Roof bars - advice please
Such a tin or worms - am seeing 'Jap import bars' for Β£300 plus but pretty sure any roof bar with a 'NO GUTTER' solution will work. Anyone here done the leg work with a Thule solution ? I'm not looking for a cheap solution but don't want to spend silly money for a camping trip twice a year. All knowledge greatly received Thanks Martyn

2010 Vellfire Running lean
MARTYN ODONNELL replied to MARTYN ODONNELL's topic in Toyota Alphard & Vellfire Club Forum (2008 - 2015)Just checking in on this thread Nev - Light still comes on but tends to be 'around town' - On a run its fine and yesterday it had and engine light illuminated and today it was fine ? Not especially worried but its annoying

2010 Vellfire Running lean
MARTYN ODONNELL replied to MARTYN ODONNELL's topic in Toyota Alphard & Vellfire Club Forum (2008 - 2015)Early reports seem good Nev - will keep you posted but so far so good with CATACLEAN product administered.

2010 Vellfire Running lean
MARTYN ODONNELL replied to MARTYN ODONNELL's topic in Toyota Alphard & Vellfire Club Forum (2008 - 2015)Thanks for the response Nev - It does come on when running petrol as well. - Did a 400 mile round trip last week and it ran perfect but the engine light turned on after 300 odd miles - stopped checked and was reporting one bank as running lean. Which is i guess why am asking and a tad concerned

2010 Vellfire Running lean
Hey My 2010 3.5 Vellfire has an LPG conversion. Not using it as i want to get it serviced so running 90% of the time on high octain petrol when i can get it. My engine warning light comes on occasionally and the OBDII reader always has the same 2 codes - 'System to lean on Bank 1' and 'System to lean on Bank 2' I ve been told this is happening because of the LPG situation but does anyone have any input, thoughts or experience to share ? Thanks Martyn

Beeping madness
I'm two days into my new love affair with my Vellfire and we've hit a bump. I need to de-beep all the doors - I have camping trips booked through the summer and it seems everytime i open the boot the entire campsite will know about it which ain't ideal. pretty sure my neighbours with houses will get annoyed at some point. Question - wheres the beeper and can i hit it with a hammer π

Sussex based Vellfire Guru.
Hey all Collected my new ride today after months of trawling the web - delighted with it after a smooth drive back to Brighton from Birmingham. However, I've a couple of things I'd like to get checked by a mechanic so wondered if anyone could recommend a safe pair of hand in the Brighton / sussex area with a code reader. ESC lights flashing (drives spot on) Front Windscreen washer not working although fill of juice(rear works fine) Cruse control not working as far as I can tell. Its got what i suspect is a Chinese branded UK converted Android (NOT APPLE PLAY sadly) touch screen which is obvs linked to the car on many levels. This is probs a different topic but feel its missing some functionality or perhaps need an update. None biggies but would like to address As I'm a new boy apologies in advance my 'many many' silly questions in the next few days and weeks π Thanks in advance for you wisdom Martyn
