 7kW chargers the carpark charges make the expensive kWh...

    Parking Charges whilst Charging

    I am not sure if this has already been posted but it does get my goat when I want to charge my car and have to pay parking fees because the stupid charger is in a car park. If an ICE car had to pay to refuel there would be up-roar so why are we having to put up with this. To that end should...

    Drivers side seal/foam damage!

    Hi, I have had the same issue, partly due to the width of the sill and I'm tall and the seat is a long ways back, easy to run against this and the resulting wear is as shown above. Not leaking so getting on with it and trying not to rub against it. Sort of a design error.

    unreliability survey

    Adding to the previous, I have had issues with AC charging (software fix), DC charging (CCU replaced but took nearly 2 months to sort) and issues with LKA and other software problems, so I agree with the reliability issues. Shame as I now have a car that I enjoy driving but the journey to get...

    Not proud of it, but hit 0% battery range a mile from home and made it back!!!!

    Life on the edge, might want to put pressure in your tyres though as that'll effect your miles to go!

    Interesting consumption figures - is there a second gear thing going on?

    I have been monitoring the power taken from the zappi charger plus others and the odo on the car (MG4) over the period of a 1.5 years. What I have noted is that there is a power drop between the power in and the power charging, so 7.1kW in and approx 6.4kW into the car (zappi charger) so there...

    Forced change of Dealer.

    Just to confirm now after contacting Howards WSM, it appears Howards is not the dealership any more, but the dealership has been taken over by Drive Vauxhall. Contact number is: 019340218075. At least there is one in Weston-Super-Mare again so it is local
