Big Brake Kits?
I'm finding my 2010 GGH25 a bit under-braked, can anyone recommend a brake upgrade that won't break the bank? I have looked at Brembo kits and the other big brands but don't really want to spend £2500 + just for the front. EBC do four new discs and pads for under £400 but I would like to upgrade the calipers ideally. Any suggestions/recommendations?

Hybrid Battery and Aux replaced
Hi folks i have a 2007/8 alphard. Ive replaced the aux battery and the main hybrid high voltage battery from a running vehicle. All the codes it had pointed to the HV battery. I checked them individually and more than 10 cells sat at 5v I replaced the cells all 7.4v and balanced . Granted not max charged but should still suffice to start the vehicle. I get the same noise As though it wasnts to start it says ready. You put it into drive and you get a humming sound and eventually it stops And

ULEZ Charge - How do I get my 2004 Hybrid reregistered so it is exempt from the ULEZ charge.
willS ·I have a hybrid 2004/2005 Alphard. On the V5C Log book, it just says Petrol. Does not say Hybrid or Electric on the fuel type and has nothing where the CO2 emissions should be. Has anyone else overcome this problem, had their log book changed so the car is exempt from the ULEZ charge, as it should be.

You need to obtain a Certificate of Conformity, CoC, from https://japaninspection.org/certificate-of-conformity-coc/ not Toyota. You fill out a couple of forms and email them back, if they can find the export cert for you Alphard they will be able to issue a CoC after you have given them some money, cheaper at the moment because of the exchange rate. On the CoC will be the emissions details and a statement that it complies with Euro 4 standard. Send a copy of the form along with your V5 to DVLA with a cover letter asking them to update your V5 with the emission details, they will also add your engine s/n. The lez's will only take the info from the DVLA so once your emissions are updated the various lez's will update your vehicle, including London ulez. 2003 Toyota Alphard 2.4 hybrid.
