Has anyone else had problems rapid charging a long range Mg4?
Mine has just been in for it’s first annual service, and they were made aware I was unable to rapid charge prior to delivery.
Upon collection, I drove to my nearest instavolt rapid chargers, as the dealer doesn’t have one! and yet again was unable to initiate the charge on any of the stations. I immediately took it back to the dealer who then had to book it back in, in 2 weeks time!
This is totally unacceptable as it hadn’t been successful repaired in the first place.
I assume all updates were applied during the service, although it was ready for collection after 5 hours.
There’s no way of knowing what they actually did or didn’t do as any warranty work has no paper trail to the customer, and no service book either!
(It’s all in their database apparently)
I find this astonishing in this day and age when you get electronically tagged with almost everything you do.

[Incidentally, I now have the new HVAC menu, cannot get amazon music any more, and cannot change from KM’s to Miles in the iSMART app.
So they must have done something.] Discussion on iSmart issues split to separate thread.
 
I think it’s a bit deeper than just disconnecting the 12v battery, it’s resetting the main battery somehow.
Well, it finally went in for the “battery reset” today, and guess what, still not resolved.
Still registering a temp of 86deg so will not complete the handshake.
Just waiting yet again for MG to pull their finger out.
Not been able to rapid charge since September.
So very very disappointing.
