    MG4 rear camera

    Thank you, the last two pictures are the most helpful, I don't expect it to be rocket science. Will take lots of pictures. Just hope it lives up to expectations.

    MG4 rear camera

    Had a good look around and can't see anyone here having fitted one of these so I've ordered one. £114 on the day and AliExpress have to add Vodka And Tonic to it, so total of £137 - let's hope it's not money down the porcelain. Don't expect an update before December 23.

    Zappi has me stumped

    Excellent well done another happy Zappi ? I'd expect 26 or 27 kw in a four hour charge but of course if there is unused solar generation before or after the night time charge and the car has capacity to take it you'll be topping up with ☀️ Just be aware your Zappi will need a surplus of 1.4kw...

    Zappi has me stumped

    No warranties are implied or expressed - but those settings have been good for our MG4 for over a year now and 19,000 miles. Also don't be confused by the slider with the leaf symbol that I have set at 60% in my picture - it's NOT charge the car to 60%. Leave this at 60 or 70% but don't worry...

    Zappi has me stumped

    The settings in the screen shot earlier will charge both 00:30 - 04:30 at full power AND in daylight hours if you have enough surplus solar power that you would otherwise be giving away

    Zappi has me stumped

    Absolutely, it will work as well. But @dsr mentioned he's got solar panels as well and doing it this way will have the car charge from excess solar in the day as well as during the GO period. Admittedly excess solar is unlikely for the next four months unless you've an array 2-3 times the size...

    Zappi has me stumped

    Remove the schedule in the car Set the Zappi like the attached picture. Waiting for surplus is not an error. Make sure that the car is plugged in! It'll sit there till 00:30 and start changing. Good luck.

    First service - experience of charges out there

    First service - experience of charges out there

    Did edzackery that, asked for a printout - in fact they offered. They also asked would I like the AA cover extended!! of course! So two things to watch out for and make sure they are done. Also depending on the dealership, you could be waiting for a number of hours for SW updates, they won't be...

    MG4 STANDARD (SE) MY22 heated seats Upgrade?

    I would be interested to hear further updates on this when there is some progress.

    Installing heated seats

    Yes, and perhaps the switches would be OK on the flat area of the centre console ahead of the cup holders?

    MG4 Trophy 1year on

    With you. Broken windscreen, many months to recalibrate, Autoglass, LKA always originally off (now default on following mega SW update session). Sounds like a parallel universe. I've asked others with new cars, not MG but ICE, yes they have a form of LKA and dislike it. Our ritual start car...

    Issue with AC charging/New CCU fitted (Phase One SE LR)

    You rcvd a max charge rate in four hours with those numbers - good. No need to check the car. Correct not enough surplus solar generation. I believe the standard defined for AC charging requires a minimum of about 1.4kw to start charging. If your surplus is less than that the Zappi will not...

    Frustrating faults: MG4 SR

    For one reason or another our car has been to the supplying dealer possibly as many times as yours, a few times it was given updates including the recall and also when I was looking for an infotainment update. They always said they didn't pick what updates to apply, the system told them what was...

    Installing heated seats

    The car has a 12v battery and electrical system just like any other car you may have come across. Any car accessories are connect to this. The traction or high voltage battery cannot be got at fortunately by us eager amateurs. The heaters cannot take much power else we'd toast our delicate...

    Installing heated seats

    Yes the vid shows the seat coming out and then the base cover is already off and you don't see it go on again. It's not rocket science, just depends how brave / competent you are. Try to find a generic video on removing / replacing car seat covers. I'm fairly certain that the MG4 is no...

    Issue with AC charging/New CCU fitted (Phase One SE LR)

    Oh and it's worth looking on the display of the Zappi to make sure it's showing Eco+ - ie that Comms between the myenergi cloud and your unit are OK

    Issue with AC charging/New CCU fitted (Phase One SE LR)

    You're essentially doing and expecting the right thing. I've been caught out once by the stop all on the Zappi app and concluded I'd just fat fingered the app. Set it back to Eco+ and it should be OK. Why not add a temporary 15 minute slot on the schedule at a point in the day when you can...

    Installing heated seats

    Might as well use simple heated seat covers then? Just watched the video in the link, there's a reasonable overview of the work involved, this kit even includes rings and pliers. They do suggest you allow a day to do it. It's still more of a job than most people would tackle though.

    Installing heated seats

    The under the seat covering heater is something I've considered for our SE but I'll probably never do it. I have removed and replaced seat covers before. Prior to going that route, find some videos on how to remove / replace coverings. It'll be seat out of the car, you'll need a nice large clean...
