    MG4 Rumbling and vibration

    If it still happens when you swap the wheels front to back, something might have knocked the steering/suspension geometry out of alignment. Wouldn't take a half decent garage or tyre fitting establishment long to check that. Or even a dealer if you have deep pockets...

    Impending delivery

    Best I've seen driving around Milton Keynes with our "roundabout every half mile" nonsense is around 3.4 or so. At the moment, with a little spirited driving, it's usually around 2.6 but in the colder months, when I bought it, I was struggling to get above 2.3 even being gentle with the thing...

    MG4 Problems

    It's really flakey. Took me a couple of months before I managed to get a proper connection. I actually didn't do anything beyond moving my router to the window sill. It must need wifi for something, at least for the initial connection. It's all so vague tbh

    Impending delivery

    I'm sure you'll enjoy the XPower. I was out and about this morning in mine, had a white van (isn't it always?) trying to get naughty coming off a roundabout on an otherwise empty dual carriageway - three seconds on the not-so-loud pedal and it was a dot in the rear view mirror. Got mine early...

    No to One Pedal driving

    This is, actually, not a bad idea. It'd always be pretty fresh in mine because I use it a lot, in MK most of our roads go through fields and wooded areas and we get insect splats like you wouldn't believe! But, when I bought my Focus ST many moons ago, the washers weren't working at all (had...

    MG4 Spotted! : Was it you?

    Ah right. Makes sense. Didn't know that since I got the Tesla first...

    Public Charging - what do I need?

    Heh. I put one in my car after reading on this forum about all the issues that could be solved with a Windows style reset. Haven't needed it - yet ;)

    MG4 Spotted! : Was it you?

    Only one Tesla app as far as I'm aware. The charge option for non Tesla's is not that easy to find. You have to use the little pancake menu icon on the top right then select "Charge Your Other EV." I don't know if you need to have a payment card registered before it'll appear - I already had it...

    Had the Dreaded 12V Battery Drain Overnight

    If you have to stop at the side of the road in an unlit location for a short while, leaving your lights on makes sense. Some cars had a parking setting, you selected the side you wanted the lights to stay on with the indicator stalk. Haven't seen that for a while. But, you certainly don't want a...

    MG4 X Power Roll Call and mods.

    I still have a couple, CB rigs that is. One small handheld unit and a mobile rig, up in the loft somewhere. Haven't even looked at them in a couple of decades. Got loads of CD's as well ;)

    MG4 Spotted! : Was it you?

    Better with the app though. It'll tell you how many free chargers there are at that site helping you plan your charging stop.

    Switch added to accelerator pedal to activate rear lights.

    There's no reason they couldn't have a graphic showing brake light activity on the main screen. It would be helpful, to alert drivers at least. Tesla does it!

    Anyone wash their car today? ?

    Already? That's a bit ridiculous. Are the pipes in your part of the world like a sieve or something?

    Failed air bags deployment during accident

    Ouch. That's not good. Hope everyone was ok. Would you expect front airbags to deploy in a side impact? I don't know if the MG has rear curtain airbags. Thankfully, I've never been in a situation where airbags were needed (except on a bike and that didn't have them!)

    Driver Side Dash Rattle

    Sounds silly but make sure your sun visor hasn't detached itself at one end... Took me a while to work that one out :)

    So count me in for the 12 volt discharged battery problem

    I had my 2005 Prius for 7 years, went through 3 12v batteries in that time :/ Worse car I've ever had for batteries!

    So count me in for the 12 volt discharged battery problem

    EVs and hybrids have very low capacity 12V batteries, they don't hold a charge for long if there's any sort of parasitic drain. All they're intended for is suppling current to monitoring/unlocking systems and starting up the electrical systems then the cars use the traction battery to run...

    What car did you have before the X Power. ?

    So long and thanks for all the FSH

    I bought one for the MG. I don't drive with it, because I don't need it. But I do use it if I need to just move the car a few times - having to mess about with the belt becomes a nuisance. Every other car I've driven just has an alert, the MG is the only car I've had that prevents you driving...

    So long and thanks for all the FSH

    I can't move my car without the drivers seat belt engaged. It just refuses to go into gear, forward or reverse. I can't. I've tried all sorts of things. Sometimes I have to move it on the drive but I have to put the seatbelt on to do it. Just won't go into forward or reverse without it.
