I used a spare 25m mains cable from my motorhome rated at 16A and fitted a 13A socket for a couple of weeks until I got my Hypervolt charger installing .

I had 'smart' meters installed by Octopus recently. They renewed the earth bonding for our gas supply at the same time. Shortly after I had a Hypervolt 3 Pro installed by a local contractor recommended by my MG Dealer. It was done within 72 hours of getting the estimate & only took a couple...

My 2024 MG5 Trophy LR has tinted rear windows, I bought a spare wheel & kit from the MG Dealer when I bought the car in December 2024. It has Active Emergency Braking (AEB).

I am new to Intelligent Go.....As a matter of interest, should the schedule times listed by the Hypervolt app match those shown by the Octopus app?

Interesting..... I had a similar problem yesterday while trying to add my Hypervolt 3 Pro charger to Intelligent Octopus Go . I could not get past the test charge stage. I emailed Octopus last night & today got a few suggestions (most of which I had already tried). I know my charger works...

Getting nowhere fast trying to get Intelligent Octopus Go to play nice..... I have a Hypervolt 3 Pro, Mg5 Trophy LR and have signed up for IGO. I am stuck trying to add the car/charger to the iOS 18 version Octopus APP. It hangs while trying to locate the vehicle and says the test charge has...

I am glad you got it fixed and at the same time outraged they demanded payment, especially so close to the end of warranty period. I had a sensor failure on a FIAT based motorhome 2 months after the warranty expired. As it had a full main dealer service history I contacted FIAT customer service...

On the MG5 there's a pipe which feeds the rear screenwash in the A-pillar with a joint which can come apart especially if it is freezing cold. I would check & see if your rear screenwash is working. Others have posted photos of how to access the joint on other threads on this forum. It may be...

take a look at this tread https://www.mgevs.com/threads/mg5-wont-turn-off.14975/page-2#post-350154 also this one https://www.mgevs.com/threads/rear-screen-washer-failure.14968/page-2#post-351338 the experience of user @M44LCY may be of particular interest to you in the second link

If the rear screenwash is not working but the front one is that could be an indicator of the pipe coming adrift.

Could be a long shot, but there have been a number of reports on this forum of weird electrical behaviour as a result of water leaks to the driver footwell from the rear screenwash pipe located in the offside A-pillar affecting various electronic boxes. The joint can leak if the pipe freezes...

I am hoping to pre-empt this screen wash leak on my MG5 Trophy LR by securing the A-pillar connection before it leaks. There seem to be at least three 'mechanical' means to do this: 1) cable ties 2) 0-clip which are crimped in place 3) spring clips I have read of a couple of occasions where...

Makes sense thank you. I assumed the car would just charge between 23:30 pm and 05:30 am. Love the car by the way, I swapped it for a 3 year old Toyota Yaris Cross + £3000.

As a novice MG5 owner of 3 weeks I am struggling trying to sort out my off-peak charging. I have a new Trophy LR, A Hypervolt Pro 3 charger and have signed up for Intelligent Octopus Go. I managed for a few weeks with the Granny charger, followed by the Hypervolt charger both at peak energy...

What size is the pipe? Would any of these fit? https://www.amazon.co.uk/Spring-Clamps-5mm-9mm-Pressure-Silicone/dp/B0D8VLV1K3

I have just had a Hypervolt charger installed. I preferred the idea of a tethered charger and wanted to use ethernet to connect it to the Internet rather than wifi or cellular. A local contractor recommended by my MG Dealer was £160 cheaper than Octopus and it was done in less than a week.

I bought a set of these after reading your post, a good fit for my new car and decent quality, thanks for the heads-up.

I have just collected a brand new white MG5 Trophy today ....... settling down to a good read of the owners manual over Christmas. I spotted it on Autotrader a week ago, took a test drive a day later & bought it same day.

Presumably there must be some sort of MG Technical Bulletin describing the Tesla update & its applicability? If so, does anyone have details that we can use to 'persuade' reluctant dealers?
