    Running a 12V fridge from MG4 LV Battery

    5 day update, it works well, it is plugged in 220V at the camping and to 12V in the car and so far just works. So all the math and backup batteries are not needed for my case. Thanks though for the various experiences shared, i might need them on an alternate situation if i gun it with no...

    Travel (Trunk) bag set - useful or not?

    I sure hope that would not be the case if it is purposefully built, but the closest my search gets me to are seat belt extenders/risers. So, not this trip, maybe the next. Here's the almost final setup, bags properly overstuffed and all. Still room to slide in some more stuff.

    Running a 12V fridge from MG4 LV Battery

    Reopening this thread, since i think i found a fridge that should tick all the boxes 😀 It runs off of 12V and 240V It has built in protection of the car's battery It fits between the two child seats so does not take up boot space Here are some specs of it and how the protection works. It is...

    Travel (Trunk) bag set - useful or not?

    The bottom row fits well indeed, but if I would go for one more row on top then due to the seats being too reclined it would not fit well. I am now looking if there is some kind of an adapter to 'straighten' them a bit. I can imagine something that clicks on to the rear seat stays/hooks and has...

    Travel (Trunk) bag set - useful or not?

    It is this one: https://amzn.eu/d/hl74Aj9 For me it is amazing, top row had at some point diapers and wipes left and right for both rear passengers 😉 and a coffee kit for the front ones Lower row has first aid and pocket books and small extra toys. Helps when you need exactly one tiny thing...

    Hazards flashing when braking?

    I have noticed the same reflection in the car infront, but i drive an MG4 Trophy. It also happens if i am already stationary at traffic lights and someone passes by me in the same direction as me, but they have a green light. Say i am stopped and someone flies by with 54kmh. If they are too...

    MGS5 safety software fault - recall level problem?

    This makes complete sense with physics, preserving momentum in the motor/generator and there is no brake directly on it's shaft that i know of. I have similar thing in my MG4 if someone in front of me breaks hard at a traffic light and causes me to break hard instead of creep on regen. In case...

    Travel (Trunk) bag set - useful or not?

    Final test done, it fits 3 bags in several orientations, with the floor in the bottom position. I read somewehere that the floor can also be left at home for extra 5 cm depth or the 2 corner blocks removed, etc. but so far this is a great alternative. I would still think of a sturdier option...

    Travel (Trunk) bag set - useful or not?

    Well, i got some time and went to IKEA. Here are some preliminary tests, i ended up getting the green ones home, will fill them up properly, but they seem to fit better in various directions. Thanks for this alternative, hope the WAF is high enough🤞

    Travel (Trunk) bag set - useful or not?

    Do you happen to have a picture of how you arranged them? I might even drive to the local store to get 6 of them

    Travel (Trunk) bag set - useful or not?

    Cheap can be a pro as well, don't get me wrong. If it is sturdy and a nice fit. On the other side, i have an L and XL Samsonite ultralight suitcases that each cost as much as the set, but those 2 together don't fit in the boot. Their price/quality is amazing though and i loose only 1 kg when...

    Travel (Trunk) bag set - useful or not?

    These seem quite nice. I also have some IKEA and random store's bags of similar material, the black and white braided ones. I want to as well test some combos, so if i find a good fit i will post it here.

    Annoying "features" when using a tow bar

    What model/trim is your car? And are you using the same trailer hook as me?

    Travel (Trunk) bag set - useful or not?

    I am looking for actual experiences but also just own opinions around using a travel bag set in the trunk. The one i found has two rows, each with 3 bags of different size and should be using the volume of the MG4 trunk as best possible. That is according to the marketing. Link: Travel bag...

    Annoying "features" when using a tow bar

    So, i also have a 77kw model. Starting to think about a trailer hook box, but would not road trip without the ACC. I have the MG original trailer hook, the ball one. What is the final verict? Does the car auto detect a trailer if i plug in a box? Or, is the electrical plug smart and differs...

    When will MG fix the auto start feature?

    Also, if my whole family is in the car but waiting for me to load more things from the house and drive them, unless i sit in the seat, they cannot sort out the airconditioning or music. So, someone needs to press hard on the driver's seat in just the right place before the car is ready. And...

    MG4 Trophy map update – BEWARE

    I did not know this, thanks. Would we be able to get the raw here maps and see how to wrap them for MG? Would be a tool that is worth building.

    MG4 Trophy map update – BEWARE

    I specifically searched for built in navigation and OTA in a car. Now finally gave up since my city in 2 years is completely revamped (not uncommon in the Netherlands) so now the car navi is useless. Trying Android Auto to avoid being sent the wrong way down a one way street or a bicycle path.
