    I bought a MG5 brand new two years ago. In October and November, I had to call the AA three times as the car broke down, saying there was a battery fault. The car went back to MG Hendy, who identified a thin film of water and moisture within the battery compartment. MG have said that this is...

    2nd Service Cost

    Hi all, I've had my MG5 FL for just under a year. When purchased, it was a year old so the dealership performed the first service when buying, so I didn't pay extra. I've just called to book in for its second service at Brindley MG Wolverhampton and been quoted £330. The service intervals...

    MG 5 Charging

    What is the recommended charge for a MG 5. I have just purchased a 2024 Trophy. I have read differing views. Some say 80% and others say that it is ok to go 100%. I am also new to EV driving. I would appreciate any advice on this.

    Hi all. I have a 2024 MG5 Trophy, on about 5000 miles. Recently I'm having an issue where Android Auto (connected via USB cable) keeps disconnecting and reconnecting. It happens when the car hits a bump or vibration in the road, not all the time, but that is what often triggers it. Sometimes...
