maintenance

The technical meaning of maintenance involves functional checks, servicing, repairing or replacing of necessary devices, equipment, machinery, building infrastructure, and supporting utilities in industrial, business, and residential installations. Over time, this has come to include multiple wordings that describe various cost-effective practices to keep equipment operational; these activities occur either before or after a failure.

    That good ol' keeping the 12V battery perky thread repeat.

    Had the squeaky bum moment this morning with the 12V battery showing 12.2 after just 6 days of ownership. Due to trying to be proactive and not end up with windows inadvertently being left down when I'm not with the car, I'd got into the habit of using the power off button in safety to totally...

    Shiny! (Clean car)

    Sunday morning well spent, cleaned inside and out. I do like the Supagard cleaning pack that came with the car. Have added some additional items over the past year to make cleaning a lot quicker and easier. Still got to try their Paint Seal cream that another member recommended.

    MG4 service planner on Google sheets

    Hi, I had a maintenance logbook in GSheets for my old vehicle. I found it very useful (no software, data owner, easy sharing, auto backup, ...) Inspired by a BMW car sheet, I customized it quite a bit to adapt it to the MG4. Here it is! Everything is in English but I added an auto translation...

    10-100% charging

    There is a thread in the MG4 section, which suggests that 10-100% charging is required every so often - apparently this is mentioned in the MG4 manual. I can't find anything in the MG5 manual that suggests that this is necessary - only charging to 100% and allowing equalisation to take place...

    One Month of ownership

    Well, I’ve been driving my Pre-FL LR MG5 for a month now. The 3 pin charger is working well and certainly keeps the battery at around 70% easily. I’ve driven nearly 700 miles without an issue. I did get the 70,000 mile service done at a cost of £230.00 which included the replacement of two rear...

    Service interval for MG4

    Hi guys, I didn't find anything about this in the WIKI so here's my question: what is the service interval for the MG4? Well, once a year or every how many miles? Does the XPower have a different interval? Thank you ;-)
