I’ve just bought an Alphard 2012 hybrid which is giving me problems,I have found a garage that will do some work on it including under sealing and are very nice to deal with.

They have the kit to test hybrid’s but it will not connect to the Alphard!!

I’ve had a local auto electrician look at the problem with the window switches on the drives door that will not work and will not reset as they should unable to fix.

Will give the garage in Pool a try.

The Portsmouth garage I am using are Smith & Co Tel 02392 170040

Unit D Highgrove industrial Park Portsmouth PO3 5QQ

I found the problem with the windows not working, a brake in the loom the black wire and the white wire were broken soldered a link in black to black and white to white all now working. It's the loom that runs alone the driver's door step.

Hello Amina,

 

You should contact Gibbs Automotive again.

 

A member has been in contact with the owner of Gibbs Automotive on your behalf.

 

The owner has confirmed that they do work on Toyota Alphards.

Amina,

 

The Alphard and Vellfire are the same vehicle.

But there are detail differences.

 

What parts are you looking for ?

General service part numbers are available in the service section.

 

Do you know your model number ?

 

If you can send a Private Message to Picasso, and list the parts you need, and your registration, he will probably be able to give you the part numbers.

 

To enable us all to help you, you need to be much more specific in specifying your needs.

 

You could try Toyota/Alphard/epc.com; but you will need to be proficient at reading vehicle drawings.

 

Did you contact Gibbs Automotive again yet; as I suggested ? However, don't expect them to have all the parts in stock !

Hello,

I am in SE London (Eltham) & have a Vellfire 2013 Automatic (2AZ-FE 2362cc DBA-ANH20W-NRXGK).
The (auto) gears have suddenly stopped working.

 

Any suggestions of a garage/mobile mechanic in the SE London/M25 area who deal with Vellfire auto transmission problems?

 

The car is immobile so a mobile mechanic would be great, in case the issue can be fixed without needing to tow the car to a garage.

 

I tried calling a few local garages specialising in auto transmissions but they do not deal with this car.

 

Thank you.

Hello Minhaz,

I've had mixed experience in Inverness.
It seems that there is a good garage in Edingburgh (see video), I just cannot understand what the garage name is.

So if anyone has a recommendation for the highlands or Edi, I'd love to find a mechanic that knows Alphards (and can source the part too)
