Did anyone here did the 10k/one year service and can shed some light on what is needed/required by Aston?

Have 2 local dealers with two different answers…..

Thanks,

what are they saying? out of the book or manual? lots of checking levels, and an oil change.

 

They are actually saying that different things needed to get done

 

Aston Martin recommends a oil and brake fluid change every year. I forgot what the mileage recommendation was as I never meet that. I only put about 3k miles a year on mine.

 

This was 1s dealer-

Annual Service $755.00 (Oil & filter change, brake, tire, multi point vehicle inspections & comprehensive road tests).
Tire Balancing $100.00
Fluid Flush $345.00 (recommended Bi-annually)
Cabin Pollen filters $345.00

2nd dealer-

Engine lube oil & filter change, top off fluids, set tire psi to spec,
Perform fuel injection cleaning, replace remote batteries, perform visual & safety inspection and battery test.
The cost of the Service is $1130.00+Tax

 

I need to open up my own AM repair shop. The annual I do myself and its less than $100 in parts.

Your owners manual will have what is required every year. Most of that stuff you can do yourself. I would probably go with the first dealer as you seem to get more for your money. They include the brake fluid flush as required in their annual service for $755.
What fluid are they changing that requires a bi-annual change (it wasn't mentioned)? Per my owners manual brake and oil are done every year and coolant every 5 years. AM has the trans and diff fluid as filled for life but I would recommend changing it every 10 years or 30k miles which ever is first.

 

He said the brake fluids needed to get done Bi annually.

 

My 2005 owners manual says to change the brake fluid annually. However, I do agree this is excessive for a street car. You are fine changing the brake fluid every 2 years IMO.
