    I saw a warning on this from a video by James & Kate the Cleevely mobile repairs team. So fitted seat covers/protectors. I can see that edge of the drivers seat always gets ruffled.

    MG5 Tyre Valve caps

    Thanks I did wonder about them sticking I didn’t know it was a thing, I’ll grease them up with some silicone. Really appreciate the heads up . I wonder if a thin wrap of plumbers PTFE might help . Or maybe I should bin them I find some decent rubber ones, don’t fancy them getting the stuck on.

    MG5 Tyre Valve caps

    Thought I’d share a pic of some new tyre valve caps I got from AliExpress. Nice finish , solid metal with an internal sealing rubber washer. For £2.22 I thought they were excellent value. Currently 52% off. I’ve got a rear left-hand tyre that is slowly losing pressure and so have been keeping...

    I have an EVCC-02 with the part number 11313393 which some have had updated to support Tesla chargers, but I'm still trying to find an MG garage that has done it. My local Chiswick MG said it'll cost £360 & a new part despite me telling them it can be done. MG themselves said try a larger dealer...

    Tesla Supercharger Issue MG5 LR

    Good idea, but I have an MG service contract for them, I wonder if you can move dealers. Hi Tips, could you let us know what Dealership that is that did the upgrade? I've phoned a few & they don't know about it & the MG bulletin still says the 3 main model numbers, min is the same as yours...

    Tesla Supercharger Issue MG5 LR

    So, I took my MG5 to Chiswick MG for its third service and first MOT today. I asked about the Tesla update, which was supposed to be done last year, but it doesn’t seem to be working. After telling the service guy about this, he quoted me £80 for it, but he said he’d ask the service boss. I was...

    I tried ours on some new Tesla Super chargers in Kingston John Lewis car park & got an error the car wasn’t compatible, I did ask on the last service if it should work & they said yes. Guess I’ll ask again at its next service in March.

    AA Cover free or not?

    Thanks Gomev, that’s what I thought, weird MG Chiswick sales & service seem to know nothing about MG assistance, the AA we’re very polite & would have saved me so much time if they had told us when I first called we had two breakdown cover contracts, I had to ask her to check the second time, it...
