Equalisation success. My MGS5 is now 8 weeks old, Time for battery maintenance. A previous attempt to Equalise the traction HV battery failed, with no apparent reason I could find. 2 weeks ago I attempted the equalisation with the battery at 15% on home "OHME" charger, probably didn't let the...

I also had issues with Android Auto, it seems to work OK, but I got thoroughly fed up with Google maps showing every time I started the car, I've now disabled AA on the car, I can easily turn it on if needed for perhaps Waze or What3words on a longer journey where I need guidance. I tried...

Exactly this happened to me a week ago, but by the time I'd noticed the tailgate open (NO Warning bongs) I'd driven around 100metres and was on the slip road of the Salisbury ring road dual carriageway at a busy time, having to stop and get out to lower the door as it was half open, lots of cars...

It's all very easy did mine a few weeks ago and the car was collected a week ago. Gone to Bristol to be auctioned. Just follow the instructions and you'll find everything eventually happens. Left my car reasonabley clean, removed all the normal junk from the car. About 40% charge, enough to...

Umpteenth update on my adaptive Cruise Control not always switching off using the appropriate steering wheel button. Today at last and after threatening to bounce it back as not "fit for purpose" I had a reply as below. The problem is no longer dangerous or a surprise to me as I'm fully aware...

Thanks for the reply Miles, doesn't sound a grands worth of additional cost, but your final paragraph sums it up to me, profit 😂👍!

So @Miles Roberts CG, why such a hefty price tag on EV heat pumps, if they are basically using equipment already installed, or is it a lot more complicated than you suggest?

A very interesting article @Anon70 , as you can probably tell, I'm a big fan of tech, saving energy and therefore money, but as @tsedge refers to, they aren't for everyone, but if the option were there, I'd definitely go for it, as the article says, non heat pump equipped traditional resistive...

Of course @tsedge, all you say is spot on, especially the space saved under the bonnet by not having one, also an EV heat pump comes into play more efficiently during colder weather, heat pumps (I have a ground source heat pump running ALL of our hot water and heating needs at home) they have a...

https://www.autoexpress.co.uk/mg/367452/new-mgs6-ev-offers-plenty-space-and-tech-under-ps40k "All models are well equipped, but upgrade to the Trophy model and you’ll find high-end kit such as a panoramic sunroof, head-up display, heated and ventilated seats, 11-speaker stereo and 20-inch...

I'm sure you are right @tsedge, it needs to be a reasonabley healthy discount as with my S5 to tempt some to pay the £620 each year. The additional £425 a year, is enough to deter some like me (effing mean 😂) I think favourite to keep it under the £40k retail trigger or persuade our government...

The S6 has the same generic design as the S5, but looks good. It does have a few nice enhancements, like ventilated and heated front seats, a useful decent size "frunk" seems to have a sunroof in the video, but not sure UK will be getting it as with the S5, shown everywhere with a sunroof, but...

I believe it's the retail price which determines the tax band and as I read it, whatever you manage to get in the way of discount, makes no difference to the Vehicle Excise Duty (VED) paid, known as the Expensive Car Supplement, if it's over the threshold at full retail it's £620 instead of...

I agree with @tsedge but my focus has turned away from the IM range for various reasons and focused on the S6, hoping it will be even better ironed out than it's predecessors. I absolutely love the ability to switch off by touching a couple of screen buttons most of the annoying Euro NCAP...

I get the same waring on occasions, but the battery is fine on a closer look. My MG4 was faultless for 2 years, so I would have expected the S5 to be equally ironed out, but sadly it's not, the S5 is much nicer to drive than the MG4, if it weren't for the fact it's such a nice car and at an...

That has happened to me several times and very likely lots of others, not on a motorway, on ordinary A & B roads, it obviously sees something which appears dangerous, but its a false alarm. I'm becoming rather scathing about MG, My S5 is lovely to drive, excellent value so long as you don't pay...

What effing PDI checks? I'm convinced MG's don't get a PDI check, just a quick clean from a low paid foreign worker, it's probably another way to save a few quid!

ANOTHER UPDATE on adaptive cruise control not always switching off with the steering wheel switch. Nearly 3 weeks has passed and apart from an automated response to my original email, I've had NO "real person" response from MG Consumer Services, That is in my opinion POOR, a simple...

Yes is is in line with most manufactuers I beleive, when leaving the car for a longer period, ie airport car park, I always ensure battery is over 50%.

Sounds odd, maybe there's someone on this forum who can help! If not, ask a main dealer, but my honest impression, is they are more driven on meeting sales targets than helping the people who make those sales targets happen.
