Alphard Club

on mine it was fitted in one of the the reverse lights and used a red LED bulb, completely seamless

i tell my wife it's my Japanese mistress, i have also noticed she says something different everyday. Also how she gets irate when parking close to something.

Icarsoft is a great scanner.

I would check to see if it has been disconnected because any excuse for a non-payout will happen

I am sure there will be a sequence you need to do to get it to connect however, on another note, be careful with these as it may invalidate your insurance unless you have declared it from the beginning. if you do declare then be careful they don't cancel the insurance. Seek advice before going anywhere near your insurance co. I have seen many people talk about insurance issues with these.

welcome to the club We're in Bournemouth

Just insured my 20 Series, Over £100 cheaper than AF and less Excess with Ageas. AF did compete but not with the Excess, so Japcover gave me a better deal all round. Speak to Bradley 01275 856618 https://www.japcover.co.uk

Hi Stephen, have you press the small button down and try and shift the lever whilst button is held down?? Also, may find that the brake pedal needs to be press down before shifting, there could be an issue with the witch on the pedal.

thats quite an expensive quote. i would say £1300-1500 Tops with profess autogas.

a friend and I changed mine. If you are not confident under the bonnet then i would say get it done by a mechanic. Its a mornings job. I do wonder how many people are driving around in a ticking time bomb, dealers will not tell you that it probably will need one at some point. Especially if they are over 10 years old and no record of it ever being done.

anyone else managed to cleaned their maf?

only thing with front swivels is that they sometimes raise the hight of the seats. OK if you are not overly tall. Interested in seeing costs for these though and how much they increase the seat height.

Hi Roger Its actually in the first post of this thread. I don't remember paying anything though.

Welcome to the Alphard Club!

mine just had one of the rear brake lights conerted, as the Alphard has more than 2 it makes it easy to convert one of them into a fog light.

bumping this to see if anyone else has had theirs done.. many alphards will need to have this recall done

i was with AF for a similar quote, weird why some are extortionate

I believe that if the car is over 10 years then wont need IVA, only an MOT, only Fog light and possibly speedometer converted. I am sure there will be some kind of import tax, as you cpuld sell the car a month later, but i am not sure on what this would be. there are a few import specialists like Algys https://www.algysautos.com/import-scheme-import-any-car-into-the-uk-from-japan

Definitely we should set one up, maybe at Gaydon Museum? as this has a great car park, held many of other car meets there. Almost mid country too and easy to get to.

welcome along
