Hi BigNev Thanks for your message and apologies for delay in getting back to you. I am reasonably happy with Apec red but heard from a few mechanics now that Brembo were far better just that when replacing discs the pads would have to be replaced also. It is always good getting opinions on such like from folks with the experience.Will be ordering in the next few days so at this stage my thoughts are my van is not a racing machine but in the event it can stop a few yards quicker safety is possibly bettered.Recently our mechanic suggested put Brembo discs pads at front and at rear less important as 75% breaking power is all on the front in general. I am no mechanic and like to get opinions as money is not something I can afford to waste. Will let you know but no complaints about Apec red they are possibly all that is needed. Thanks again

Hi Picasso Thanks am getting pricing on a few and will be ordering later this week all you guys help is appreciated.thanks If you get a chance could you let me know if there is a place prefer 2nd hand a indicator lense clear part for my headlamp and cluster at back and reflector Photo attached As a club does someone have a master catalogue on said spares so all can view for easy ordering perhaps.

No problem and will do Apec Red is what is on now but if discs are needed want them same brand Apec blue are seemingly not so good as Apec Red but looking too compare and listen to other folk like you for guidance. Don't mind paying a little more if better but obviously don't have money to throw or waste. Will let you know how I go thanks

Many thanks Steve Appreciate your help Brian

Replacing front and rear discs and pads lots of different manufacturers out there are any better or are all alike. Any advice welcomed. Thanks in advance. Original from Toyota a lot more expensive are they worth it? Toyota Alphard 2.4 2007 petrol

Hi Guys.Hope all keeping well and looking forward to another year. I too have a cracked/broken lens see photo,indicator still working. Do I have to replace whole mirror, any second ones available or can the lense be replaced on its own trying to keep costs down.Any help appreciated colour silver passenger side Alphard 2.4 2007 Reg TK07PDC

Hi Michael Thanks for all your efforts and time,this was very kind of you to try and help. We will keep our eyes open and for next year hopefully we will find something suitable. Have a safe journey if coming to Scotland but watch out for snow as I heard it is coming soon. Again all the very best for now and thanks for your time and efforts. Best regards Brian

Hi Michael Thinking about something for additional living space and don't want to go into Megabucks. Would be happy to buy second hand if one for sale and happy to pay extra for carriage. Lovely campervan for my wife and I and our dog but extra space would be great. Our van has the side kitchen fitted. Look forward to hearing from you with any more info, thanks in advance.

Hi Pipsyp Thanks for all your help here you have been fantastic, thank you. I have no idea what oil is in van but the one I intend going with is as below.Should I do a oil wash or just drain and leave plenty time to drain out before putting this in. Got this one from the site you suggested, spoke to a guy there and he said that A5/B5 is all good with the info you gave me earlier. Trouble is you don't really know what garage puts in to your car. But do take your comments on mixing oils but whether drain time should be flushed out at same time is a point, any comments welcome.
