Snow mode gives less regen and less initial grunt.

Nah, next year, when the VED goes up again, it'll be, "can we tax it in march to still get it at this years rate" :LOL:

The alarm goes off when you lift the bonnet when the car is locked. I've done it a couple of times, pulled the bonnet release lever, shut the door and locked it, by force of habit, then gone and lifted the bonnet and the alarm goes off and sends a message to the app.

Am I right in thinking that anything connected to the OBD port that receives and transmits data wirelessly can be hacked and data transmitted to the car by hackers. Maybe these "random" occurrences of faults showing up are some sort of external interference.

My mate had a Vauxhall Viva HB with skinny tyres, way better in the snow than my fat tyred Cortina.

Core plug.

Maybe the head unit needs re-activating. Try this. How to reactivate the MG4 head unit. From the main screen, swipe left to the other screen and select “settings” On the settings screen, select “system” from the list on the right hand side. On the system screen, tap “Entertainment system” 5...

What does the miles/kWh say on the trip ? Using the heater on HI and short journeys you could give you around 2 mi/kWh. 2 x 61.7 (battery capacity) = 123 miles for 100% so it is feasible. I'm getting around 150 miles on a full charge currently, 2.5 mi/kWh, short trips with the heater on 28°C...

Do you have an Android tablet ?

I wonder why MG didn't have the option of a SR battery on the MG4 Trophy ? I'm sure there are many people who only do short local trips for the majority of their driving, but would like the extra options that the Trophy offers.

To put it simply, it sounds like it's a 11kW, 3 phase charger, the MG4 can only use one phase, 11/3 = 3.7kW

That's the loss of regen effect when one wheel loses traction.

Alternatively, if the key fob battery is flat, use the app to open and start the car. As a matter of interest, do you not have a spare key fob ?

That's right, the physical key is only meant to open the door, there's no connection to the mirrors or lights. You have to get (sit) in to turn the car on with the normal key (fob). Every car I've had with remote control unlocking has been the same, unlock the car with the physical key and the...

I've had a couple of twitches this last few days with mine, but it soon rights itself when the stability control kicks in.

I wish it had global opening and closing of the windows like SWMBO's MG5 does. :(

Ditto, I can't stand that white screen.

So I assume you turned it off, did it stay off or has it come back on again ?

Once the car is asleep you can't wake it with the app, the only way to wake it is with the remote key fob, unlock and relock it.
