Vellfire 2.4 Filters
Rojie replied to Jackie298's topic in Toyota Alphard & Vellfire Club Forum (2008 - 2015)
I believe there is on my 2006 Behind the passenger glove box (which is easy to remove on my 2006). I checked mine, super clean. -
Great idea, the list. Let us all know which main beam leds you fitted.

Hello Sarah, I am sorry to hear of your plight; I am sure we all are. As Liam correctly says, 20% went to VAT. Unlikely you will ever see that again ! However, there is a For Sale section here, in the Forum, and these vehicles are very popular at the moment. You can also upload, drag and drop, some photos in that section so potential buyers can see what your vehicle is like. What options you have, etc. Mention of the converting company can help informed buyers. There are the other channels, Autotrader, Ebay, Facebook. I assume you mean £24000. Something is not right here. Are there any typos in your posting. In my opinion, a 2004 conversion should not have cost anywhere near £24000. Let us know what vehicle you have, what options are fitted, engine size. Why do you wish to sell so soon ? Did you buy it without ever seeing it ? Distance selling regulations may apply.

Vellfire 2.4 Filters
Rojie replied to Jackie298's topic in Toyota Alphard & Vellfire Club Forum (2008 - 2015)
Hello, and welcome to the Forum. Toyota Direct is one option, but you will need the part numbers. EuroCar Parts, at a guess. There is a thread on this Forum, I'll try and find it, but, I think, it tends to cover the older cars. ToyotaAlphardEPC.com is good if you can read mechanical drawings. Good Luck. -
Only after start up, or sometimes quiet and then rattles later in your drive ? Do you have VRC and TRC ?
-
Be careful if you 'buy back' the vehicle as Mike suggests you could. If you do .... The insurance company can, and probably will, categorise it as a category N or Category S. Neither category prevents you from returning the vehicle (legally) to the road. BUT, as the category stays with the vehicle for its life until formally scrapped / destroyed, the resale value will probably plummet. Just another factor in your decision making process ! Best of luck, whatever you decide.

WANTED - Series 10 Facelift left rear tailgate light
Rojie replied to WP1's topic in Toyota Alphard Used Parts & Accessories
Have you checked out the ToyotaAlphardEPC.com Amayama seem to have them for about £110 plus shipping from UAE, just for the lens, not all the bits and pieces ? -
The link didn't work for me ! Probably me. What engine do you have ? 3.0L or 2.4L

WANTED - Series 10 Facelift left rear tailgate light
Rojie replied to WP1's topic in Toyota Alphard Used Parts & Accessories
Sorry, my mistake, I thought that was the facelifted Gen 1. As you say, it isn't. I need to read what is says, not what I want it to say. There must be a wrecked vehicle, somewhere in London, surely. -
Good. So glad to have helped you, and maybe other members in Cornwall too.

WANTED - Series 10 Facelift left rear tailgate light
Rojie replied to WP1's topic in Toyota Alphard Used Parts & Accessories
Take a look at ebay 185150191274 Seller assumes all responsibility for this listing. -
Hi David, Now I AM confused ! The vehicle doesn't have a VIN number ! How can that be ! Have you checked all the labels on the vehicle ? My VIN is on the front of the B pillar nearside. Don't expect the VIN number to resemble a European one. It will be, for example, ANHW10, then a serial number. Mine is TA MNH10W 0099xxx. (where x is a digit). Do you have a receipt, or the auction sheet ? It will be on the auction sheet, and/or the export sheet. If you have the auction sheet, send me a copy by PM, or I'll send you a copy mine by PM. Back to square one. Those white brackets are only 10 to 15 pounds each, not sure without checking, how many are needed. Have you looked at the EPC drawings. If the reinforcement bar is damaged, that could be expensive. With respect for the Loss Adjuster they won't have a clue. Probably never dealt with an Alphard before. There is lots of 'stuff' attached to the front valance, so a second hand replacement could have an inflated price. Have you checked any of the Alphard scrap yards yet ? If the tabs on the front valance (which I cannot see) are broken that could be the issue. £1500 could buy a lot of time from a fibreglass fabricator. I'll check out some potential sources for a new front. Did the assessor mention anything about the bumper beam, or any structural parts ? Hang in there. Someone bumped my Fiesta, Insurance wanted to write it off. Slightly dented door, NO other issues. I still drive it daily !
-
With a quick look at the EPC, your £1500 looks quite high. Compared to the 1500 most of the parts look reasonably priced. The one part I don't have a price for, yet, is the reinforced bumper beam. Are there some tabs on the bumper that have been snapped off ?I still can't see the damage. Just another wild idea, as I am sure you are aware, there are more than one front valance for these vehicles. Is your machine a Gen 1, or a Gen 1 updated ? My guess is it will be easier to get a front valance the earlier the car is.
-
Hi David, Please forgive my ignorance. I don't see any damage to the bumper. I do see that the bumper has come away from the white plastic moulding. Is there any damage to the white moulding ? I'll take a look at the ToyotaAlphardEPC.com drawings. Perhaps you could. It may help you understand what is broken, and what is not.

Cathy, They are all imports. To date, Toyota have never sold Alphards and Vellfires in the UK. That is why Toyota in Truro won't work on yours.

Co2 emission and Road Tax
Rojie replied to Kornus's topic in Toyota Alphard & Vellfire Club Forum (2008 - 2015)
Thanks Nov, you saved me a lot of time. I did find this, and lots of other stuff that confused me. In trying to help Kornus, I spent ages waiting for the DVLA. I discovered I never received my own V5 !!! Fortunately, the car is registered to me. Phew -
Sorry to hear your news. How heavy was the hit ? I assume you need more than a new front bumper .

Co2 emission and Road Tax
Rojie replied to Kornus's topic in Toyota Alphard & Vellfire Club Forum (2008 - 2015)
I pay £280. I looked for my V5 yesterday evening; but have not found it yet. I also checked DVLA, for my vehicle information. It's all there; but not the emission level ! What class of vehicle or you trying to register it as. -
Hello Cathy, Welcome to the Forum. If your Alphie is still under warranty, surely you should return it to your seller and have the work done under the warranty. Having said that, I know many Toyota dealers are 'huffy' about working on imports. My local dealer is Snows. They have a larger Toyota dealership in Plymouth. I'll check see if there is a Toyota dealer in Truro. There is also a Toyota specialist in Bodmin. His name escapes me but I can find it if you need it. He should be OK with the engine side of things. Which warning light is one ? Engine light I assume ? V6 3.0L or 4 cylinder 2.4L. Hybrid ?

Welcome to the Forum. Looks gorgeous. Happy Motoring.

Insurance Companies for Your Toyota Alphard
Rojie replied to Alphard Club's topic in Toyota Alphard Club Forum (2002 - 2008)
Hi Jenny, Seems like Churchill have got themselves confused. Just be aware I was with Aviva until I informed them of my rear conversion. Kaput ! Have you converted ? If so, beware. -
Stereo upgrade with dual camera input
Rojie replied to Jason cox's topic in Toyota Alphard Club Forum (2002 - 2008)
You're right, this is covered elsewhere. Try to Search Head Unit Replacement. My understanding is that extra care is needed with the Theatre System, otherwise certain features could be lost. I'll sure you'll get lots of replies, but, in the meantime try the search. -
What code(s) are you getting.
