    X Power Vibes Fix?

    Maybe you're right but I must ask I’m feeling a bit of doubt from you now Brick top?? You seemed a lot more optimistic before! I agree maybe I have false hope now that I lacked before but until I’ve exhausted the avenues I have I’m not going to give up !! This is exactly what MG want for...

    X Power Vibes Fix?

    My dealer Ferntree fully MG have gone above and beyond for me! Dropped my car off to them on Monday for a week or tw. So far they have replaced the wheels and tyres with a new mg 4 (some of the stock 2024 models come with different 18” wheels same size as the X-Power). Hasn’t fixed the vibe...

    X Power Vibes Fix?

    I’m not sure how to explain mine as yes there are times when I keep pushing past 120km at it feels and yes gets worse other times it smooths out like it did before problem is or maybe a blessing is that if it constantly gets worse there may be better case for legal action

    X Power Vibes Fix?

    Yeah I figured after the chat I had with my dealer the first time I saw them MG had recognised the issue and will fix it .. Seems like it was all BS and the fix is MG rep and MG in general is jump though hoops till you get sick of arguing with them .. Customer care number just rings out all...

    X Power Vibes Fix?

    Just had convo with my MG dealer today MG rep from MG said ohh the tyres are low so I need to change the tyres and get a road force balance to rule that out before they can move on to the next test!! Basically I said to my dealer what the hell is a road force balance and why haven’t I been told...

    MG4 X Power Tyre Upgrade

    Not to bad here pilot sport 5s are almost always getting $150 to $200au off if you buy 4 tyres .. Got my 4s way back at buy 3 get 4th one free.. I’ve noticed though a video on the new ( I’m guessing UUHP 4S replacement) pilot sport S 5s doubt they come in the size I want and besides there...

    MG4 X Power Tyre Upgrade

    This is the thing i get price I really do super fast super cheap !! BUT For the lack of maybe a few hundred pounds or $1000aud on top to add some better tyres would it of really broke the bank on people looking to already buy a cheap super car ( of sorts ) in reality ( mine was a ex demo so it...

    MG4 X Power Tyre Upgrade

    Ohh agreed but the 245s may be just a little added bonus to traction in both wet and dry .. Soon my stocky rubber is nearly trash which is quite pathetic when I’ve just clocked 17500km now .. kinda YAY upgrade SOON ! Frankly i put it down to not necessarily bad tyres but essentially the wrong...

    Xpower, the right choice?

    If i was to make a argument to a wife is the AWD is safer ( if the tyres were better on the X power ) than the SE but i would still say the Xpower is just a 1 or 2 trick pony that while fun and never ceases to put a smile on my face the SE isn a smarter buy over all!!

    Changing to MG4 XPower ?

    I love my X power ( before i start to comment on what is wrong over the stock LR version ) range range and range the X power is not economical in the sense of it you can drive in eco which helps but why when it basically makes it a heavier less ranged standard MG4 ( not including the LR...

    MG4 in Australia

    Ive seen a few at under the 30k mark NEW which to be honest anyone not snaping one up at that price is quite crazy !! in my opinion 30k for a EV is a no brainer with 10 year warranty Are the MG4's the perfect car NO but to be honest if your paying the same amount for a I30 or corolla ( if not...

    MG4 X Power Tyre Upgrade

    Not sure what the rules are in the uk but to my understanding in AUS your allowed change within 5% of height difference so 245s on the 8 inch wide rim is acceptable because going wider reduces the rolling diameter so the speedo will show 1-2km/h lower than normal.. And to be honest that’s b...

    MG4 X Power Tyre Upgrade

    Ohh I’ve been known to drive somewhat lunatic ish ?.. I know the pilot sport 5s are going to be much better just wondering if the added inch all round will give it a little better grip and if it can or has been done without issues.. Dealer/ service manager said he will lower my car for me so...

    Charging MG4 issues

    Just throwing this out there to see if anyone has tried or thought about trying 245 width tyres instead of the 235 to get a little extra grip .. Had this conversation with my MG dealer / service manager and was just looking to see feedback from others Service Manager did say it could be done...

    Xpower Chinese competitors

    The Viking can disagree with me but fact is the zeekr x is built on the same chassis as the Volvo ex30 ( it has a specific something something chassis name geely uses for all its EV cars under its banner ) and comes in at a cheaper price so in essence it really is a poorer man’s Volvo. The X...

    Xpower Chinese competitors

    Yeah I know zeekr it’s part of Volvo and the first zeekr coming to AUS is just a Volvo ex30 with a different body as the chassis is part of the geely brand who also owns Volvo .. Zeekr is kinda a poorer mans ex30 still coming in at 60-70k aus .. Xpeng is coming to soon that may be a cheaper...

    Xpower Chinese competitors

    Even the X power clone from Byd is coming in at a higher cost 310kw awd .. Be interesting to see the next gen X power that hits the roads is like X power styling is pretty good now but a few slight design changes inside and out and decent refinement to the chassis and handling at a similar...

    MG4 X Power Vibe/Hum 65 to 75mph

    Can’t be tires or wheels otherwise the vibe would get worse the faster you go .. Yet if it stops when eco is engaged it can’t be wheels or tyres otherwise it would still be there same with people saying it smooths out after 120km 130km if Something is out of balance it has to get worse the...
