Important Update / Correction for ACC & TJA!!!
ACC & TJA at complete stop - 30s standby period. After continuous driving and testing (counting numbers in my head in Auckland traffic😆), I have found that the standby period for MG4 all variant is actually 30 seconds (not 3 seconds as I explained in the video).
That means when the MG4 comes to a complete stop following a vehicle on ACC/TJA, it will automatically resume ACC/TJA if the lead vehicle moves within 30 seconds. The driver will not need to do anything at all. If the MG4 comes to a complete stop on ACC/TJA and stayed for more than 30s, the driver will then need to press the accelerator or resume button on steering.
Great! My Golf 7 has only the 3 second waiting period, and it's too short. 30 seconds is much better! 👏👏👏
Hi Jerry. Greetings and thanks from Oz! Took delivery of an Essence 64 last week. Wonderful car and I/we have to admit being able to watch your videos for a few weeks before delivery was a great help. Our old car was 13 years "young" and didn't have any "wizbang" electronics. Your tutorials were a great help. Thanks from us.
Thank you so much for the comment and support!
Jerry's MG videos have been great, been following for a while, reviews are good and helpful
Thanks for the support.
just about to get a new MG4, these vids could not have come at a better time :)

Can't get any more detailed information from any other channel. Great job Jerry. Keep it up please...

I bought the same MG4 as you have in your video. They are a lovely car and i really enjoy driving it. I find your videos very helpful. Thank you from ireland
Thanks a lot for the support. Enjoy the lovely car!
Great video! Thanks!
Thanks a lot for the support!
Thankyou Jerry for all your work putting these MG4 tutorial videos together, they are very helpful and timely for me. I've ordered an Essence 64 in Volcanic Orange, (is there any other colour? 😜) after my second test drive two weeks ago. I hope I can last out before expected delivery in about 5 weeks.
Awesome! Hope the wait won’t be too long. Thanks for the support.
Excellent video, very informative
Thank you for the support!
Awesome video!! Thank you very much for the time that you have spent explaining us everything 👍👍👍👏👏👏
Thanks for the comment and support
Excellent Sir! I have a very blue Trophy. What a great car. I find your video most helpful. Thank you.
Glad it helped. Thanks!
Picking up my MG4 in 3 days. Glad to be able to work through your videos - and glad I went for the Essence!
Awesome pick.
Picking up my MG4 Trophy today, your videos were great in prepping me
Thanks for the support.
Jerry, thanks from U.K. , I pick up my MG4 Trophy in a few weeks time, these videos are so useful.
Awesome. Thanks for the comment. Enjoy your MG4 :D
Great video
Thanks for the support.
Thank you so much! From an one month MG4 user in Cambodia
Thanks for the support!
Great Video!
Thanks for the comment and support!
Best vids on mg on youtube
Thanks mate.
Hi Jerry, Due to pick up my MG4 tomorrow. Watched videos and suffering brain overload at present but I'm sure it will all come out good soon enough. These are excellent tutorials and I will keep coming back to them as I explore the car. SE England should prove a good test for some of these clever features. Bear in mind that I come from an era when heaters were an optional extra.
Enjoy. Thanks for the support
Thank you. You helped me understand my cruise control. You also confirmed that I cannot change the default lane assist function.
Thanks for the comment :D
Thanks for the video just got my new mg4 77 long distance today. Played with the settings for an hour or so and had most figured out. I didnt know about the hidden limiter setting which I will love as I used to have it on my Ford Focus. There is a setting to assign functions to the left and right star on the steering wheel. This allows me to change to sport mode on the right and max regen/eco mode on the left star.
Thanks for the comment. Yes, next tutorial video about all the steering buttons will be uploaded later today.
Very nice
Thanks for the support
Good video, always learning new stuff about the 4. My speed limit recognition also picks up “some” State Highway Number shields i.e. on SH20 it will recognise the red shield with white ‘20’ and display that as the limit…. While I’m at 100 🤦♂️ unfortunately doesn’t read the digital variable speed signs on the Auckland motorway system, which would be handy.
