MG ZS Forum in UAE

Has anyone replaced the charcoal canister solenoid valve?

I want to ask about the 2018 ZS. A couple of days ago, it wouldn't start, so I had it towed for repair. The shop owner told me it's due to a timing chain slip, which caused the valve to bend, and it needs major engine repairs. They said that timing chain slips are common issues with MG and Roewe. Is that true? [About to cry]

Hey guys, has anyone experienced a car door that won't open? How did you fix it, by replacing the lock actuator or the lock itself?

Hey folks, I've heard that for models after 2018, the oil pump belt tends to break easily after 60,000 km, leading to major engine repairs. Has anyone driven high mileage without replacing it?

Thinking about getting a 2020 manual transmission. Seeing all your issues, is this car really that bad? 😂

My 2018 automatic ZS sometimes shakes when waiting at a red light after the vehicle warms up. Between 60 to 100 km/h, the car feels like it's being pulled back, and there's a strong jerking sensation. If I press the accelerator hard to over 3000 RPM, the jerking stops. Using cruise control to accelerate also avoids the shaking. Is this a transmission issue?

Anyone knows why the 2021 ZS180 makes abnormal engine noise as soon as it reaches 40 km/h? It's been happening for a few days.

Are there any GS owners here? How do you connect the 2017 model's car system to CarPlay? The central control screen can't be operated. Does it need an upgrade? How do you upgrade it?

Why can't the car unlock even though the key battery is charged?

Is sunroof leaking and rear door handle not retracting a common issue?

What kind of bulbs did you buy to replace the ones that stopped working on your 2018 model?

How do I turn on the daytime running lights?

What grade of engine oil do you use?

Hey fellow car enthusiasts, what tire brands are you guys using? Is it possible to switch to a size bigger, like 18s?

Today gave me a scare! The light was green and suddenly a fault code appeared, and the car wouldn't move! Not sure what happened. I didn't have time to take a photo.
