My latest review of a rust converter primer
Ldrego ·I’ve just been sitting on this rust conversion primer solution to make sure it was decent. Tested on a rusty rear metal on the subframe. It performed superbly with just a layer of Matt black paint - 2 months on, enough confidence to underseal over it. The product is from carbusonic. Treating rust on rear subframe . Easy with Carbusonic rust converter primer.

Help with diagnosing code
Alexu ·Hello! Long time reader first time poster. I have a 2005 hybrid, and we have the dreaded p3125 code. I suspect a cooler pump, and have managed to get techstream going. I am hoping to get some second opinions of the output, or where I should be looking to confirm this. Is the MG1 temp a red herring? How about the high water temp? Also, if anyone else looking for help getting techstream going, there's a great article just search "techstream in 5 minutes. I also watched a video on YouTube by -
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 would look on eBay. If you search for "Alphard (breaking,braking)" (some people can't spell...) you may find a few people listing parts from their car for sale (often as '99p, this listing is for one wheel nut'). If you find the right car, message them and ask how much for the bumper. Be prepared to collect, as bumpers are awkward to ship. If doing the sale via eBay, the user will typically create a special listing for the parts you requested which you can 'buy it now'. Some professional breakers list and photograph every part, but this is a way of doing it without having to list thousands of parts. If you don't find anything there, create a saved search and enable email notifications and you'll get a daily email with search matches.

Help with diagnosing code
It has been a while since I needed to use Techstream, but I think if you go to System select or stored date where the code has been flagged up. Double click on the code which should open another page with the data, in the header or first line in the data list hopefully will be a three digit number. This goes with the main code P3125- xxx to give the cause of the fault, there are about 100 sub codes!!
