    Keyless start? Anyone got it working?

    I've been faffing with this one for a long time. I've tried lots of different mobile phones and lots of different steps in lots of different orders. Including, as instructed by the dealership, unlocking the car, sitting down, buckling the seatbelt, pressing start then pressing the brake pedal...

    Poor design... a cautionary tale, always turn your wipers off

    I've been fairly happy with the lacking ignition or start/stop button... that is, until the below happened: It had been raining the previous evening, so I'd had the wipers on and didn't think to turn them off before I got out of the car. The next morning the car was covered in snow so I...

    Accident due to TJA/ACC use.

    My MG4 does this all the time. After a recent update the car applies the brakes sooner, so it doesn't roll back as much. Every so often it still rolls back at traffic lights or in traffic on the motorway. I'm super cautious about it now though.

    Aggressive Turtle / Low Power mode after last dealership visit

    Yup! I charge the car to 100% and let it sit connected for an hour then a day or two later I drive over to the girlfriends, stay a few days then back. I usually arrive home with around 7% however, since the updates it's not managing to get me home anymore.

    Aggressive Turtle / Low Power mode after last dealership visit

    Doubtful, each time I've done the journey I've charged to 100% and left the charger on for at least an hour after it's reached 100%. My driving habits haven't changed but the software has.

    Aggressive Turtle / Low Power mode after last dealership visit

    Mine used to be this way too before the service and updates, now it starts crapping out at 15% and the turtle appears at about 7% even if I've still got 20+ miles range.

    Aggressive Turtle / Low Power mode after last dealership visit

    Does anyone else have any bother with Turtle / Low Power mode? Since a dealership visit for a service and various updates my MG4 seems to be going into turtle / low power mode earlier than ever before. For example, I could just about drive to my girlfriend's house and back on a full charge. I...

    UK domestic socket charging

    I've been using my MG supplied granny charger to charge my MG 4 for years with no problems at all. My house is too far away from my council rented parking space and there's nowhere to put an outlet without a bollard being dug into the council's land. And I'm defiantly not going through planning...

    Keyless start? Anyone got it working?

    Just out of interest... when's the last time your phone died? I honestly can't remember the last time it happened to me. And surely your partner (don't call me Shirley :ROFLMAO:) would have been shared the digital key right?

    MG iSMART app / car connectivity

    It's not just me right, the MG iSMART / car connectivity is somewhat lacking? 9 out of 10 times the app says "The remote control instruction failed, please try again later" It's been driving me insane for months and the MG head office people just keep fobbing me off like "You will need to...

    I had an accident and my car is not starting

    When I was in the military, we started seeing new technologies with sensors, data logging and safety system galore. However, the military always understood that in some situations, mainly wartime, you didn't want a whopping great big generator to stop working every 4000hrs if it wasn't...

    Keyless start? Anyone got it working?

    It's 2024 and I just don't want to carry keys anymore. I made my house keyless, I made my office keyless, I want what I paid for, which is to make my car keyless too. It's not about the speed or the ease of use. I like to live at the forefront of technology and do things because I can. MG said...

    Keyless start? Anyone got it working?

    See Keyless start? Anyone got it working? *the screenshots are from an older version of the app but the process is still the same, as is the outcome.

    Keyless start? Anyone got it working?

    No dice, I've tried 3 Android phones and 2 Apple phones all with the same result. They connect to Bluetooth and can open the car doors but "key not detected" shows up whenever I sit down Maybe... but, I bought the car to go completely key free as I don't use house keys anymore.

    Software update

    This has really cheesed me off... the design of the product (infotainment system) has been forcibly changed and a portion of the usable screen has been removed. MG suck.

    Whistling noise from rear spoiler (merged)

    My garage already tried tightening the spoiler and the rear lights all to no avail. I'm guessing they're proceeding with the under tray as they've ran out of options.

    Software update

    There's no LKA button on the drop down menu on mine ?‍♂️ I'd much prefer the top portion of screen back please.

    Keyless start? Anyone got it working?

    Still haven't managed to get this fixed. The 3rd time it went in the dealership said I needed to use the app, get in, sit down, close the door, put the seatbelt on and then press the pedal. Hint... it didn't work. When it went for the 4th time a few weeks later the service manager called and...

    Whistling noise from rear spoiler (merged)

    Mine's been in the dealership 4 times for a high pitched whistling noise at the back. When I picked it up this week they said that MG had formally acknowledged a problem with the rear under tray. A new bracket and longer bolts have been added to the list of available parts. However, they're on...
