  1. Found this after a google search. https://club.autodoc.co.uk/manuals/how-to-change-pollen-filter-on-toyota-alphard-h1-replacement-guide-34124
  2. Thank you for pointing me in the right direction, much apreciated.
  3. Hi Can anybody help? Where is the cabin filter on a 2003 3.0 alphard and is it easy to change?
  4. Further down on that page is this. 'We bought our Alphard with no intention of towing but getting back into sailing l wanted to tow my dinghy. l contacted the dvsa and was specifically told l could not tow without any weights on the VIN. They gave me a list of companies approved to issue a new VIN. l contacted a company called SVTech who issued me with a new VIN with a gvm of 1880 kg and gtw 3130 kg. This was done in conjunction with data from Toyota. So not a huge towing capacity but legal. My ins co would not insure without this. DVSA confirmed once my new plate was in place l was good to go. Total cost £144 . Took a few months but l’m happy l’m fully insured and legal.'
  5. Oops my mistake, and It seems there is no similar place for cars 😥
  6. Id be very interested in anything you come up with either way, for the moment Im sticking with the cycle carrier, and you'd probably get away with a small trailer but say a caravan might be a different kettle of fish altogether and of course theres always the insurance aspect, they do love a get out of jail card😂
  7. Hi I read this,https://andrewsjapanesecars.com/japanese-import-towing-weights/ , and ended up more confused than when I started, although it seems to indicate that if theres no towing info on the vin plate, you could be on dodgy ground. My importer/supplier initialy mentioned the issue.
  8. Apparently you Can have your vehicle tested by this place and if it passes your vehicle is place on the ulez list. https://app.acuityscheduling.com/schedule.php?owner=17389716
  9. Hi I have a tow bar fitted to my 2003 alphard for a cycle rack but be careful. I was told that the Alphard is not rated ( weight wise) for towing so strictly speaking its illegal. If I have been misinformed then I apologise in advance.
  10. Hiya I must be just round the corner from you, small world, anyway the question is did you fit a head unit yourself? if you did was it easy? and what head unit did you fit? Thanks Andy
  11. Thank you for the info, much appreciated
  12. Hi Im the very happy owner of an alphard g 3l Looking forward to a long happy ownership
  13. my apologies I appear to have posted this enquiry twice
  14. My door mirrors fold out automatically but I have to fold them in manually, is there a switch to change this, is it faulty or is this just how they are?
