Everyone loves a reliable car, and your Toyota Hiace fits the bill, getting you from whoa to go with every turn of the key. But even the most reliable rides occasionally need some TLC to keep them going strong.

If turning the key gets you that “tck tck tck tck” noise and nothing else, the culprit could be your alternator. Toyota Hiaces are reliable, but not infallible! The good news is, mycar are experts and can sort you out with an affordable replacement fast. Let’s take a look at what you need to know if you think your Hiace’s alternator is on the blink.

frequent stalling
a failing battery
trouble starting your car,
a whining or screeching noise after you start your Hiace
