Car Wash

[LJM]

Can I take my MG ZS EV with sunroof through the carwash?

 

[RobinH]

Yes, but you don't really need our permission!
Remember to remove the aerial and you should be fine.

Thank you. For some reason someone told me that I couldn’t take an electric car through the car wash.

You couldn't make it up.


Wait a minute....

Don’t forget to close the sunroof though and whilst you are at it you could even shut the windows!

Was it an ICE owner…

Taken our car through a hand wash and automated car washes (not on the same day ?) a few times never had any issues.

No, twas the Daily Mail. ??

What about a car wash that drag the car through on a moving rail? The car needs to be switched on so the hand brake remains off, but then the crash sensors could be triggered by cleaning brushes?

 

[Coulomb]

It probably doesn't trigger at low speeds, for exactly this and a few other reasons.

Don't leave the wipers on auto!

Why would that be any different ICE Vs Electric?

The only challenge I faced with a car wash was that many of the auto ones require you to fold in the wing mirrors … I could find no way of doing this other than turn the car off. Not a major deal but it did throw me at first.

Push the rotary mirror adjuster down and mirrors fold in, I think press down again to fold back out.

I’m wish I’d known that at the time ?

 

[ger]

Yes press once to close and press again to open.

We have taken ours through loads of times. Remember to turn auto hold off and just put it in neutral like any auto and you’ll be fine. I dont fold the mirrors as I want them cleaned too. Never had any issues. The back doesn’t always get fully clean though due to the shape
?

Drivers seat belt needs to be fastened, auto hold off, car in ready, neutral selected,
