MG 4/Mulan after crash. Drive with deployed airbags. Crash reset. Cable and Software.

You're making fantastic progress. Really interesting to see the process for repairing the front bumper and spoiler. Fingers crossed you can get the other errors cleared and the car back on the road.

Today is the day of hood painting. The color is amazingly the same - great work of my paint shop. And some more progress to front splitter ( thanks for good words) the front splitter is almost done with structure paint finish.

Update

 

[chiMol]

And more

Please don't kill me for the front grille violation till I get new or alternative it's enough to prevent birds and big stones to go in radiator.
I have problem with srs ecu. Do you know someone that can help me with advice for soft to connect to it .. and make dump?

 

[siteguru]

What radiator? (It's an EV).

 

[Alb]

I'd have thought pretty much all EVs would have a radiator.

 

[siteguru]

Performing what function?

 

[mg4mc]

It has two, one behind the other (you can see them in post on the first page), one is for the motor/battery/CCU cooling, the other the AC condenser.

Yes, there are two independent circuits.

 

[chiMol]

Yes the radiators are two but the circuits are 3 with heat exchanger. Battery/motor circuit, controller circuit and ac ( heat pump ) circuit.
And daylight pic of my homade paint job. I think that result is better than expected.

 

[dsimpkins]

Good job on the paint. The panel gap between bonnet and bumper is a bit uneven, don't know if there's any option for adjusting that?

 

[chiMol]

This gap is still free there is missing plastic part which hold it to body .. you Have very precision eye ... I will fix it when headlight ballast come from uk.

 

[dsimpkins]

That's good, and yes I've been told I have an eye for detail

 

[Ian Key]

What do you use the other eye for? ?

 

[dsimpkins]

Anything else but detail

 

[chiMol]

Final from today

 

[Rolfe]

That's beginning to look quite impressive. Is that another project you have under wraps in the background?

 

[dsimpkins]

More interested in the Lada Niva (or Riva) in the garage, and the homemade battery pack on the drill.

Why do you think the car has two sets of coolant reservoirs under the bonnet?

There are radiators for battery, motor, and on non heat pump cars, aircon.

I got it wrong, the motor/battery and CCU are separate apparently, so a reservoir for each.
