Traction control button

[Ads]

I picked up my orange trophy this morning and one of the sales guys had just found the button to turn off the traction control (ESC). You have to swipe down from the top of the home screen and it's there on the left. Not sure if this is part of a newer software update or has been there for a while. I tried it out (at very low speed on a quiet road) and can confirm it does indeed allow quite a lot of wheelspin! Overall I'm really pleased with the car - so much fun to drive and no real downsides.

I've seen this setting but left the ESC on, sill managed to spin the wheels on a wet junction yesterday when pulling out sharpish, brought a smile to my face.

So far this car has been very grin inducing!

If you pull down from the centre of the screen, it will open HVAC controls.
Useful for Trophy drivers as the HVAC setting shortcut is not on the main menu screen (as it is in the SE).

Great tips, thanks. I thought I had been through every screen but obviously not. I wonder what else I’ve missed.

Someone could set up a separate thread for tips?

I don't have a MG4, but here is another tip for the lucky new owners:

If your your infotainment screen gets glitchy or slow...
Press and hold the Home button for 10 seconds to reboot the infotainment screen.

Here's another one that I just discovered on the motorway: the cruise control won't come on while ESC is off ?

Have you tried the "Screen off" button?
It would be interesting to find out how to turn the screen back on again.

When I tried it, just pressing on the screen again made it come back on.

Thanks for trying it out.

Have lots of fun in your new car!

I notice there is an Autohold button there as well.

Yes, there's another one in the main driving menu.
