Hi everyone, just got myself a toyota hybrid van: Alphard. It has on-screen display that shows in Japanese only. NEED HELP! Need English manual for the Japanese display.
Appreciate if anyone can help.
Thank you.

I think there is a way for Toyota to change the computer display into English. You might want to give them a call and ask.

Could the dealership also help you with something like that? If there is no luck there, then I thik calling the factory as Accer suggested would be a great bet. Especially since you have a new vehicle, someone should be helping you!

The Alphard hybrid was bought from a grey market importer and not through a local toyota distributor. The reason is this van is not being imported and sold by Toyota Thailand since the Alphard is intended for Japanese market only.

I called toyota thailand and they couldn't help either. They said the car was not designed to be sold outside Japan, so no English manual for on screen display.

Hi Everyone, I m new here and planning to buy myself one Alphard. Is there any other ways other than stated above to get an english version owner's manual or Chinese version also will do. As I know that many Alphard being sold in Hong Kong market. This car not only being targeted for Japan Market but also Hong Kong. Please Help

why don't you call japan toyota and ask help from them to change the chip

hi,
I just bought alphard 3.0 MZG spec. So many questions I want to discuss with Toyota Japan. You have any idea how to get the answer of my questions? How to contact them?

I really want to know anybody who owned this luxury van earlier and share the information with me. Are malaysian have Toyota Alphard Fan Club like Caldina Club or Wish Club?? If it is, please let me know. I want to join. If not, why don't Alphard Owners form one? I though it will be nice because Alphard is affordable now. So many new owners will come up.
