AGM just means absorbent glass mat. It is used as a separator between cells. With a standard lead acid battery the battery acid sloshes around so AGM are used in motorbikes and things that get tipped upside down easily. It just means the battery acid won't slosh around and AGM batteries are...

It's just a maintenance free lead acid battery so it could be replaced by any the same size with the appropriate AH rating. A deep cycle battery is best as it is designed to be depleted at a more linear rate and then recharged from any point again including a very depleted state. A battery...

I'll post a photo when the bracket has been installed on mine. Australia is a much smaller market with so far about 3500 MG4s on the road. The fix would seem to be pretty inexpensive so good to install it on a few here than thousands in the UK. Tech companies use a similar philosphy. When I...

That looks pretty good to me. I wouldn't worry about that. Strange how some look almost perfect and others are hugely distorted

Check out this thread. The bulletin is there but dealers don't seem to know about it. My car is booked in for the fix. MG4 in Australia

I have been in contact with Geoff King MG and they did not know about the bulletin either. They rang me back an hour of so later to advise that the bracket was on order and will be here later in January so I have the car booked in for the part to be fitted on 31 January 2024. So if you have not...

Many thanks. I'll give Geoff King MG a call tomorrow. I have copied your post so can email them if they don't know. I am pretty sure they don't. When I lodged a warranty claim via email to MG Australia I did not even get a response which is poor but seems typical. At least I have the record of it.

That is interesting. When I took my car back to the dealer on 4 December 2023 they only had an email from MG saying the issue was known and a solution was being developed and not to replace any parts. My assumption is that while the fix had been specified they did not yet have the parts and...

Good reminder. I'll get on to the MG dealership next week. Mine has been a scoop for some time. I wrote to MG Australia & said I was lodging a warranty claim after I took the car in I reckon about 6 weeks ago & was told they were on to it & would advise a resolution in due course.

I can understand Tradies requiring Utes and also those living in the regions and everyone with some land from a couple of acres and up. I don't understand urban dwellers who have a dual cab ute with a tray that can hold bugger all. A single cab ute can generally carry up to a tonne but more...

CCS2 has been legislated as the standard for Australia since 2020, is the European standard and probably other countries so the US Tesla system is likely to only be the US/Canada standard. CCS may be bulky but it is robust and will take the knocks well I think. While the Tesla system is...

That could be true and especially as Tesla has reduced the price of its lineup recently. The thing is that the MG 4, BYD Dolphin & GWM Ora have opened a new door to potential EV buyers who found the Tesla range just too expensive. BYD & GWM have opted for flasher interiors & software but very...

Turn the LKA sensitivity to the lowest level. Yes it can be a bit annoying but the comments like "My car is trying to kill me" are over the top and out of context IMHO. Almost every new car has LKA these days and almost every brand that has a forum has the same amount of LKA complaints. Some...

MG4 is now the largest selling EV in Australia knocking the Tesla model 3 off the top slot for the first time in November. That is a pretty outstanding result as it has only been on the market since August Electric car sales November 2023: MG outsells Tesla with one key EV model Mgoz try an...

I have an LG G6 which was their flagship model when launched in 2017. Bought new in 2019 and I charge it every night to 100%. If i miss a day it tells me I should leave it connected so it can do its daily backup. It does not have a replaceable battery & it still holds charge for 24 to 48 hours...

That's the only thing I could think of as well. When I originally set up iSmart I got a couple of messages and deleted them in the App but the car must have received a notification that the messages were there however I had already deleted them so the User screen says there are none. Just poor...

I checked and there is no travel plan present in the Satnav. I sent one from iSmart & it appeared. I deleted it but the message with the red dot is still there. Why I don't know but at least I know what is supposed to happen now.

My old ICE Mitsubishi had a space saver spare with a smaller diameter than the main wheels but it didn't matter. Max speed was 80kph. I used it twice in 225,000km & it got me home & to the tyre repair shop easily enough.

I don't have a travel plan that I'm aware of but that is a good thing to check. I've use the inbuilt Satnav a couple of times. I'll report back

That is the first place I went to. It says No messages. This is where the iSmart app is also accessed and set up.
