brake

The EPB on my ZS EV sometimes fails to engage. I bring the car to a stop, by using regenerative braking and the foot brake. I then operate the EPB switch and you can hear the brake motor whirr but the brakes don’t stay on. Its just had its first service and there was no fault code registered...

Yesterday, when I got in the car I got a control system failure error which told me to drive to an MG garage. The only problem was that the car refused to move. I could select R or D but the car wouldn't move despite the power reading 30%. I tried the instructions in the manual to release the...

We had a spill inside the car and got water in the Parking brake switch. The car is drivable but slams on the brake when almost stationary as it can't register the switch condition. Anyone advise as to how to remove the switch to dry it or replace it if necessary?

Perhaps more of a technical question, do our cars have open differential? Or is there a brake driven system that mimics LSD much like in BMW's e-diff. Reason I'm asking is; I was climbing out of my steep and twisty garage, left rear wheel lost contact from the limited suspension travel and...

High re-gen slows the car quite dramatically, more so that I'm used to with ICE cars and therefore more than drivers behind me might expect. So, I wonder, does it apply the brake light to warn the driver behind it's dropped the anchor? Si

C'mon - who's going to be first then ?? ?? ( if I could afford it I so would ?)

Anyone pepped their brake lights up yet. And more importantly I suppose, is it legal ? ( AliExpress special). Certainly make your point when braking. Probably extremely irritating if fired during regen braking and sitting at lights with foot on brake.

So what do you think of this shameless profiteering from the only MG parts suppplier I could initially find online. MG4 Front Brake Pads. Volkswagen Golf GTD Front Brake Pads. Let's hope we can purchase from Ali Express or such like when required eh?

I recently took my MG4 SE for its first service at the dealership who informed me to check in six months that I my may need to replace my brake discs. Is this normal after only 4,500 miles? Are they made of Weetabix or cardboard? I have run discs up to 30,000 miles in the past and replaced them...

[ Moderator: Merging threads on this important and emotive issue. Please use this thread for all unwanted AEB issues. ] Driving out of a Morrison's supermarket at the weekend my MG4 suddenly decided to [for the want of a better phrase] emergency brake. This happened once before in the new year...

I have a two and a half year old MG5 long range and on two occasions (several weeks apart) I have been waiting in traffic with the manual parking brake applied and when I try to move off (by just pressing the accelerator) nothing happens! I can't be sure but I think the heating fan stops but the...

So basically if you're considering the Honda e:Ny1 EV, then for £20k less you can get an MG4. Or alternatively, when you can get a Tesla for the same money, who in the hell would buy an e:Ny1?

Late 2020 MG ZS EV, approx 60k miles. Hi, I recently had my rear brake pads replaced at my local garage. They advised me that there was now a warning light on the dash (autohold fault). Not only that, but the parking brake also doesn't work, meaning I had to put logs behind the wheels to stop...

Hi Do you know how I put Parking Brake in service mode on MG ZS EV 2020 or is it not possible? Regards Runar

I've never seen this before, but when you come off the throttle, the brake lights activate. I've never seen this before.

On my way to work I accelerated at a roundabout, not especially hard and quickly realised it was continuing to accelerate despite me not wanting to. I was able to use the brake but every time I took my foot off the brake it accelerated alarmingly quickly. I should point out I didn't have any...

Hi. I'm in Australia, and had a test drive here. For me, one of the most disappointing things was the pedal location. The brake and the accelerator are both in the middle. Does anyone know if I can move the pedal to further right? I was keep pressing down the empty space on the right side of...

Having had the car for 2 years and a ZS EV before that for a year I had never used the parking brake switch on either car until this last weekend. :) I had always found the footbrake, Autohold and Park to cover all my needs for holding the car when stopped. However for some reason sat at lights...

Good Afternoon. I have a 2022 HS that covered approx 15000 kilometres. The park brake engages automatically when the ignition is switched off and normally disengages when brake button is pressed down. This morning, the brake did not release and I had to put the car into Drive and press the...

I was following a mk2 today on a 40mph road for several minutes. When there were no other cars infront (potentially activating its adaptive cruise control), it’s brake lights very briefly flashed on roughly every 5 seconds. It would've been very interesting if I’d have been able to ask them...
