  1. Nice to know, although I don't have this problem (yet).
  2. Please do.
  3. Hi Pritch, Which company did your conversion ?
  4. Hi again. When can I expect the photos ? Please.
  5. I have not noticed this on my recently acquired Alphard. I will check. I do have a Jaguar which, when started revs at about 1200 rpm. As it warms for the first 10 seconds or so, the revs diminish to about 750. This is normal, as the engine is run a little rich to start with, then is leaned out. I assume this will happen with Alphie as the weather gets colder. I assume that if your Alphie is revving to less than, say, 1300; it is OK, above that I think you need a mechanic!
  6. Search this site. There is lots of information herein. E10 is OK
  7. Can anyone who has a model that has front curtains, that is curtains immediately behind the front row seats, advise me of the year and trim level (MX, AS, etc) of their vehicle, as I am interested in retro fitting these to my 2006 MZG .
  8. Try Jap Autos, Southampton.
  9. Make sure the volume control (top RHS on/off button) is not turned to the lowest volume. Press the third button from the left on the bezel; that should bring up the DVD settings Press sound to get the faders etc. Within the faders there does not appear to be a master volume adjustment Return is top right legend. ASL allows you to crudely adjust the sound presentation. Have you recorded any CDs to your hard drive ? Can you hear them ? Press Disc to switch between disc and HDD. One of the joys, frustrations actually, of Alphie ownership is learning to read Japanese. I will check my HDD handbook and try to understand the squiggles......... I doubt any of this helps you but I hope it does.
  10. I don't have an answer for you; just a couple of suggestions. As you don't mention Theatre System, I am assuming you don't have it, (nor do I). There are settings within the DVD menus to change the stereo balance, front to rear balance, and various DSP functions. I would suggest you try and check those (and make sure the steering wheel volume control is not at its lowest. I will go an have a play, to discover if I can actually help.
  11. Try your nearest Kwikfit, or other tyre fitting business ? Are your tyres newish, or almost done ?
  12. Hello, I don't have any panels in those locations either. Where did you get your floor mats ?
  13. Try your local Toyota dealer. They will need your model number. ANH10, for example. (Try your auction sheet) With patience, you can get the actual part number from Toyota Alphard epc on Google. (I found the part number for mine in two minutes). Toyota Direct will get it for you, but you need your model number and the part number.
  14. Hi Barry, I hope someone else can be more helpful than me ! I have been through (my English ) manual. There seems to be (at least) five fuse boxes ! I checked the individual fuse listings and no fuses are explicitly designated as for the the fuel pump. I don't have a service manual to refer to. Sorry.
  15. Please report to all us Alphie owners how successful your TerraClean is.
  16. No, it almost certainly does not. Mine doesn't. Check your registration number on the TfL website.
  17. According to the TfL website, my 2006 3 litre is a chargeable vehicle.
  18. I went with Aviva. Three cars, Alphard, Jaguar XJR and a Ford Fiesta. About £550 fully comp on all three.
  19. You must have caught them on a good day ! They were by far the most expensive I had a quote from. And their APR was 40 per cent; so I hope you are not paying monthly. Also the actual underwriter was unknown to me.
  20. No. Do you have the auction sheet ? The model number is clearly visible in the middle of the second row.
  21. First, try your auction sheet. Second, try your door frames; A post, but probably B post. Or engine bay somewhere ! The 'plate' should give you the model number, and lots of other stuff. Do you know your trim level ? It was a MZG wasn't it. Models numbers change with engine size and drive system. Is yours Gen 1 or 2. I think it was 1 from memory. If it has the 3 litre it is Gen 1.
  22. 80 foot pounds, 110 Newton Metre. I found this on the internet, in several places, NOT from my handbook !
  23. Rereading this, it looks very wrong! But is lifted from the manual I have. I just checked the manual again. This IS what id says. Methinks it should be litres per 100km ! Sorry.
  24. According to my handbook, it depends on which model you have. The M series is quoted as 8.9 lt per km, whereas The A series is quoted as 9.4 lt per km. These figures, I assume, are average consumption (in Japan, if that makes a difference, altitude, traffic density, etc). I have not had my M series long enough to suggest what mileage you should get.
  25. ebay item 313588949295. Shop is closed this week, so try next week. This is odysseycarpets
