Hi Jim. I'm sorry to say but I don't like non original equipment. I know the Halfords one is cheaper but i'd much prefer you had a genuine Toyota one on your engine. Yes it is costing you money but if it cures the problem obviously is a better deal. Personally i'd replace that Halfords one for a genuine Toyota one. Incidentally the Halfords one, you do know belonging to the Toyota Owners Club you can get a card which will give you about 25% discount, I have one, they are free and last for life. To get a card just join the Premium member discount part of this club, there's a tab on the first page of this site. https://www.toyotaownersclub.com/?_fromLogin=1 it's the green tab. The rubber part of the filter is a pump for priming the system, try pumping it until it goes hard to see if the engine starts straight away , worth a try. I know someone who seized up his Toyota Celica just because he had a Halfords filter one on there and the parts person assured him it was the correct one, it fitted but lacked a non return valve which technically wrote his car off. Regards, Mike.

Hi Paul Open up the link below, it says certain companies can supply old style UK plates. https://www.bing.com/search?q='old++style'+number+plates+uk&form=EDNTHT&mkt=en-gb&httpsmsn=1&refig=bce3cf791e78492aaaebb8603fc2bb8f&sp=-1&pq='old+style'+number+plates+uk&sc=0-28&qs=n&sk=&cvid=bce3cf791e78492aaaebb8603fc2bb8f Mike.

Thanks and Hi Alphard Hybrid The full-size Alphard Hybrid MPV qualifies as an Ultra-Low Emissions Vehicle (ULEV), achieving emission levels 75% lower than the Japanese government's year 2000 benchmark. The 2.4-litre gasoline engine has been developed specifically for use in Toyota'shybrid systems and features a high-expansion ratio cycle that raises efficiency and reduces friction. The Alphard Hybrid uses "by-wire" technology that monitors brake pedal pressure and vehicle speed in order to calculate the optimum hydraulic pressure. By-wire works with the E-Four to maximize the collection of kinetic energy from braking for conversion into electric power. The Alphard Hybrid can generate up to 1,500 watts and is equipped with standard 100-volt AC power outlets, allowing a wide range of appliances to be used, such as laptops and emergency lights. The electrical outlets can also be used to recharge items such as power-assisted bicycles and electric carts, adding a new dimension to leisure activities. Fuel efficiency The Alphard Hybrid achieves approximately 42 mpg and boasts an insulated body and newly developed two-way compressor that is incorporated in the motor to optimize the use of the air conditioner, conserving fuel. The Alphard Hybrid's specially developed windshield glass also reduces the amount of solar radiation penetration. In addition, the roof and roof panels contain an insulating material to reduce cabin temperature, which helps conserve energy when the air conditioner is operating 42 mpg if I get 35 I will be over the moon
