Further to my other posts about mileage...did a round trip of forty minutes or so today, heater only, no AC...found to my surprise I was mostly in EV mode, even at 36 mph on a 40 limit by-pass, and was registering very low mpg. At one point the dial was showing 83.6! Then varying between 65 and...

I'm thinking of joining the wireless jet-set by buying a Motorola MA1 adapter for my Moto G9 phone. (yes I know it's ancient). The only cause of hesitation is my phone is only 4G whereas the MA1 is 5G. I don't know enough about these things to decide if it will work. Any help out there?

Does anyone know if it is possible to use a USB dual 'splitter', or whatever it's called, to connect my usb stick with music, and automatically connect my android phone?

Although the inbuilt satnav is reasonable, it drives me up the wall with its 'Recalculating'...'recalculating'! I wouldn't mind if I was driving in some obscure backwoods, but not in well established cities, towns etc. My two Hyundai satnavs were the best I've experienced, so maybe I'm too biased.

Can anyone explain, in words of one syllable, how to register with iSmart. I enter my email, password, confirm password then wait forever for a verification code. I don't need help with 'binding'. Yet! just account help please

Now that the chilly mornings are with us I'm having to use the heater more. Unfortunately the heater doesn't dish out much heat for quite a few miles. In the 'good ole days' you could fit a winter thermostat, obviously not so in modern cars. So, is there any tricks to get more life out of the MG...

Adaptive cruise control is an option I've always yearned for when looking at new cars, but having now experienced it I'm not sure I like it. In town traffic within 30/40mph zones it's excellent..brakes and accelerates nice and smooth, although sometimes needing a nudge of the left centre button...

I've noticed the decorative skin/film over the shiny black parts of the steering wheel are bubbling; and in one area the edge of the trim is breaking up. Before I make a complete idiot of myself, can anyone confirm that this 'film' is or isn't permanent, and could be peeled off, like, say, the...

Has anyone any information on using the USB music system? I use it more often than the radio and can carry out most functions except for how to play recordings consecutively. The on-screen symbol, (looks a bit like the Eternity symbol), only allows Repeat or Random. I would like to select an...

All this talk about the MG3 satnav is doing my head in. How can I tell if my car has up to date maps. Does anyone know the current update reference and where will it show me if mine is out of date. Lastly, does anyone know if MG has issued any updates at all, for any part of the MG3 Hybrid+.

My MPG indicator is stuck on 61.4. Has been for a week and doesn't respond to 'Long Press' reset. Any ideas?

This a quote from Autocar MG3 review. It’s not unusual for cars to better their quoted acceleration times by a little when we test them, but rarely do they beat them by this margin. MG quotes 8.0sec for the 3’s 0-62mph sprint. That’s already significantly quicker than the hybrid versions of the...

Do any of our wise forum members know how the charging system works? Let me explain...most of my driving is around town, does this mean the auxiliary battery gets very little charge? In other words, like the old 12V batteries needed a good run now and then to fully charge, is it the same with...

I've been experimenting with the steering wheel controls and a new pop up appeared...Power of Information. I was on the Mway so couldn't concentrate, then it went off. Anyone seen this?

I've messed up big time with setting up an iSmart account. Now it sends me round incircles asking for different verification codes, passwords etc. I want to start from scratch. How can I delete everything and start again?

Two combined topics, if you please. One, I used up the puncture repair fluid within the first week. (see previous post). I don't intend to buy a refill after reading the comments on these forums, but does the compressor bit still work as a pump and pressure check. Two, the pressures recommended...

MG recommend particular types of coolant and screen washer fluid in their manual, but Halfords don't recommend Glycol (OAT) coolant for the MG3 Hybrid, and I can't find anything about 'Original MG Motor screen washer fluid. Comments please.

Has anyone experienced their MG3 Hybrid windscreen frequently misting up? This morning, weather wet and lousy, the screen misted up every few minutes and I had to use the front defrost button, (although I was surprised how cool the air stream was). As soon as traffic allowed, I touched the...

Can anyone explain, in simple terms, how to operate adaptive cruise control. I know what it does, but the actual operation as explained in the manual is very long-winded. By the time I get to another section I've forgotten the first.

Just wondering about the battery system and how it works. I notice that if I'm listening to the radio, or even tinkering with the settings menu, a notice pops up telling me that I will run the battery down if I continue. Well, that's ok, my other cars did the same. But, on the MG3 Hybrid there...
