Do people find that their mg 5 has more power left than indicated at low charge? For instance charging to 100 percent from 9 percent took between 44 and 48 kWh (depending on losses). 48 delivered by Ohme so lose 10 percent ish. My battery takes about 55 kWh once degradation is accounted for...

Hi guys happy new year (nearly) I want to replace my 12V with a varta 075, it’s a little bigger than the oem battery. Has anyone had any problems putting in a slightly larger dimension battery or does the fixing adjust? Many thanks Jae Looking at some other posts, sorry I missed them, an...

Hi everyone Happy festive season I just wanted to ask what rapid charging speed people are seeing on the pfl 5 Mine tops out around 50kW these days but used to get up to 75+. Doesn’t seem to matter what charger, seems to be since I had the Tesla update, though it may also be the current...

Hey everyone Quick question. I have some crusty coolant appearing around the expansion tank cap on my 5. Picture below. Anyone had anything similar? Doesn’t seem to be a leak as far as I can tell

Had my third service today with Evan’s Halshaw Grantham, they were pretty good and the service was about 100 quid including a brand new mg4 loaner. ( nice car not as comfy as the 5) The only fly in the ointment was the total denial of the Tesla update. (Even mg customer services denied it...

Does anyone per chance have a list of error codes for the 5? Thanks

Hey guys Couple of questions After an alignment does the steering angle sensor need to be rest on the 5? My rears are out of line I assume as they are fixed this is just the way it is. I have had the alignment done twice and it still feels slightly out, nothing damaged, pulling a tiny bit...

Hi all I have a fault code but not other issues It is U17FD(83) apparently power steering related I can’t find a description anywhere and just wondered if anyone could throw any light on it? Many thanks

Hi all I am about to replace the front tyres and I have assumed we need to have a 96 load rating. However on the forum I have noticed some people looking at tyres with a lower rating, down to 92. What do people think can we use a lower load rating as the car isn’t terribly heavy? Looking for...

If you are around Lincoln then the loss of Charles Warner had been a bit of a blow. I used Vulkan in waddington recently and they were brilliant. Needed a replacement radar and some other bits after hitting a deer, they were happy for me to supply parts. They hunted around to find other...

I am trying to understand more about my EV and the battery. When I look at car scanner I can see cell voltages and max min voltages etc loads of hv battery info. What should I be looking for in terms of identifying issues? Just after a little guidance as I want to understand more about the...

Highly technical solution while waiting for my ohme install. :) works perfectly

Just a quick question. My heater doesn’t seem to blow any hot air unless set directly to high. Is this an mg5 quirk or do I have a fault? Thanks in advance

Hey everyone happy monday So after hitting a deer, in my 2021 pfl lr and replacing part of the bumper an issue has cropped up. My radar keeps failing its adas calibration. The garage are checking the wiring for anything loose but the likelihood is the unit was damaged. Does anyone know if...

Well after having the car for a whole week, I hit a deer 5am in wales …..sigh I am not allowed nice things However, the damage wasn’t awful, acc sensor housing and some lower grille damage. Charging port surround cracked and a little bumper damage. I got off lightly and the 5 proved to be...

So my new to me mg5 is throwing the attached codes, only as pending and then they will change to archived, no warnings are coming up on the dashboard. Anyone else’s seen this? Should I be worried or is this the jank inherent in the software? Just a touch concerned :) Quick update I ticked...

Hi everyone So far loving the 5 and learning to live with an ev, it’s only been a few days. I am heading to wales at the end of the week, couple of hundred miles each way. Not worries about charging and range but I am having a couple of seat issues. I get a wee bit of discomfort in my left...

Hi Everyone I am new here so please be gentle :) I have just bought a 2021 lr mg5 to replace my extremely old and thirsty Mercedes. I am slightly like a kid at Christmas with a mix of excitement and anxiety as this is my first ev. I used a few at work but haven’t lived with one. I wanted to...
