No worries, before you panic try again. Then at somebody else’s house with your granny charger and if possible someone else’s granny charger too. They are quite sensitive to voltage deviations, earthing issues etc (made that way purposely as you can be pulling a lot of power, outside for quite...

What granny charger are you using and is it showing any errors (can’t remember what the mg one has) but my master plug one has lights on to indicate what’s going on.

Mine has sporadically done this below around 30% at motorway speeds. 1st batch SE SR. I’m currently posting on a thread where my car has tried to do the world’s longest balancing session after me updating the BMS. I’m going to see if I can get it to balance but I do think there is going to need...

Thanks I don’t think this is the same. I’ve had what you describe before in the cold - I assumed it was the battery heater looking after the pack of its own accord. This is an incredibly long balance, which I ran out of time completing due to having to go to work. Something has changed my...

The plot thickens. My estimated range is now higher than normal - wonder if I’ve gained some capacity back…… most interesting. Attached are old module numbers - never took a shot of the new ones (I’d already done HVAC and FICM at that point too). I’ll let it do its thing. Plug my autel in and...

Pass but it is very interesting. I’m half tempted to plug in and make sure the update applied correctly (I’m sure it did as I was fiddling for hours and hours and hours at the weekend). I’ll let it do what it wants later but it’s a very interesting change. Makes me think it’s not looked after...

Approx 1°C.

A normal balance for reference a week or two ago.

You can see where she kept on going - the large peak is where I was defrosting. Will see what happens later but it MUST be down to new SW whatever changes they have made which says to me they know that something needed changing so might be worth ensuring your cars are updated.

Exactly what I’m thinking, it definitely pulled in a new BMS update. I’ll give it a go after work and leave it for as long as humanly possible. Definitely the longest I’ve ever seen it attempt to go.

Always balanced my 4 half an hour drawing low levels. Post update it was going for 2.5 hours … I had to stop it as I was going to work. Is that normal ?

Various parts of the car drop out of warranty earlier. Off the top of my head some examples - suspension 2 years, dash and interior 2, infotainment 3. I may be wrong on some (may differ and I’m thinking of my 4) there is a document on MGs website. Only the main drivetrain parts have full 7 years.

Not wanting to disagree (a battery is a good shout) but those do appear related (not sure if they are saying the car turns itself off though??) but if not those symptoms suggest something ABS related. If anything causes the ABS to shutdown all those features are reliant on it. My OHs MG6 taught...

Yep as others have said. Find a CCS charger and the car will take what it can. Prepare to get slapped with the price though. I paid £0.72/kwh the other day. Not nice!

I’m normally over on the 4 boards and have completed a marathon day of updates. OH has troubles with the infotainment on 21 plate phev. Many of my foibles have been cured with updates over the years. I plugged the HS in an it reports new operating software for the unit but it’s USB based...

Completely theorising… I’m wondering if the lack of BCU affects the car knowing when a bum is on the seat etc (I’d have thought the remote may awaken things but pass). My time has ran out so can’t look but does VDS see anything as I believe it can force outputs if it can talk to modules - obv...

Battled through sips updates etc and r38 (from r33). Anybody noticed the door open bongs have gone ?

I know why the dealers won’t do it unless they have to now. All day in this cold damp urgh. At one stage I took the negative lead off and everything was still on - really not sure of the mechanics of it but it must have got itself in a right knot and carried on drawing from the HV pack. Put the...

Took a good 16 months and it’s really simple for me as we have overhead supplies (quite funny as neighbor actually works on underground for western power well NG. They kept closing the case after the initial look - basically they didn’t really want to do it but Inhad storage heaters put in so...

Ahhhh. Well sounds like you are doing what I would which is leave the car to power down and see if you can get life from it after half an hour. As others have pointed out, if it failed on a specific module and you can get sips running, the module software showed 00000 on the one I had trouble...
