Coincidence, I only realised a few days ago the spreadsheet was a picture rather than an actual spreadsheet that folk could search/sort.
I've put a link in now to it on my dropbox, so it's downloadable

Slightly off subject, but.
Have you guys found a command that can be issued to keep the OBD2 port alive, without setting the alarm off?
So they updated the BMS and VCU (Vehicle Control Unit) modules.
I'm a mac man......so its the mac spreadsheet format, I'd have thought most programs should be able to open it....
This shows nicely how the charge is all a mess!
Haha I've no idea, all I remembered was to check the BMS version ? wonder what the VCU version change does.
it had another 1hr to do a balance but i had to leave earlier than normal.
Oh no, don't charge it up and pay if you can help it lol.
I've exported it as an excel xlsx.
I'll do this every time I update it so it's in both formats
I really don't know what the VCU could do, it's a pretty generic term 'Vehicle Control Unit' so there's no hint even. Keep your eyes peeled for any differences!

The solution we have right now is to not talk to the BCM (Body Controller) as any messages to it will set off the alarm on UK/EU spec cars. Thai cars are a lot less fussy.Cheers Mike

Well I plugged it in but I don't trust my Pod-Point to balance properly... as it only hit 93.2% and only put 1.2kw into the car even though I was down 2 bars.
Went into Frasers of Falkirk, spoke about the BMS update, they are not interested in updating it if they have not had notification from MG that my VIN requires it ( I bid read that MG UK have either contacted or in the process of contacting any customers who had the faulty BMS), they were not prepared to discuss which BMS I had and which one I should have, if it did not have the October BMS there is no problem?, so battery still at 450/470v, also if you are thinking of taking out the service contract, don't go for the cheaper option as altho MG seem to think the only difference to the service is the delay of replacing parts in the 10000-mile service which make it cheaper the Dealers seem to have made their minds up that it will be a far smaller service with many of the normal service checks missing including diagnostic checks, which I was not happy about, I have bitten the bullet and gone for the 5-year service plan, which will protect my costs for the five years.
