Rear usb charger
Chris.ac replied to Voodoo101's topic in Toyota Alphard & Vellfire Club Forum (2008 - 2015)
Link? This size socket is not the same as the front ones, is it more like the shape of the 10 series switchs -
Any idea what this can be?
Chris.ac replied to Lesz's topic in Toyota Alphard & Vellfire Club Forum (2008 - 2015)
It is a 3 way cigarette lighter socket. It's probably wired into the existing cig socket. -
I think you'd need to look at the lexus model alphard for 18" and I don't believe any are in this country! Try searching Japanese or UAE sites

Two plates for the 20 series: 42661-58060 (ours) and 42661-58190 Unfortunately, the drawings do not show clearly what these say.

I have the same 58060 door sticker - 2010 GGH20 (350G) Alphard

would be great if the original posters with the issue could reveal what the problem was. I still think it was related to some device fitted, either that or there is some part of the wheel speed sensors not sending the correct data to the ECU, a dodgy converter for the km/H to mph could do this, maybe some poor installation done with those cheap wire splice connectors rather than soldered joints. All the errors point towards something like this.

Boot space

if you give your passengers in the rear the same legroom as on a Mercedes c class, you'll have plenty of room. -
it wouldn't surprise me if you were able to unlock pal mode on the dvd, back in the 90s I was forever using engineering codes to unlock NTSC mode for Japanese movies. Usually done via a key combo on remote. Try looking for some alpine codes and give it a try
-
yeah my remote was missing, too. I did get a small remote that belongs to a missing aftermarket radar/GPS unit. The remotes are available online, but cost a fair chunk of change, I reckon these are the kind of things that going missing in transit, as small and light and easy to sell.

trim level. My 20 series came with 17

using the deicer is a good idea, actually, if you look at the wiring diagrams, you will find that wiring already runs to the switches console to the right of the steering wheel, where a deicer switch would have been fitted in one of the blank spots, so you could also add a switch with a camera logo (various ones on eBay/Amazon) to let you turn off power if needed, then you could use the relay side of the circuit to provide a higher power feed for usb. It's smart.
-
because the vehicle is an import, it will default to the standard rate which is now £295. That default value trumps all other considerations, even the fact a 20 series is equivalent to euro VI. If it didn't default to that, we would actually be worse off, based on weight and engine size would push us into the £480 category. so I'm not going to rock the boat arguing with the DVLA!

Teekay, if you own a Windows laptop, your cheapest option really is to buy a fob/blank key, and a copy of techstream with a vci dongle. The fob takes less than 5 minutes to program, add long as you have one working fob, getting the blank cut - some timpsons will do it, or other independents.

both EWD(electric wiring diagram) and repair manual (full disassembly, diagnostic, reassembly, drawings etc) can be found here: http://zatonevkredit.ru/schemes/path/90a45b34bb471b85daf79431205dd16c7c467f0244212cbdcef32ace4c2ad21607a3b456872cdb27d1c6c7d878f8bbac80f22ace926c5fb60cc03873eb853f43b292ad84033de4642e http://zatonevkredit.ru/repair_manuals/viewdoc/AWI4O_qhU9h2CeTmduUr

Interchangeable seats
Chris.ac replied to Frank1965's topic in Toyota Alphard Club Forum (2002 - 2008)
its not just the swivel aspect at the front, if you look at older Regius (chassis prior to alphard), the front seats swivelled, but you had to slide them first to allow the seats to clear the B pillar. Saying that, maybe regius seats are worth looking at? Unfortunately I no longer have one to take measurements, the chassis is pretty much the same, so perhaps it had compatible mounting points. -
you may find one, but you will need to search malaysian or russian groups, which makes it a lot harder!

Audio message on start up
Chris.ac replied to Tango2410's topic in Toyota Alphard Hybrid (2002 - 2008)
On my 2010, the car tells you the date in Japanese, then the ETC (Japanese tollroad system) tells you the card is not inserted. It will also wish you merry christmas, apparently, if you drive it on the 25th. -
Beeps on ignition on?
Chris.ac replied to Sam.richo's topic in Toyota Alphard Club Forum (2002 - 2008)
could be several things, but I have a 20series so cannot confirm, do you have a dashcam or lanekeep assist? does you headunit have an sd card slot for maps etc? ETC was one option I was thinking, my one is linked via headunit so it actually talks via the drivers side speaker rather than beeping. I did get beeping when i left a rucksack on passengers seat, as it has a pressure sensor that actives beeping if seatbelt is not connected. Something else it could be is dirty sonar sensors.
