    MG App stopped working!

    It's not really nonsense - lots of apps require you to actually log in once in a while. If you let your phone remember passwords then it is a bit easier to log back in.

    1800mm plaster board just fits

    As a temporary measure it is quite easy to remove the rear seat base so that the seats will then fold flat. Just remember that there is a connection either side for the seat sensors.

    Tesla Supercharger Issue MG5 LR

    I agree with you but, as this thread started 3 years ago and some people in the dealer network are still spouting lies, it is clear that no-one that can do something about the situation is reading here. I do love my car but I will be quite wary of buying another MG.

    Tesla Supercharger Issue MG5 LR

    There really ought to be somewhere that we can report that sort of nonsense. It gives the MG dealership network such a bad name. (Well done for doing the update yourself)

    150 kW chargers

    I don't public charge often but my FL Trophy seems happy with 150 and even higher chargers. It can't take more than about 85kW but it works OK. Have you had the charger update and/or the Tesla update?

    Sudden Increased Range

    What sort of driving are you doing? If you are around town at slow speeds it could very well be telling you the correct numbers. If you drive at 70mph for a while I expect it will change dramatically.

    MG5 would not take rapid charge

    Its worth trying locking the car before starting the charge. It doesnt really need to be locked but locking the car will make sure the cable is properly locked into the charging port.

    How hard can it be to get a new 12v battery fitted?

    but 14.6 is the voltage of the charging circuit. It doesn't tell you anything about the battery. It does tell you that the 12V charging is working OK.

    One pedal driving vs KERs

    Energy recovery is the same but KERS 3 requires more accurate pedal control but less moving you feet over to the brake pedal. Keep checking the figures when on ACC - My MG5 Trophy definitely recovers energy while on ACC but the MGS5 is a completely different car so anything is possible.

    So after 18 months, I finally work out how to dim the sat nav screen on Android

    Thanks so much for posting this. So easy to do but so difficult to find.

    App control of temperature

    I had a problem like that a year or so ago. The fix at the time was to go into the climate section and move the temperature slider up or down a degree. For me this was fixed ages ago and it has been fine since.

    Highlighting unread posts

    Is it just me or has the software stopped highlighting the posts that have unread messages in them. Up until recently the titles were in a bold font if they had unread items. Is there a correct place to ask questions / make comments about the system? Sorry everyone, I just noticed that I had...

    Mg5 long-range 12V not charging

    Are you by any chance having trouble with the radio? If so then disconnecting the 12V battery for a couple of minutes might fix both things. By the way, I think the 12V only gets charged while the car is in ready mode or charging. Once the main battery has stopped charging it also stops charging...

    MG5 motor fault - is this common?

    I think you've been unlucky. It sounds like the car thinks there is something wrong with the HV battery and if you've been given the choice of a refund I'd take it.

    Horn going off whilst driving

    Yes! At first I thought I was imagining it but it happened 3 or 4 times. It hasn't happened since.

    MG5 Charge and Heat?

    Interesting, I wonder if it is only AC charging that interferes with the heating?

    Why are motorway services fast chargers so unreliable?

    I've had my FL since Jan 23 and I'd never noticed that. You learn something every day.

    Wishbone bushes knackered @35 months and 17k

    That wasn't the case when I had a catastrophic failure recently. They sent a local firm to recover me to safety (a petrol station on the A2 which to be fair had food, drinks and toilets) and then sent the same company a little later to recover me to home. They did come themselves a few days...

    Wishbone bushes knackered @35 months and 17k

    Even the AA use local recovery services if they are busy.
