Thanks @Chris.ac I did try contacting them but no reply. The struts are gas but I think these have separate height control cylinder. I'm gonna take my chances and ask a workshop to repressure the accumulator with nitrogen and hopefully the car will then lift.

Thanks both, I'll look to see if I can get a phone connected via the external input and use it that way or otherwise will look replacement unit.

Hi I Kristoff, I know it's been two.years but I've just seen your post and wondered if you had any success in updating the maps? I have the same head unit and am also wondering if.it.is possible. Thanks Dave

Hi All I have recently imported the Vellfire with has a Japanese Tien electronic Height and Damper control Control suspension system. I'm looking for some guidance please on recharging the height accumulator. The accumulator has a Schrader valve but I'm wondering if it should be recharge with nitrogen or hydraulic oil and to what pressure? . . unfortunately Tien UK are unable to offer any help on the Japanese system. Cheers Dave

Just introducing myself as a driver owner of a 2005 Alphard and 2010 Vellfire based in Reading. This club has been a great source of information so thanks to you all for your articles etc. I have recently imported the Vellfire and have use some of the information here to help me to understand bits and bobs and specifically to fit a rear fog light including replacement stalk for switching. So hello and hanks everyone. Dave

Did you manage to resolve this? I had a similar problem with the door not automatically clicking onto the rear latch after replacing my cable assembly following a jam. All appeared to work other than need to push it manually for the last 10mm to get it to click onto the rear latch. I tried to work out what the issue was by opening and closing and the the new cable jammed. I'm now reluctant to buy another until I figure out the cause of the 10mm issue with the latch. Any help appreciated. Thanks
