Honestly, buy Toyota shims. Toyota do brake service kits that have the shims. I'm still using the original, which are designed to last the lifetime of the vehicle. Some owners throw out the originals if shims are included with pads, that's usually a mistake!

The bulbs are listed on the top of the headlamps. Embossed into the frame. Eg. On my 2010 Alphard, the high beam are hb3 And the dipped are d4s

Could you take photo of your dash? If it the newer one that has a display with a navigation menu?

Not seen this, makes sense because the speed limit in Japan is 60. Maybe it is configurable via the obd2 port using techstream

I don't have the 10 series cdrom, you need to ask Atlanticcobra2023.

Yep, i removed bumper, removed reflectors, and fitted foglights in my lunch break. Took less than 30 mins, and I'm not a mechanic.

I have the same error code. I've not gone any further to investigate. There is a section on the ac in the maintenance manual, but the website is offline at moment. I'll try and post it here later. I've also gone back and corrected the typos, using a mobile keyboard and it likes to auto correct incorrectly.

I'm pretty sure it's the same process, this seems to be a Toyota standard from early 2000s

The clean icon is just part of the climate controls, every 10 mins it will activate the Ioniser to curb the door, clean just means it completed that cycle. Here is a helpful PowerPoint doing so the electrical systems in your 20 series. https://slideplayer.com/slide/10248235/

If you want to try without waiting, this video does the steps, ignore the fact it's not same Toyota or headunit, the exact same process works. Press start button twice without brake pressed ( so it didn't start) hold auto and recirculate mode button, then start vehicle. Everything should flash, then press the circulate button for it to run through all the tests, it will count up from 1. Once it cycles to 1 again, press the auto button and your error codes will be displayed

Yes. You can get an error code displayed and a test of the systems without connecting anything. I'm just shopping at moment, but give me an hour and I'll let you know which buttons to press, it should be holding the auto and recirculate button whilst car is in ign mode, but I'm confirm. It will then cycle through all the motor and airflow settings and climate mode switching and present a code where the temperature is usually displayed

I can't because your email address is not a Google one, if you could pm me an email address that is compatible, such as yahoo or Gmail, i will add you

Pm me your email address

Pm me your email address and I'll add you to my Google drive

We have to be careful, the material is copyright. I found the hybrid maintenance cdrom iso on a Russian website as a torrent. Trying to find the link again

2009 and 2011 are the same chassis.

@twcut Have to be careful with AliExpress claims. Make sure they specify original Toyota 360 degree 4 cameras (which was only 270 degree, 3 cameras before 2012) And not aftermarket 360 setups. Sometimes they give an external module that converts the output from the park assist ecu to a composite camera feed. In reality, if you are going for a Birdseye view 360 setup, you'll be better off with an aftermarket kit due to improvements in resolution and low light imaging. The claim of 360 working generally means the headunit is fitted with the module, as this is an optional module that the cheaper units sell separate, and it's required to allow the software to load.

Nice. I recommend Valenti reflector/led. There are 2 bumper designs on the 20 series, so you will need to make sure to order the correct design (there are 3 design types on Valenti website) All info is on the main thread. https://uk.alphardclub.com/forums/topic/1222-rear-foglights-better-integration/

Where there is a will, there is a way. Depends on your headunit. Some have dual Bluetooth, so separate connections for phone and media. Some have an aux input on the rear of the centre armrest storage console. Some you can use a Bluetooth to fm adaptor. Try this site, has lots of information on the 10 series headunit operation. Try posting an image of your headunit so others can advise better http://eightseaters.blogspot.com/search/label/HU Operation

Check the thread i started. It depends on your budget, and how legal you want it. If you do it the way a few of us have, you'll fit a new indicator stalk, and replace the reflectors with a e marked retro reflector with leds

JDM vehicles in general do not have English options on the head units designed for Japan (due to custom satnav, connectivity to japans road communication network, radio frequency ranges that are not generally used elsewhere etc, unless it is a headunit also used on the export models for Hong Kong or Malaysia, in which case they tend to have lower spec headunits in English. You most certainly will need to get used to the interface, which didn't take long to be fair, or swap it out for a uk headunit I've owned import Toyota's since 1999, and just never bothered replacing the fitted units, they do what they are designed to do. Play music. Cheapest fix is a radio band expander for about £15, and a Bluetooth to FM adaptor if an aux in is not available.

Can also find the maintenance manual here. http://zatonevkredit.ru/repair_manuals/viewdoc_html/AWHwhg3wBFyj9RK3uOsv

Parking ECU, the sonar sensors, and cameras ( on the higher equipment spec) route through that. The reason it connects to amp is that utilise the drivers side dash speakers
