Yesterday I went to drive the car and even put it into gear, but it would not budge. I also got messages on the screen that HV battery was disconnected. After numerous tries for over an hour I could not get it driving. I had to call the MG recovery and when the AA guy came out he also could not get it to drive. He was going to put it on a flatbed, but had one last try and it worked. I will obviously contact MG about this problem, but has anyone experienced anything like this?
Is there...

Just brought, 24 days ago, a MG ZS EV in white.
Owned for 24 days and told the corrosion, example attached, is within an acceptable level and can be expected.
There is surface rust to the bonnet, suspension mounts and sub frame but again all classed as superficial.
We have issues with
1. Play in the steering wheel and knocking when cornering
2. Message that regen braking is limited and to use the brake (battery not fully charged or to hot/cold)
3. Front avoidance...

Hi all
I have recently had my first year 15k service done on my MGzs ev Trophy long range.
I am not impressed with MG agents as are most people on this forum I think.
I made the mistake of going back to Perrys in Aylesbury where I bought the car last year.
I alos did not give due diligence to the servicing cost and was amazed at the different prices charged for the same thing from dealers.
The prices in the south of england varied from £89 to £210 for a 15K service. When I enquired why...

I recently tried preheating the car using the ismart app and all it did was refreeze the car because it set the AC to Lo setting . After some experimentation I discovered that if you preset the AC to its HI setting in other words beyond the top temperature setting then the car did warm up and the AC did not cool the car. Has anyone else discovered this ..read more

Any one get lower than 2.1 miles/kwh?

I am considering ordering a MG ZS EV long range trophy model. Currently drive a 2021 hyundai kona 64kwh. I regularly use lane follow assist on motorways in my kona. Was wondering how MG pilot, traffic jam assist compare. Would love to hear from anyone who previously had a kona or 38kwh ioniq with LFA ..read more

A very non-scientific experiment.....
I’ve asked on a few forums about the benefit of pre-heating the car on very cold days to try and avoid the initial cold running m/kWh effect and the general consensus was it wasn't worth it.
Well after a particularly poor run when I got 6 miles for around 5kWh and then 10 miles for the second 5kWh (16 miles total) without any pre-heating of the car, I thought I'd do some testing.
For my test the vehicle was fully charged and outside temp was 0...

Anyone got a simple suggestion for light in the back?
I've seen folk wiring led tape into the front light but I don't have the time or patience at the moment so anyone got anything else? Don't mind if they have to be manually turned on/off ..read more

Hope this is ok to post here, but I wanted to pick your brains.
I just took delivery of a very awesome 2022 standard MG ZS. Everything is going great and I love it, well except the range.
I’m on day two and took a 32 mile trip and the car went from 100% to 52%!
Does this mean my actual range is 64 miles? I knew I wouldn’t get the near 200 it was advertised as but this was kind of a shock and I’m hoping I’m missing something.
The trip itself wasn’t anything fancy, a short 10 minute drive on a...
