When Your Aston Martin Needs Attention

Aston Martin vehicles are known for their exceptional performance and luxury. However, even these masterpieces require regular maintenance and occasional repairs. Here are some signs that your Aston Martin might need professional attention:

• Unusual engine noises
• Illuminated warning lights on the dashboard
• Poor braking performance
• Decreased fuel efficiency
• Vibrations while driving
• Difficulty starting the engine

Maintaining an Aston Martin requires diligent care to preserve its performance, luxury, and value. Below is a comprehensive guide based on current recommendations and insights from various sources:

Scheduled Maintenance

Aston Martin’s maintenance schedule is typically based on 10,000-mile or 12-month intervals, whichever comes first. Key tasks include:

• 10,000 miles / 12 months
• 131-point factory inspection
• Synthetic engine oil and oil filter replacement
• Tire rotation
• 20,000 miles / 24 months
• Repeat 10,000-mile services
• Brake and clutch fluid replacement
• Cabin air filter replacement
• 30,000 miles / 36 months
• Continue with prior services
• Additional checks for V8 and V12 engines, such as air filter replacement (every 30,000 miles for V8, 20,000 miles for V12)



For older models like the V8 Vantage, consider replacing the PCV valve around 40,000 miles and the thermostat between 5–7 years, as these are known to degrade. Coolant should be flushed every 5 years, and brake fluid replaced every 1–2 years to maintain braking performance.

Tire and Brake Maintenance

• Check tire pressure regularly to maintain handling and fuel efficiency.
• Rotate tires every 10,000 miles and schedule wheel alignments to ensure even wear.
• Brake pads typically last up to 50,000 miles but may wear faster with aggressive driving or track use. Listen for squeaking wear indicators and inspect rotors for resurfacing or replacement.

Battery and Engine Care

• Battery: Check terminals for corrosion and use a trickle charger for cars not driven daily to prevent premature failure—especially in extreme climates.
• Engine: Regular oil changes (every 10,000 miles or annually) are critical. For models with Mercedes-AMG engines (e.g., DB11, Vantage), monitor for oil leaks around valve covers or oil cooler hoses. Clean carbon buildup from intake valves every 50,000 miles to maintain performance.

Reliability and Common Issues

Modern Aston Martins are more reliable than older models, with fewer reported issues if maintained properly. However, neglecting maintenance (e.g., letting the car sit without a battery tender) can lead to problems.

Common issues include

• V8 Vantage: PCV valve and thermostat degradation
• Mercedes-AMG engines: Oil leaks, turbocharger wear, and sensor failures due to heat
• Older models (e.g., DB7): Rust issues, especially in humid climates

Extended warranties are highly recommended for used Astons to mitigate repair costs.
