    Yes, I frequently get time out error messages. Makes the app unreliable,even if he car has just been unlocked and locked.

    Picked up my LR Trophy

    Our MG5 ticked most of the boxes, but our next EV needs to tick them all - otherwise why bother changing? We're only interested in EVs, but they're coming out more quickly now - and some of them must have everything that we need.

    Picked up my LR Trophy

    That's a shame - it ticks most other boxes... We have to do that at the moment, and it's a pain to get spot on. Our ICE is just a button push away.

    Picked up my LR Trophy

    I could easily see one of these being my next EV, but am interested whether the Trophy supports programmable drivers seat selection. SHMBO is driving more these days and it's a bit of a pain keep changing the seat position manually.

    MG 5 - Car "dies" in traffic queue with manual parking brake applied

    And if it's a long wait, put it into park... I never touch the brake button.

    What an excellent design feature ...

    When in use, it goes in it's own zipped pocket in my trousers. The rest of the time it's in a Faraday pouch.

    Traction

    Yes, the traction control isn't that good - so one needs to be careful how to lay down the power.

    Tyre pressure monitor

    In the manual it says :- Note: After changing the tyre position or replacing a TPMS sensor and receiver, the vehicle needs to run at a speed of 25mph for about 10 minutes to correctly indicate the tyre pressure value at the corresponding position. Has anyone tried this out? So far I haven't...

    MG5 Facelift USB music and Android Auto simultaneously

    Yes, it's a fairly brain dead system, as it doesn't recognise folders. AT least it recognises and play flac files, though. I'd imagine that they clash - AFAI it's not meant to be used this way. Music on the phone seems to be the best option, but it's not something that I'm keen on.

    Boot permanently unlocked.

    I use faraday pouches, which seem to work fine

    3 Niggles - Music Stops, Fault Warning When No Fault & Sat Nav Goes Silent

    PFL = Pre Face Lift and FL = Face Lift We had that - IIRC it was reacting to notifications on my phone. I'm afraid that I can't remember what we did to 'fix' it, though...

    MG5 limiting charge to 1.5kW when using Zappi on sunny days…

    My Zappi is 2.1, if that makes any difference. When it happens, check the internal temperature in their menu, and look for the zappi icon on the front panel for overheating symbol. IIRC, it's in the manual.

    MG5 limiting charge to 1.5kW when using Zappi on sunny days…

    The wireless Zappis have (AIUI) a design flaw, in that they over heat when it's sunny. Not in all cases, though - I suspect it depends on the siting. When I had my Zappi installed last year I tried fast charging my MG5FL on a sunny but 17degC ambient day. It soon throttled the charge down to...

    Quirks of the MG5

    No idea - when I put it in for servicing in March they just said that there was an infotainment update to be applied, and it worked OK after that. If there's anything that you'd like me to look up on the car, no problem.

    Quirks of the MG5

    This is fixed in a software update - used to be one of my bugbears, but now the car remembers what it was last set to.