Yeah it is not as accurate as human eyes for sure. I suspect the system is also not tailored to NZ road signs rather than international signs.
Thanks
Thank you so much for this.
Very informative. Thank you. Could you provide some information on One Pedal Driving?
Thanks for the comment and support! Will have one video for Regen Brake and Drive Mode soon.
I have been watching all your tutorial videos. Great stuff mate !
Would you also be able to do a video on drive modes. I heard drove modes can't be saved. Still awaiting for my Essence64 😊
Thanks for the comment. Yes, a video about drive modes and regen brake is definitely going to be around probably tutorial number 9 or something. You are also correct. Drive modes cannot be saved.
You can assign drive mode to right/left star and regen breaking to other. Only thing missing is one pedal driving for quick access. Only got my mg4 today maybe I missed another way
Great videos, get myMG4 in a month or so and I’ll be able to get straight in and set my car up without reading anything! Quick question, am I right in thinking you can have either normal cruise control or adaptive CC
You can only have adaptive cruise ACC.
Thanks Jerry. Very insightful video! For the Lane Keeping, I understand that it will be turned on every time we turn the car on. But does it memorize "Alert Only" + "Low Sensitivity" setting? Same question for Front Collision Assist, does it remember Alert only setting?
Thanks for the comment.
No it resets to Lane Assist every time.
Hi Jerry, I have an mg4 and find your TH-cam tutorials great and watch them regularly. You’re the best at explaining how the setups work. I have a question. The mg4 makes an artificial noise when you reverse and drive. Is there any way of turning this off pr turning it down. I find it annoying. It’s probably the only thing I don’t like about the car. Sincerely
Thanks for the comment!
No, you won't be able to turn it off or down (at least legitly). EVs will need to make small whining noises for pedestrians for safety reasons.
Great video Jerry!! Still waiting on my MG4. Also have a question over here, does it save all the settings and changes made in these menu’s? Or does it reset every time?
Some gets reset (like lane system, front brake system) and some don't (like blind spot, cruise control).
It's there any way of fixing lane assist permanently off
Hi Jerry, should over the air updates be available for MG4s in NZ? Mine says the car is not registered for this service. Also, did you know that NZ models are not supplied with a grab handle above the driver's door, even on the Essence model? Very strange cost saving
Hi there, I'm working and learning on the OTA update part. There is no answer to that at this stage but it will be a future video if I find out.
No, NZ models are not supplied with a grab handle on the driver side. It is same with MG HS and some other MG cars in NZ. Strange yet I don't know why....
@@JerryPanandCars thanks Jerry 🙏👍
I have a Question: Does the TJA, ACC and Lane Departure Assist work even if you're not wearing a seatbelt?
Thanks to the Videos, I really understood how my new Car works. 👍
Thanks for the comment. I don't think they will work if the driver is not wearing the seatbelt.
Just got to ask some question , test driven my car and they can be quick , faster than our car at present , whats the best mode setting to slow it down in the settings , max regen , one pedal breaking ? does the car save your preferences , I know it will always will switch back on lane assist etc , will it keeps on those noted above the next time you start , will it also remember your speed assist settings the next time you start thanks
I personally like the max regen not one-pedal.
Hey Jerry, Greetings from across the ditch! 'm picking up my xpower in a couple days, and I have a specific question regarding the Assist mode... I know it will re-engage when disabled, but if I enable it, and choose "Alert" only and "Low" for sensitivity, will it keep those settings?
I don’t think they keep those settings :(
@@JerryPanandCars ah damn ... iguess it will become the "Entry ritual" ... get in, power on, turn off assist
how does the mg4 auto pilot system compare to tesla? Is the braking smooth? And lane keeping can stay accurately on the center?
Not as good as the Tesla.
If you put LKA on low the next time you start the car it resets to the maximum setting or unless you dont disable LKA it saves the setting you put it on?
It doesnt memorize your setting. Everytime it goes on with moderate leverl I think.
