    Tyre pressure warning inaccurate

    Apologies if there's already a thread for this, but I couldn't find it in a search. Has anyone else had this issue? I've just inflated my tyres as the warning (rightly) reported them a bit low. My problem is that it's still warning me they are low when I know for a fact all tyres are inflated...

    Zs ev charging

    About what? ?? I don't have a Tesla account, so I'm not sure what you mean by "now you can". Not sure why I would need to use Tesla chargers anyway.

    No, I have my MG back, now

    Zs ev charging

    The most my ZS Trophy LR has ever showed me is 260 miles with 100% charge, even before setting off and has never improved on that. I do not drive in a power hungry way, either.

    Wheel trim top coat peeling off.

    It's an odd one for sure. Having said that, I have always avoided jet washing alloys or trims as I learned that lesson many years ago. Not at all saying that's what caused your problem, just that pressure washing only briefly a d bit even too close or concentrated has always been able to ruin...

    Seat belt alarm

    I had the same issue when moving my daughter's stuff. Had already packed the car and set off with an hour's drive ahead, but there was no way I was going to unpack at the side of the road just to fasten the rear seatbelts. It wasn't a problem in the end as the warning sound stopped after 5...

    Zs ev charging

    Indeed, die hard petrol heads might not want to change, but it will come, whether they want to or not. I haven't changed how I drive at all, although I would say it's naturally got a little smoother. My mindset has evolved a little, in that how I charge on a long journey varies according to...

    MG/Tesla comparison

    My bad, just looked it up quickly as I'd been told I would need an adapter ?? Does that mean I was misinformed and you can use CCS with a Tesla in the UK? Additional info. The Tesla sat on my driveway for a week as they couldn't collect it until a week after my MG had been returned. I left it...

    Zs ev charging

    I do all of these kinds of things, but never achieve a mileage anywhere near that...but here's my caveat: for everyday driving and shorter commutes, I don't even take any notice of what range I have because I know I can just plug in at home. It's the longer journeys, i.e. Lancaster - Southampton...

    I believe it's the SAE J1772 adapter

    Blimey, the EV gods are favouring you! ? No idea how it's showing such a long range, but wish I could get the same out my ZS

    MG/Tesla comparison

    Hmmmm, how did I not notice that during my real world experience of having a Tesla for three weeks? ?? It doesn't matter, just what it seemed like to me - as I say, could just be perception, which is most likely flawed ?

    MG/Tesla comparison

    Yes, I understand that, and you're free to disagree ? but I'm not really making a claim. I haven't done a rigorous scientific test or any detailed maths just expressing my subjective perception. Of course, on paper a Tesla is more efficient - but not all Tesla's are equal either. Perhaps I...

    MG/Tesla comparison

    That's true. There's a big difference between an EV that's designed from the ground up and one adapted to a car originally designed for the ICE.

    MG/Tesla comparison

    I've just spent three weeks driving a standard 72 plate Tesla Model 3 while my MG ZS was in for repairs for damage after being rear-ended. It made for an interesting comparison between the two cars which others might find interesting, so here's my personal experience: Range: My MG ZS is the...

    Out of date navigation

    Whilst navigating on on holiday, the maps proved out of date when they showed me driving through empty space on a relatively new road near Northampton. I tested this against Google maps and Waze using Android auto, and they were sufficiently up-to-date. I'd like to update the maps for the built...

    In Praise of the ZS

    I would never risk leaving it that late to to charge tbh. It's not range anxiety I get, but charging anxiety.

    I would turn regen off completely to drive in snow or very slippery conditions, if it were possible
