Just received the below from MG customer care, thought you all might find it useful ! I should add that the comment regarding nav updates is incorrect, I’ve looked on the site and the im6 ( uk version) is not listed.
Good morning,
Thank you for contacting MG Customer Care,
Thank you for...
There is a 'reverse engineered' project on Github to access data using the MG API called: saic-python-client-ng
Much of the work and coding examples relate to other MG models, which was a surprise to me when they didn't really work with the S5.
So I had to iterate through a collection called...
Hi all, hope all's well.
Having our S5EV Trophy LR delivered on 17th and no doubt will post endless questions on here for advice. Apologies in advance 🤣
Q1: Does my wife need her own account set up for her app, independently bound to the car, or will one account in my name be enough? I can set...
iSmart connection has not been working for over two months. Car has been 4 times at the dealer, no help. Last time they replaced TBOX module.
I can bind the car to iSmart, but no data is updated. The last update date on the app is two months old. No commands are going through.
SatNav works ok...
Apologies, I previously raised this subject, however, it appears that there was confusion regarding ‘Battery Preconditioning’, and using the iSmart app’s facility to pre-heat the cabin/seats etc.
To reiterate, my question relates to understanding exactly what PRE CONDITIONING THE (traction)...
Hi,
Just taken delivery of an S5 Trophy. It doesn’t seem to be connecting to 4G data - just 2G, despite being in a good signal are for all networks. Consequently, none off the live data functions seem to be working. I can connect to the car the iSmart app but its very slow.
Anybody else had...
Does/has anyone successfully used public charging stations?
I tried two today, a Mer one and a Pod, and at both was unable to actually get the car to charge.
At the Mer one the car kept aborting the charge with the control unit saying it was ready but an error occurred so to try reconnecting the...
Usually when I want to run a phone app on my Windows PC I use the MuMu Android emulator, and it works a treat.
But, while I can install the iSmart app, when I run it, it freezes on the MG logo.
Has anyone successfully got this combination, or any other, working?
Equalisation success.
My MGS5 is now 8 weeks old, Time for battery maintenance.
A previous attempt to Equalise the traction HV battery failed, with no apparent reason I could find.
2 weeks ago I attempted the equalisation with the battery at 15% on home "OHME" charger, probably didn't let the...
Hi
I bought my FL MG5 SE in September 2024. During last winter the remote defrost and heating never worked from the ISMART App. It turns the fans on but it’s always cold. The defrost/heating works fine when I’m driving the car.
I contacted the email in the App and the reply said take it to the...
It's a very frosty morning and I decided to try out the remote heating option using the iSmart iOS appl. But after several attempts I have given up. None of the options work, seat heating, windscreen heating, A/C control. I've tried remotely locking/unlocking the car but nothing fixes it...
Sorry if this has been answered elsewhere, I couldnt find anything from searching.
Scheduled battery heating in the ismart app, am i setting the time to start heating or to start driving
I have a long journey and its sub 5°c so could use any extra range i can get. Its unclear if im setting my...
Hi everyone, Just bought an MG ZS Hybrid+ a week ago, I have been trying to open an account on ismart app but as soon as I get to the password screen it wont let me continue I have put in a password that is long enough with the right mixture of letters and numbers but it still wont let me go any...
First of all , I'm very happy to join to this community :)
I've searched here a lot before deciding to post this - I really hope I could get some help with my case.
So, I've purchased an MG 4 EV 2025 just 3 weeks ago - and ever since that, I just can't connect the app to my car no matter what...
OK so new MGS5, when I plug it in & look at the iSmart app, it has a button saying "Start charging" So I have set a timed charge to coincide with my cheap rate. The only way it seems to initiate charging even at or beyond the timed start is to press the "Start charging" button. Am I missing...
Just went to check something via the iSMART app, and it decided to request that I enter my password as the token has expired. Just a few things wrong with that
- The app never indicated that there was a chance of doing something so stupid as giving up on using my phone's fingerprint reader and...
The user manual for my MGZS has disappeared from my iSMART app.
Can anyone tell me:-
a). how to recover it, or
b). Where else can I find it? or,
C). Tell me how to decouple my mobile devices before I sell it?
Thanks
Daft newbie idiot here!
Just taken delivery of my HS Trophy PHEV and in the process of introducing myself to it! One initial issue is that the user manual on the iSMART app seems to be very generic and many of the images of the button controls (particularly on the steering wheel) bear little...
Hello, how reliable is remote access to the vehicle using the iSmart app? In my experience, very often when I need to connect to the vehicle (to remotely heat or cool it), the app fails to connect. This bothers me a lot. How about you? Is there a control unit fix for this? Or is it an...
