Hello, I've recently purchased and Alphard and it's been great, however, the check engine light kept coming on intermittently after driving for a while. The seller came and checked it out and I've been told that the speed sensor on my Alphard is faulty.

 

I've been sent the part, but I'm having trouble finding a garage to fit it. A few have said "nah we don't touch imports." 

 

Is it difficult to replace one by yourself or is it quite involved? I can't find much info about it. 

 

Also, is this a common predicament anyone else faces? Going to garages in the UK but not getting a lot of help? Is kind of worrying for the future. 

 

Hi I have been getting engine warning.light come on when I get to around 100 kh. Then if I stop and switch off and start again.all OK until I do the same. Do you think same.problem speed sensor.
