A lot of insurance will allow you to use good second-hand parts if new parts are not available

Really sorry to see this happen to you . you will be able to get most parts through your local toyota dealer if I was you get a price for all the parts then tell your insurance company they won't write it off if you want tell me what parts you want and your vin number I will give you all the correct part no.s to give toyota .

Glad you got it sorted

You have definitely blown a fuse there are 4 fuse boxes on the alphard your going to have to check all your fuses if you have a English owners handbook it will tell your fuse locations I hope you get it sorted .

Let's hope you get it sorted

The oe part no. Is 1604128610

Some toyota dealers don't have japanese lookup system if you supply a oe number they will find out the price for you if you don't know oe number if you want give me your vin number I will give you the oe number

Hi is this the sensor at the rear behind the wheel

I went to look at a Alphard in Norwich a good Alphard dealer company name Andy'S imports i think if you googled him i bet he would do the replacement rack for you or know some one who would replace it. the rack to buy is £342.00 but you get £150.00 back when you send your old core back which they arrange free collection of . i only buy parts from these guys as they are local to me and always give me good advice its the reason why i bought the Alphard.

there is a company in coventry my home town where i buy all my alphard bits they also own a steering rack company i have asked for you they have a rack on the shelf fully rebuilt and tested 12 months warranty they do a exchange service

the fluid is red to be honest before putting more fluid in i would get the rack tested and rebuilt as i do believe you have a seal blown

If topping up from empty jack front up both wheels of ground topfluid up and at same time get some one to turn steering wheel from 10 o'clock till 2 o'clock backwards and forwards this will stop you blowing the seals in the rack if you turn full lock each time you will blow all seals in rack the steering rack pump is driven by a belt. The weakest seal and I guess this is what has gone is the inner tie rod seal which is where the steering rack gaiter is .

You can not

Sorry screen kept freezing

I have been having a problem with my alphard on and Off for while now intermittent electric fault some times my radio will turn off when driving at same time electric mirrors won't work then 24 hours later all works again this does not happen all the time can be fine for weeks now it has gone off again this time its been off 2 days so I guess now its permanent till I get it fixed yes I have checked fuses everything OK. All I ask is does anyone know if ring mirrors share the same electrical circuit

Well Birmingham there are signs at end of roads saying your approaching low emissions zone to be honest nightmare in Birmingham easy to miss these signs if you have a tomtom satnav you can add them to your points of interest so sat nav will warn you in advance

Ultra low emissions zone alphards 2006 on wards are low emissions so a lot of towns now have low emissions zones such as London when I put my registration in says I have to pay £15 to enter where if I go birmingham , bath or Southampton I don't have to pay london uses a different system

Website says you will be charged the dealer who I bought my alphard off in the Midlands based in dudley said I will be OK in Birmingham but not London Also my dealer said late 2006 onwards are only ulez friendly
