MG4 MY23: EDU coolant overheating message and power limitation
Symptoms
- EDU Coolant Overheating is displayed; power and speed limitation messages may follow. [1]
Possible causes
- The manual associates overheating protection with high temperatures, frequent starts/rapid acceleration and deceleration, prolonged travel on long gradients, or electric drive overload. [1]
Checks
- Stop safely to allow cooling and observe the warning; if it remains after about 20 minutes, park safely and seek assistance from an MG service provider. [1]
What to do
- Resume normal driving only after the temperature drops and the warning disappears; if a red warning of a serious electric drive fault appears, stop, switch off the vehicle power and contact a service provider immediately. [1]
