Thanks to those that reached out. Pleased to say after new cat fitted along with some minor pipework changed van is now good to go. Cheers :)

Thank you so much for that info Dezufo, much appreciated. Tbh I kind of expected some work might be needed as van is quite old now but still in v good condition. New catalytic converter going in tomorrow with lamda sensor being cleaned at same time. Hopefully after that it will pass MOT. I'll lyk :) thanks again

Hi All. Just been advised my 2003 Alphie failed MOT on exhaust emissions. Garage advised I can try have more repairs done but if still failed for emissions it might need a catalytic converter. Does anyone have an idea on cost and even part number for such? Thanks

For any Alphard owners in Glasgow and central Scotland I can highly recommend C and C exhausts. Based at Hillington industrial area ,Campbell is extremely fair cost wise and will tell you honestly the condition of the current exhaust system without trying to sell a complete system if not needed.

Hi All. I'm thinking of getting a power bank so I can go off grid for a couple of days..and want to power 500w heater occasionally and travel kettle. Does anyone gave any experience of using one? Are they any good and how long might it last? A day or 2 or not as long. Been looking at a Bluetti 1800 w. Thanks in anticipation. Ian Y

Hi Devonia. I had to hsve these bushes replaced earlier this year. Local garage did it and tbh they had a heck of a job. Took ages to remove and replace. Cost approx £1700. Expensive but it's the first big job I've had to have done. Wish you good luck

Thanks all for your help. PZ I think you might be right, as I said, I heard a beep as I started up and it was probably the camera button. Will give it a go. Thanks again

Hi. The yellow and green guidelines suddenly disappeared from my reversing camera (think I heard a beep before they did so) does anyone have an idea how I can get them back. Red line us still there. 2003 Alphard. Thanks

Chris if it's any help, I have a 2003 alphard and have been using E10 fuel for 1k miles now and all OK so far. This without doing anything to the van. Fingers crossed it stays that way Ian y
