Unwanted modifications
Following on from Storm Eowyn my poor MG5 has taken a turn for the worse. I'm hoping it will be driveable but am a bit concerned about getting it out 😕
A few days ago I saw a post, either on here or facebook, from someone in England selling 4 wheels for an MG5 Trophy. I wasn't interested at the time but now I want them and I can't find the post anywhere. Did anyone else see it and can point me in the right direction?
Later that day.....
Found...
Hi everyone,
I have a 2021 MG5 Exclusive, and I recently had to replace the radiator. Now, I’m looking to buy an OBD scanner that can perform a radiator bleed. I don’t want to spend a fortune, so any recommendations for affordable models that support this feature would be greatly appreciated...
I’ve made the move to trade up my SR Excite for a nearly new SE LR, I’ve tried searching on here but can’t find any hits to answer my question. Am I right in thinking that all MGs have automatic AA cover as long as they are in first year or serviced every year? So I don’t need to worry about...
Hi,
Wondering if anyone has advice on:
1. How doable replacing the charging flap/door of an MG5 Trophy is
2. The best place to buy online?
It was snapped off while open (car was charging) presumably by someone who just walked by and it bent in the wrong direction. I've been told warranty...
Hiya, I've a week old MG5 trophy in drive and we have a few holidays coming up. We live in a road where car thefts are common. Was thinking of getting a steering wheel lock as a deterrent for the period I'm away. Looked at disclock, stoplock etc and unsure if they are any good. What type of...
Hello, just bought a new mg5. Looking for advice please regarding its security as there have been a few car thefts on this road. How good is its factory fitted immobilizer, is the add-on tracker being offered by MG for £350 any good? I've seen a few posts about mg4 owners using steering wheel...
I live in the UK and rental the house i live in. The owner of the property has approved an installation request for a home charger.
There are so many options out there i dont know which one would be best for me. I will need the grant available and ideally look for interest free credit options...
I recently upgraded my MG5 from a 22 plate to a 24 plate FL. Now I have the app I have noticed that when charging with a 10 amp that should be pulling 2.3 kW at least, the app tells me it is charging at 1.6 kW. Surely there is not a 25% efficiency loss, or is there?
Hi everyone,
I recently bought a lightly damaged MG5 Exclusive with a Cat S rating. The slam panel is cracked, and I’m planning to replace it myself. However, I’m running into an issue with the high voltage wiring that runs through the top of the slam panel. I’m not sure how to disconnect the...
Hi
Simple question, will your MG 5 charge to full capacity in cold weather, for my 21 plate model that is 163 miles.
With temperatures around feeezing i I cannot get a charge in above 137 miles. I normally charge it to 70% which takes it to 137 miles, it’s only occasionally that I need...
MG5ev trophy facelift long range.
Anyone had problems with car recognising 20mph speed signs. Mine either ignores or displays 60 mph on dash.
Sees all other signs fine. Never once displayed a 20 mph.
Received my LV= renewal notice for the RS today so was bracing myself for the hike in premium.
£251 last year but the renewal quote for this year is ..........
A step in the right direction :)
What are the chances of seeing the same in June when the MG5 comes up for renewal?
Hi All, very silly question and I'm sure it has been asked before. Is there any way of adjusting the heating temperature from the Steering Wheel buttons on the MG5 Facelift, either in the trophy or the SE, perhaps in conjunction with the favourite/star button like you can on the MG4, or do you...
Hi all
First of all I would like to thank “Andy b87” for his information
I was going to fit the lowering springs myself but as you all know over the last few week it’s been a bit cold to do this on the driveway 😂
So I took it to my local garage who did the job for me
Then I had the wheels all...
Hi all,
Had a bit of a nightmare with my wife's new char. It's 4 days old and we haven't been able to use it as it had a puncture on delivery. Anyway we need to replace the tyre.
The car has no jack in the boot and the manual states use the jack between the sill. There is no sill on the rear...
Hi all
I have. 2023 mg5 long-range and the alarm has started to go off the last 2 days...normally within 20mins of locking..
Tried opening closing all windows doors multiple times... Tried replacing fob batteries and tried cleaning the boot latch....
Car is pristine and low mileage so am...
I've seen a few videos over the past week relating to the ES5* SUV - the 2 below quite detailed
At least one of them has touted this as the MG5 replacement based on the MG4
It looks OK but seems more like a ZS replacement than a 5
Be interesting to know if anyone else has seen any press...
On the PFL you did this. Wait until it says on dashboard. "Finished Uncharged" White letters.
If the message is Finished and it is in Green colour then it is balancing.
Wait for the white message "Finished - Uncharged" and the whole process has been completed.
But how do you know it is...
