    Great day out with your MG? Post up a picture ?

    We own the bottom one, worst design ever : difficult to hold when pouring, I use to burn my hand in the process and not easy to fill !!

    Advise please (long term parking)

    As summer is coming all I'd do if t was our ZS is to check the status of the 12v now and then via iSmart. Keep the charge of the traction battery between 20 and 80%.

    Charles Warner Lincoln - MG Dealer Discussion, Opinions & Experiences

    We live in the West and that's how it works, sorry to say. I was made redundant with 200 others after 45 years, not nice !

    Flood water damage resulting in full battery replacement

    The foam rubber trapped between the front doors and the frame always comes free in the ZS, I've had to poke mine back more than once. Strange that clear, clean water appears to still be present in the photos as if it happened just before the photos were taken !

    AC charge rate slowly decreases to 1kw

    I was just going to say check for any hotspots on your leads/ plugs.

    Ev Tariff

    If you stay with BGas, and have BGas smart meter and, an Hive charger with their EV tariff you could get your kWh rate down to under 5p from mid-night to 5am. and just under 9p to run your white goods. Some will say IO from Octopus is far better, that it maybe, but BGas is working for us.

    Water ingress from the charging port causing HV battery shut off

    Research before you buy I guess is the take away from this.

    Software Updates

    You may be charged for non-safety or 'cosmetic' updates. As Miles has told us, an update can take up to 15 minutes to install, and one at time the costs can soon mount.

    CCS Charging not working

    The only thing you can do is seek out another dealer and stay cool ! Sure it won't make any difference, but discount the 12V battery for a few minutes.

    MG ZS newbie questions

    Wireless CarPlay adopts can appear to lag, which could impact on your satnav. I would suggest you try a good USB cable first. I've also been driving since the 70's, and cars back in the day were not computers with wheels and sorry to say the more complex they get, the more that can go wrong...

    Any positive reviews MG ZS EV

    As with all forums, people come here with issues., those without them say away. We have had our ZS TLR since the back end of June last year, and the day after taking delivery had a holiday booked for Cornwall. We used a ABRP to manage our changing stops, (but can be done just as well with the...

    MG ZS newbie- hit and miss- is it me?

    Until you get some driving history under your belt you won't get a good estimate on the GOM. and yes you will be down about a 1/3 in the colder months. But then in the summer we had an estimated peak of 316miles with our ZS TLR, so swings and roundabouts. Try pumping ups the tyres. 41 psi...

    Should I Purchase an MG ZSEV With High Mileage (78K)?

    I don't think you are legally allowed to change to LED lamps if they have not already specified, could be an MOT failure. We had the drivers and passenger windows not tinted but UV filmed on our facelift ZS TLR, made big difference.

    British gas/Hive/change charger?

    No point to be made John , for me and others charging for the 5 hours is 4.95p/kWh with 9.95p/kWh to run our white goods. Works for us. But to keep you happy, I agree that Octopus are the best ! ?

    A NOT SO short update on our British Gas Hive EV charger installation.

    As a British Gas customer I plug my car in at 6pm and it works for me! After all we are only talking pennies here, so not a great deal, but as Tesco says.... :)

    British gas/Hive/change charger?

    Oh John, BG charging is one of the cheapest, if not the cheapest out there ! 4.95p/kWh Already have a Hive EV charger? You could get a 4p/kWh saving on all your EV charging with Hive SmartCharge if you get your electricity from us. Combine this with our Electric Driver tariff, and you...
