    I had this problem while test driving.

     

    Apparently it was caused by the loose chip earth wire.

    I seems to have a similar problem on a 2002 alphard 2Azfe fwd 2.4L,as it works very rarely when it is too much raining.Otherwise most of the times it seems to reaching till 20 mph and then jumping to 30 mph and then coming back to 20,even at higher speed.On rare occasions on some days the speedometer seems to be fine.One garage advised to change speed sensor but was of no use after changing.I believe it is loose earth,as it works on heavy rains some how,but not sure where to find this loose earth issue.Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

  3. Does the door open on a slightly inclined driveway.It seems like about to open half way and then stop in between and closes automatically.

    Also I tried from a levelled surface as well,it seems to be doing the same,trying to open half way and close.The same thing happening when trying to close as well through the key or the button.

    I can mostly open it with a bit of force manually and close as well in the same way.Any ideas please or is this need any reset of problems with motor?

    Thanks

    I have a 2.4 alphard and find that with e10 fuel the mpg is severely affected so is the power and the engine seems noisier ( probably pinking) using e5 now at a premium it’s perfect again . Has anyone else noticed this .

    I have seen a similar performance difference between e10 and e5.I was continuously using e10 as I was told by the dealer it is OK.Issues I have noticed is it was not accelerating when I need it to be and was sluggish going above 70 mph. 

    When changed to e5 it seems to be smooth.Mine is 2.4 2AZFE engine and one of the oldest cars probably 2002.
