Geofassi Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 Hi, My 2006 2.4 petrol Hybrid Alphard stoped and refused to start and run for more than a few seconds, to cut a long story short the technician at the garage in Grimsby found that the road battery was dead and that there was a fault in one of the cells in pack2.He has now identified the faulty cell does any one know where he would be able to purchase a replacement. Any help would be appreciated I don’t think distance should be a problem as if discharged fully the cell could be curriered to the garage.

CharlieAlphaWhiskey Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 Hi i just had the same on my 2004 Hybrid and got it towed to UK Hybrid Automotive in Perivale, West London. They had to replace the entire hybrid battery, despite the initial diagnosis that it was just a faulty cell. Expensive and I’m regretting the hybrid decision intensely! Anyway - to answer your question UK Hybrid in London might sort it for you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geofassi Posted November 16, 2022 Author Share Posted November 16, 2022 Thanks for the reply, unfortunately nothing is cheap for hybrids although very good when they are running. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has been importing Bongos for ages and Alphie for almost as long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
