    So long and thanks for all the FSH

    It would be interesting to try reversing a bit before driving forward to see if that gets around the no drive without the seatbelt. In Aust, you aren't required to wear a seatbelt when reversing, not sure how wide spread that rule is ..... T1 Terry

    It'd smell bad in the cab then :poop: There is pump out mob that does the Murray Riverlands area in South Australia that claims to be number 1 in number 2s ..... and another slogan plastered across the back of at least one of the trucks "You dump it, we pump it" T1 Terry

    A little bit weird (mi/kWh increased to 9)

    After using the MG4 V2L function a number of times, my consumption went up to 28 kWh per 100km and guestimate range of 180km ..... it is slowly returning to an expected range and consumption, so the guessing is up to the driver now :LOL: Freaked the wife out when she had to drive back to...

    So long and thanks for all the FSH

    The seat belt thing, more often than not, opening and closing the drivers door sorts that out .... I think it's more a door switch problem. The auto high beam, the only time I find it annoying is on quite country roads, the reflectors on the white posts set it off, so I turn the headlight to...

    One bottle does the lifetime of the car, can it be drained from the indicator can for use in the next BMW? I'm guessing it isn't in the maintenance book for BMW servicing, factory filled, should never need to be top up ..... T1 Terry

    V2L power wash

    I guess it depends which resistor is used in the V2L, the 470 ohm resistor would allow plenty of current for the motor start up. where the 2k ohm resistor would not ... T1 Terry

    MG4 - Post crash repairs query - Pyro-fuse

    This member is in Australia, second hand parts are slowly making it onto the market but a complete crashed MG4 EV with very low kms on the clock can be bought relatively cheaply at the salvage auctions ..... so no real money to be made parting it out ...... If it hasn't been marked as a...

    Sleeping in MG4 [merged thread]

    From sleeping under a tarp hung over the Norton, to a 3 man tent for 2 people, to a Kombi .... well 3 Kombis actually, a fold out camping 4 person tent on a 6 x 4 box trailer, to a Mazda 3500 mini bus converted to a motorhome, to a Hino 7 mtr bus converted to a motorhome, to a 29 ft Fuso coach...

    Sleeping in MG4 [merged thread]

    I guess it depends where you are, 42°C over night can be a tad uncomfortable, so can -5°C ... maybe it's just an age thing .... but yeah/nah, not happening for me any more ...... the 2" of rain over night and 125km/h winds we had for the last 2 days makes the thought of a tent not quite as...

    Sleeping in MG4 [merged thread]

    I think the link to wiring in a switch (and fused relay) to the DRLs is the best solution. No getting out of the car in the cold and rain, no problem if you forget to turn them back on, it's not illegal to drive without them, and I can leave the system on with the temp set for the dog when he...

    Lord Lucas, the Prince of Darkness, they even have a part number for a bottle of the smoke that escapes from every Lucas wiring harness ...... unfortunately the adapter to suit the more common wiring harnesses is NLA ....... I remember the Norton had a rather large Zener Diode mounted in a...

    MG4 - Post crash repairs query - Pyro-fuse

    Under the centre console there is crash module, unplug that and it all comes good. There are people who can reflash these modules rather than pay out the big $$ for a genuine replacement. This bloke has used a different model front wheel drive MG EV to repower his 928 Porche, but I believe the...

    Sleeping in MG4 [merged thread]

    Remember that, especially when you upped the voltage to 18V, 2 x 12V batteries let the smoke out of the little motors, but a 12V and 6V battery in series gave them quite a boost, but the standard control did get rather hot, but there were performance controllers complete with brake control ...
