The latest Powershop EV day plan still shows a shoulder tariff. Even if the wholesaler doesn't have a shoulder rate what is to stop the retailer having one when the smart meter uploads are done every half hour. The supply charge has now gone up to 222.91 cents/day from 187.00 cent/day. Retail...

My rates for the just renegotiated EV Day plan are the same but I don't have controlled load. Supply charge though is $1.87/day & I still get the 0.014 FIT. Peak is only 5-8pm Mon-Fri. Shoulder & off peak are the same. There is discussion among the retailers of actually charging for feed in...

Never been below 5% but the car has never reduced power or made any comment other that the standard message at 20% & 10%. The 2.3% buffer from the so called 61.7% usable to dead empty probably gives a bit of crawl distance. I haven't been game to try it though.

There is a specified list for the 2 year & 4 year service. It used to be on the MG website but you can ask for it when you book the car in. It also includes all software updates but most of the service is checking things. Mine is due in early September & I will be getting them to rotate the...

All the sources I have checked say the percentage is 20.9 but even if it was 19%, an extra 1.9% is hardly likely to give you a big energy boost.

A forum friend on another site lives in China and has been there for over 15 years. He rarely posts stuff now as every time he mentions how he can get things done so easily there etc he is jumped on by a bunch of others who seem to believe everything that the politicians tell us. The human...

260 kPa in Winter when tyres are quite cold will keep the TPMS happy. When it warms up in Spring just return to 250 kPa. I check mine every month or 2, there is no set routine. If I forget the TPMS will remind me.

Interesting. The air is 78% Nitrogen & 21% oxygen so it must be oxygen or the other 1% of other gasses that permeates through the tyre wall or valve. That said the pressures stay at their set level for a long time & it is usually only with changes in the ambient temperature that eventually...

Yes that is a major bulge. Hitting some standing water at speed and the undertray could easily be ripped right off as has happened to members of this forum.

I just looked at the Essential Energy supply charge for residential connections BLNRSS2 ToU Sunsoaker & it is $1.3776/day plus GST so $1.5154/day from 1 July 25 so the retailer margin is added to that. Where did you get $2.7791 from?

Powershop have told me the EV day plan I am on is changing on 1 July in line with the electricity price increases everywhere. The big shock is the supply charge that is going from $1.10 a day to $2.2291 a day. That is $69.10 in a 31 day month without using any electricity at all just to be...

The right rear on mine is the same. Our cars were sold only a few days apart as far as I know and from the same shipment. I wondered if it was the TPM itself but a check with my very accurate analogue gauge confirmed it loses pressure faster than the others. I have a twin piston high speed pump...

I don't buy new cars often and have had the MG4 just shy of 2 years & I plan to keep it for 10 years. Apart from a few software niggles it is a great car. It is comfortable, plenty of room, has great handling & performance & the range is fine even though a lot of new models have bigger batteries...

I charged the car to 100% (long journey mode NMC battery) today & took a couple of screen shots from the iSmart app when it got to 100%. It reported charging at 6.5kW up till it got to 100% at 13:55 then reduced to 5.7kW at 13:57 for 2 minutes then to 4.5kW, 4.3kW & eventually to 0.00kW at 14:15...

The single phase inverter/charger in the car will supply a maximum of 6.6 kW DC to the battery. My ZJBeny EVSE reports delivering usually between 29 & 32 Amps to the car depending on the voltage which fluctuates based on the amount of supply and usage from the grid. The legal variation allowed...

Ute manufacturers seem to be having a competition as to who can create a vehicle with the ugliest front especially the grille, followed closely by some SUV models.

The MG4 charges at 32 Amps AC. At 230 volts that is 7.4 kW. The cars internal inverter/charger has a maximum input rate of 6.6kW DC. The difference is losses due to heat and other factors. If your circuit breaker and residual current device is 32 Amps it is at its limit and is likely to trip...

There was a discussion on the MG4 forum a year or so back on battery balancing. My MG4 has a 64kWh NMC battery. At the time a number of posters were adamant that balancing ONLY occurred at 100% charge. The thing is that I'd seen the screen telling me it was balancing at 80% so I decide to...

Slow is up to 11kW & fast above 11 to about 43kW & Rapid 50kW and above.

Nope, the wheels are still at the bottom not on the roof.😁
