    Liquid stains from vents?

    Errr.. I think this may be limited to your car! I have a 5 always use the AC, am very OCD about muck on my windscreen and haven't once noticed anything coming through the vents. There are also 9 other MG5 company cars at my place and nobody had mentioned this and we have a very close mutual...

    Ouch, did the collision avoidance help/reduce the bump?

    Lane Assist Trying To Kill Me!

    I was taught to leave a 2 second gap, but I was also taught to look as far up the road as possible to anticipate what the cars in front do. If you are in a tunnel with no pedestrians and you can see clear road you aren't going to anticipate the car in front coming to a complete stop. I'd say...

    My 12 month review of 2022 MG5 LR exclusive (pre facelift)

    I'm 5'10", I also have a problem with the comfort of my seat, I tried having the seat on its highest setting and bolt upright and there was very little space above the top of my head. I now have it low and further back a bit inclined and I think I could probably wear my Panama hat!

    DAB RADIO

    My understanding of the issue is the manufacturer of the radio head units or the DAB section of it went bust, so there is no chance of going back as somewhere in the supply chain a key bit doesn't exist. Why they can't go to a different manufacturer and say "We have a hole this big in the...

    Android Auto

    I'll give that a try, my toddler doesn't need anything plugged in so they are free.

    DAB RADIO

    My colleagues have the facelift 5 and say that they have DABs built in. Delivered from March this year.

    Android Auto

    Is entirely possible either the port is faulty or the cable has a manufacturing fault. I've had better luck with the fabric weave covered cables, they tend to twist less. Also the ones with the 90° USB C plugs get bent less.

    Android Auto

    How old is the USB cable? I've been using AA in various cars for 6 years and it equally sensitive to loosing connection for all cars I've driven. I must have gone through at least one cable a year. I would go for the wireless option but I like to charge my phone and I've filled the other USB...

    Mk1 v Mk 2 MG 5LR

    Blimey, I had read somewhere the 5 was capable of 100kw, best any of us had seen was 75kw. We've only had the 5s from October.

    Mk1 v Mk 2 MG 5LR

    I went to the Gridserve Electric Forecourt near Braintree on Saturday as I've temporarily lost my workplace charging. My Pre-FL topped out at 73kW around 50% SOC and was down to 7kW when I returned from Costa at 92% SOC. 55 minutes from 21%-92% on a 350 kw charger. No more than 6 of the 22...

    DAB RADIO

    I'd say the radio receiver is the thing installed in the car not the cheap USB box stuffed into the glove box!

    Issue with my nav screen mg5 (non facelift)

    Not an MG specific problem this one, I went through tonnes of cables with AA in my old SEAT. AA also seems to have got less reliable over the last 5 years.

    HARDwire a dashcam?

    Nextbase do a hard wire kit. It has fuse base that you insert into the fuse board then the fuse that was in the board slots into the kit so you still have a fuse circuit and the camera can draw power. Have worded it badly but is simple.

    New MG5 EV owner - A few simple questions

    I get the feeling the software was produced by someone who doesn't drive or hates cars! So many things where a simple tweak would make the cars so much more user friendly.

    New MG5 EV owner - A few simple questions

    None on the Pre-Facelift I don't recall seeing them on the spec list of the facelift, that has the 360° camera.

    New MG5 EV owner - A few simple questions

    3. Has been covered on another thread, can't find it right now but in the last month or so. I tune the radio to dead space on the am band and I just get a faint hiss of static whilst AA kicks in.
