2023 MG5 SE. The anti-theft alarm keeps going off in middle of the night. No obvious triggers for it. I’ve checked all windows, doors and boot are properly closed. Is there anything else I should look for? Is there a way to lock the car without arming the alarm? For extra info, I noticed a...

Hello everyone, I recently replaced the rear parking sensors in my MG4, and now I’m getting an error as shown in the attached screenshot. Has anyone encountered a similar issue? Could it be related to incorrect installation, faulty sensors, or does the system require some kind of...

So yesterday I went for a dog walk in the snow and came back to find that my key wasn’t opening my 2020 ZS EV. I tried opening the car using the emergency key to get the dogs out of the traffic but it triggered the alarm and I couldn’t figure out how to turn it off. Is there a button somewhere...

Accidently triggered alarm. Locked girlfriend in the car :) But how do you release it im confused in what this screen means (attachment) Does it mean release this alarm or does it mean ignore all alarms off this type including future once. Edit: alarm triggered more than 5 days ago

Hi, I took the ZS Hybrid for a test drive and it was great… except for an alarm sound that kept going off. It wasn’t the nice gentle speed limit chimes (can these be turned off) it was crazy loud and I was about to pull over and call the dealership when it stopped. No lights on the dash...

Hello all, Well I did my research and OBDLink CX is definitely listed as compatible with my new MG4. So it arrived today and I fitted it (easy) and soon I was getting live data to ABRP. The issue is when I came to lock the car and return to the house, the ALARM went off. The only way I could...

Ive had my standard UK long range MG4 for 8 months from new and got a surprising response today. Car was parked on my drive, I believe locked. Fob in my pocket. I went to open the boot using the button on the hatchback, which I’ve done several times with the vehicle locked, this time the car...

I have had my car just over a week but have had issues with the alarm going off when it is raining. The car is at the dealership and they can't find anything wrong. No rain past couple of days!! Has anyone else had problems ??

Have I got this completely wrong?? I thought that if I locked the car using the key fob, that set the alarm... My rear windscreen was smashed and my charging cable stolen and the alarm did not go off! Can anyone help? By the way, if you weren't already aware, parcel shelves and charging cables...

Hi. I bought a used MG5 approximately 5 weeks ago. I’ve just realised that the boot is permanently unlocked even when car is locked from the fob. The alarm does not sound if I manually open the boot with the car locked from the key fob. I keep some expensive equipment in the boot for my job...

Anyone know how to disable the Tilt Detection or Cabin Motion Detection on the alarm. The manual says these can be deactivated on the entertainment screen, but I can't find them. Going to need to turn off the Tilt Detection on our regular ferry trips across to Orkney.

Well that's a first for me! I had an alarm telling me the car was being broken into. Good to know that you get a warning in the app come up on your phone. I set the alarm off when I tried to lock the car with an ELM OBD Dongle still connected to the OBD port.

Car Scanner Pro has recently been added to Apple CarPlay (and Android Auto I think), so it's possible to see your percentage charge on your infotainment screen now. I have a problem with my pre-facelift ZS though - shortly after turning off and locking the car the alarm sounds, unless I...

Hi. I have a 2020 ZS EV. The car was sat for 3 days and when I returned the 12V battery was dead. Unfortunately I've lost the blades from both of my keys so a car locksmith opened my door so I could pop the bonnet. The battery was charged overnight however when I plug the battery back in...

I've received two of these messages (on my phone/MG app) today. Has anyone seen anything similar? It looks like they are being sent after i stop (and lock?) the car. They are followed by a security alarm cancelled message a few minutes later and the car alarm didn't sound.

Hello, I have a 2023 zs long range trophy and had to collect a lot of fruit and veg for a food bank. The back seats were folded down before the weight was put in but all the journey the seat belt alarm was going off. Is there anyway to deactivate this in the future please? Thanks

Hi all. My LR ZS has sent me a message on the Mg app saying that the airbag has sent a warning & the alarm has been triggered?? Has anyone had the same happen? Car is due to go in for its annual service on the 27th July, but I’m worried that the airbag could go off while I’m driving! Any help ?

Does anyone know how to turn the theft alarm off? I’m about to go on the ferry from Portsmouth to Santander, it’s 36 hours across the Bay of Biscay and previously we’ve always turned the car alarm off to stop it going off as the boat moves. I’ve checked the book around recovery towing but it...