Thanks for those videos Jerry. Can you tell me the version number of the infotainment system in your video?
Thanks. Finally got around to do this for your comment. The version on this vehicle is
SWI165-29176-1100R04
@@JerryPanandCars
Thanks for the info.
Mine has the version number SWI68-29958-1300R24 and will be upgraded soon.
Do you know how to decode these numbers?
I have a “Luxury” (Throphy) and I'm in Iceland.
I wonder if MG realise the deep dive required to disable lane keep assist is a potential blocker for potential customers like me? Can LKA disable be assigned to a steering wheel function button? At least it will then be much like my current 2022 Hyundai.
I hope they do but not at this stage.
What happen the. Speed sign change, will the autopilot also change speed to the new speed sign
Nope. The speed is set by the driver

Hi all,
I'm due to have my MG4 SE (base model) in the UK end of October,
Anyone knows if it is like the Australian base model (Excite I believe) in having:
1. Rear camera.
2. Rear wipers.
3. Interior grab handles.
As they weren't in the 2023 base model, not sure if they added it in the 2024 models?
Hi there, this is something a local UK dealer / salesperson can answer for you. I won't be able to help on this :(
Hi. Can you please explain how the spec of 250nm torque on a 2023 MG 1.5 litre engine car can be more than an older 2.4l 2006 camry 180nm torque. Are bullshit spec being given with these cars? Or it's true. More torque and power with these small engines? How can that be?
1.5 turbo is a lot more powerful than 1.5L non turbo. Turbo gives much more torque and that’s how technology advances. Manufacture cannot bullshit tech specs. Drive the car and you will be able to tell. My research also says 224Nm on 2.4L 2006 Camry.
Hei ! I just got my mg4 luxury. I’m used to drive a Tesla.
Now I have an “issue”
The car will start always driving on its own whether it’s on Drive or Reverse. How do I turn that off ?
I don’t want the car to move if I don’t tell it to move. Please somebody help me 😬
Need to get it checked by the MG workshop.
I find three bars in ACC to be more like 2.5 seconds.
Thanks for sharing the information. Good to know.
I wish the car would remember some of the settings. This is one of the biggest downsides for me. I very much doubt e.g. driving mode setting has anything to do with the safety ratings. Also, I have heard the lane keeping assist can suddenly try drive you to the ditch with quite agressive turning of the wheel if the lane markings are not the best - such a pain if you have to remember to turn it off to drive safely just so that the manufacturer can get the safety rating and you essentially drive dangerously because of this. If the setting will not be saved, at least the manufacturer should put in the resources needed to make it operate up to standard! I wonder how it will work in e.g. snowy conditions. Love the car, but the seemingly a bit dangerous assist systems need some work.
Drive mode goes back to default is certainly not related to the safety rating but MG isn't the only brand who does this. It is fairly easy to personalize the drive mode button so one click would do the work.
@@JerryPanandCars Great video - however, I only agree to a certain point here. All due respect, its not one click!
Its many steps:
1) Take your eyes of the road,
2) "swipe to settings",
3) "click mg pilot",
4) "find setting for pilot mode"
5) "click the TJA or ACC".
6) Then click back.
- All this is easily achieved when parked, but you need this while driving, such as driving in to a TRAFFIC JAM!!! situation, with cars everywhere! :)
Switching Tja / ACC should be accessible _directly_ from the star/favourite button on the left, so I dont have to take my eyes of the road :) Not hidden in some submenu.
I know; You can put "Driving Settings" on the favourite button, true, but you still have to click MG Pilot and then locate ACC or TJA.
STILL you have to take your eyes off the road.
So Stupid.
Its a fantastic car and I love it, but please stop defending stupid implementations from lack of real life testing.
@ I thought my previous comment was regarding drive mode selection going default normal. That has nothing to do with ACC / TJA. ACC / TJA doesn’t go back to one setting default. As long as you have set it up when it is parked, it will memorise your setting even if you switch off and on again.
Great vid Jerry!
Thanks for the support.
