Neither, you can get an awning that provides shade just the same as a wind out does, but one of the advantages of useing one that fits on a c rail is that it does not increase the height of the vehicle plus it can be used when a driveaway is not attached

If you get a C rail fitted or a stiches & steel multi rail you can get small awnings that will simply slide into the rail, with very little increase in height in the case of the multi rail

Chris , for peace of mind you may want to consider fitting a digital temp gauge that way you can see what the actual temp is, I did it to my forester when the head gasket went awol and have now done it to my mnh15

Just had mine done by a local garage, he said he had to remove the engine mount to get at the bolt

I( have used Profess LPG to convert 3 of my vehicles Just used a local garage that is willing to fit owner supplid parts, I got the parts from Autodoc Both lower arms and ball joints plus tracking for £300 inc vat https://www.severnpointautomotive.co.uk/

I have no idea about the sensor ring as never looked at mine, did the person that replaced the sensor clear the fault codes?

I'd be interested in the event not too sure about the convoy

This might be a bit late but, to remove the whole unit use a flat thin trim removal tool, insert it between the unit and the lining at the end towards the rear of vehicle, push it in and it will push a metal retaining clip over, then lever that end up until it is clear of the lining and move the whole unit backwards until the 2 prongs at the front are clear, if the metal clip gets broken do not worry as the unit is quite a tight fit and will stay in place with out it

If you can get a scanner that is a JOBD (japanese protocol) you can see if there are any codes that wil give an indication of what is wrong, usually it will be one of the sensors or a dirty sensor ring or even a corroded connector on the wiring loom under neath

As Rojie has stated above, although the 3.0L has a cam belt the engine is a non interference so if the belt should go west there will be no damage to valves/piston heads. Fuel consumption depends on your driving style and there is very little difference between the 2.4 or 3.0 but as a family car doing short runs the 2.4L would better suited

Yes it is suitable, cost will be about £1200, plus extra if you get them to fit new plugs and a Flashlube system, you need to google for installers near to you, btw Stag is the best system to go for

I have a Garmin DC56 fitted behind the rear view mirror and a Garmin DC 46 on the back window, they are powered off a piggy back fuse plugged into the front fog fuse No.3 and are switched on/off, for parking, via a small round switch fitted in the dome light at the front. they can be voice activated to record video or take a picture, there is also an app for use with your phone. nearly all dashcams come with a screen so that the angle of view can be set other wise it could be too high or too low to see the incident, hth

That is to let you know that you are in reverse gear it has nothing to do with the parking sensors

I had Yokohama BluEarth 4S 215/65/17 99V fitted to mine

Apart from some minor changes like the Grille, the V on the tailgate denotes supplied by an Independant dealership and the G is a Toyota owned dealership, but there are also MZ "G editions" but that is shown on the chassis number

Would that be for the Series 10

Hi, seems alot of people go for an Xtrons unit . I will be getting my MNH as soon as dvla do their stuff so atm I am looking at various options to replace the factory unit and keep the cameras etc

Hi all, new to this forum and the Alphard. I'm waiting for DVLA to pull their fingers out then I can start enjoying my MNH15. Will more than likely be asking loads of questions on the ins and outs of working on one, 1st Q; any links to a workshop manual have already ordered an owners manual

I have experience of LPG on a Ford Explorer and my current vehicle a Subaru Forester. If it has been set up correctly the only thing that needs doing is changing the filters.. You might notice a small reduction in the miles per litre but other than that it will go just as well as when on petrol. I'm waiting for mine to be registered atm.

Hi, new member here. I'm considering getting an Alphard and converting it to a camper so I can get off the beaten track now and again so I'm looking for some answers. 1) Is there any one here that has or had a 4wd version, 2) How capable was it on muddy tracks or wet fields 3) Was it the 2.4L or 3.0L 4) Is it switchable
