Being new to the world of EVs and the MG5 Trophy, does the home wall charger (EVSE), apart from "charging" the HV side, charge the 12v battery as well? Or is it a case of the HV battery giving up some of its charge to the 12v one? Sorry for the dumb question lol.

Brand new car, granny only. Well that's the case with our new 5 Trophy being collected 2mrw.

Looks like I'll be using Android Auto for the first time ever and relying on good old Google maps. Wonder what MG's thinking was behind no live traffic on the inmfotainment system? Oversight, cost? Does the facelift built-in system offer alternative routes in the evnt of a road closure...

Agree totally, it has to be speed related at low speeds.

"Around town" - should have said "very few journeys over 30 miles round trip" but we do a 200 mile round trip six times a year. As for ACC, this is where it fell down on our Jeep Cherokee - 70mph in lane one on a dual carriageway, approaching slower vehicle in lane one. We slow down to 60mph to...

Basically yes. Using the torch on your phone, disconnect the negative (- ve) terminal. Make sure it's tucked well away from the positive (+ ve, usually red) cable that remains attached to the battery and it's not touching any other metal part of the car. No need to disconnect both because...

Our other car, a 21 plate Megane RS Line, has cornering fog lights and here's one way they work apart from when the steering wheel is turned. Scenario - 30 mph road and wanting to turn left into a side road. Slowing say to 20 mph, indicate left, no n/s fog light on. Slow to 15mph, still with...

Prior to getting our 5 Trophy on 30th December 2022, I've started reading the on-line user manual (written by a 5 year old?). A few questions: 1) Adaptive cruise control - had it before on a Jeep, good idea. But can it be used as a normal CC without the adaptive bit? 2) Does MG Pilot offer a...

Coming into this thread with similar problems, in particular, Direct Line. Three half hour phone calls and no joy. 5 Trophy is due to be collected on 30.12.22, so trying to sort out insurance with current insurer of my Megane, Direct Line. Spoke to MG dealer who said this a common problem and...

As for how to reduce the freezing issue........ Until the 5 Trophy arrives next week, my Renault Megane and Renault Trafic are using neat Halfords "-20 concentrated screenwash" plus 0.5lt of meths in their 4.5lt washer tanks. No problems in Shropshire last Thursday when it was down to -11 degC...

New 5 Trophy arrives Friday 30th of this month and the Ohme Home Pro charger goes in the day before. We like the Ohme for it's digital display but to get the best out of it, it needs the car to have API (Applicatioon Progamming Interface) and currently MG, according to Ohme, don't seem to have...
