    Android Auto

    There's another thread on Android Auto woes. I eventually figured the cable needs to be of an adequate spec for the data rate. There's a link to a cable I found which is certified up to 5Gbps in the post here: https://www.mgevs.com/threads/my-android-auto-problem-solved.5213/post-192764 So far...

My phone is a Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Connecting using the supplied USB-C cable was hit and miss but once connected all seemed well. For about 20 mins then the connection dropped. Unplugging at the car port...

    Mg 5 rear heated windscreen

    Shame the entire HRW trackwork isn't heater. All that would be needed to achieve that plus the ability to use it as an aerial as well, would be for power and ground to be via small inductors (stops RF disappearing into the power wiring) and one end also fed to the radio input via a small...

    Rear seat seatbelt issue. Fragile electrics.

    Right. We had a good start and brownie points for the dealer from whom I'd bought the car. I used the "Contact us" bit of their website and outlined the problem. Within just half an hour, I had a phone call from them and got an email addy to send photos. Sent photos and less than 24 hours...

    Rear seat seatbelt issue. Fragile electrics.

    By way of a warning that the "done up" sensors on the rear seatbelt sockets are possibly a little fragile. I realised I was only getting two of the three rear seatbelt idiot lights coming on for the couple of minutes self test at car switchon. A process of elimination confirmed it was the...

    Mg4 trophy sales drop like a stone!

    Well, it's advertised with "decent control" I wonder if it's decent enough to include descent ?

    Did a stupid thing !

    I'm firmly convinced there should be at least a door sensor on the charging port, a prominent idiot light, preferably accompanied by a loud bong (or an MP3 recording of someone yelling "careful f###wit"), triggered by preparing for motion with the charging door open. H'mmm. Magnet, reed...

    MG5 Brake failure

    Many years sinceupon I had a brake issue in my Renault Espace. There was a split circuit valve that failed. It was common to both parts of the split circuit and we lost all foot brake. Managed to survive with a gingerly applied right foot, loads of predictive driving and judicious use of the...

    How long can I leave MG5?

    Aye. It was in a locked garage and, of course, wouldn't move without the key.

    How long can I leave MG5?

    Not actually a question, more a little reassurance really. I had been asking myself that question before departing these frozen wastes for 7 weeks in Australia. Here's the answer. I charged the car as usual a few days previously and timed my running around so the SOC was around 80% I made sure...

    Nothing! What I do know is there was someone posting on Faecebook that they'd used these in their MG but I don't use Faecebook messenger nor post on there.
