Highest mi/kWh achieved so far ?. Amazing what a descent of Sutton Bank rewards you with! For some reason it seems I forgot to record the figures after the ascent ?

I've run into a little problem with getting ABRP to work with OBD2 data (using a VLink MC+) over Android Auto and was wondering if anyone else has had the same issue. Simply using ABRP with my Android phone (Google Pixel 8 Pro) works just fine, ABRP allows me to select my car and I can see SoC...

I'm looking to buy an OBD2 dongle to use with Carscanner (Android) but I have some questions (sooo many questions....) I hope can be answered here please? I want to display the OBD2 data on the infotainment screen, so: Firstly, is Carscanner compatible with Android Auto? If not, would I be...

Has anyone else run into this problem?: If I have my charge limit set to 100% and the current charge is between 80 and 100%, the car charges just fine (using Zappi and solar power (eco+)). However, if I log off from iSmart, when I log back on to it, it has reset the charge limit to 80% and has...

Does anyone know whether MG have produced manuals for the latest versions of the MG4 yet? I've had a good look around MG's website and grilled a couple of main dealers, but no one has seen any yet. If anyone sees any sign of them, can they DM me please, and I'll try to arrange to get hard copy...

Has anyone else experienced the sat nav display remaining static whilst the voice gives the correct directions? I set a post code into my satnav this morning and started the navigation. A mile or so down the road I noticed that the satnav display showed my location as still being at home. The...

Can anyone suggest an alternative to the 3M self adhesive pads used to attach dashcam brackets to the windscreen? Every dashcam I've had always succumbs to the same problem every summer, in that the adhesive of the pad fails when it gets hot in the sun. Leaving aside permanent adhesives like...

I seem to be having a real brain failure whilst trying to plan for if I need to use a Tesla chargepoint (if there's one near) whilst on holiday. I've downloaded the Tesla App (called Tessie?) and have made an account (I think!). I don't see any option for charging though, whether with a...

As an exercise, I'm going through Rev 2 of the MG4 manual identifying the differences from Rev 1 (I'll be posting my findings later). What I've found so far though, is that several illustrations have been updated - but only to change the RHD screens to LHD!! The basic information is the same...

Warning to owners of orange MG4s who were thinking of cleaning their cars today. Greenfly love orange! I decided to take the opportunity to wash the car today as there wasn't any direct sunshine. Big mistake, first I found my first stone chip (?) and next I had a swarm of kamikaze greenfly...

Well, I suppose it was inevitable. After 1500 miles of trouble-free driving, my infotainment screen is borked with the usual flicking from one screen to another (see Video). It seems to be a problem with the screen driver as the main screen decreases slightly in size and it's enough for the left...

Am I the only one having problems with iDumb recently? It only ever used to connect to the car every other attempt but now, for the last fortnight, it just sits there saying "Unable to get the vehicle's GPS" and the vehicle status check just times out with the "The status checking is failed...

Charging the 12v battery:- I know you have to have the car in "Ready" mode for 30minutes or more, but is there any way of leaving the car whilst in that mode? I'm not using the car much for a week or three, but even though I'm at home, I don't relish just sitting in the car twiddling my thumbs...

Has anyone tried one of these?: Extender My wife has a lot of difficulty finding the seat belt buckle as she has the seat a fair way back and the buckle is then tucked away down the side of the centre console. I've just ordered one to see if it'll bring the buckle into her reach. I'll let you...

Can anyone recommend a car cover for use with the MG4? I'm looking for something I can use outside to protect the car from the elements, bird droppings, cats climbing all over it and general fallout. There are plenty of cheap covers around, but I don't want something that will rub through the...

Anyone know if the rubber boot stops are adjustable for length? On my previous car you could simply rotate them to screw them in or out. I've tried doing the same with the MG4 stops, but they don't rotate. My boot lid doesn't align with the rest of the bodywork well.

So, long journey coming up so I set the target charge level to 90% in the iSmart app and connected up to my Zappi. Came back to it this morning and the charge was complete however.....SOC screen says 90% but main screen, and the iSmart app says it's only charged to 80%. I am reading it...

Does anyone know how to adjust the volume of the directions given by ABRP when being used, with Android Auto, as the primary navigation aid? I find that the sound level of the spoken directions to be so quiet as to be unintelligible. If I increase the media volume, then the radio/streamed...

NEW EDIT 03/04/24 Hi Everyone, It is with more than a little disappointment that I will no longer be offering this service :( A combination of declining demand and ill health has unfortunately made it difficult for me to respond within a reasonable time frame to those desiring hard copy...

Has anyone come across the same glitch I did tonight? I came out to the car after dark and switched on as normal. I started to drive away, headlights on, when I noticed that the main infotainment display seemed a bit bright. Even changing to the navigation screen, the display was still at full...
