Aston's Tech info server
 
Thought I'd update my DB9 tech info as the copy I have is from '05

logged in, signed up for a one day subscription and .. nothing.

system just kicks me back to the credit card page.

Am I doing something wrong or is it the system ?

Try a different web browser. It's very finicky.

I used it around 3 weeks ago it it worked fine...

bluecab Dec 3, 2016 04:11 PM

I logged out and then came back an hour later and it worked fine.
Using Safari.
Looks like a few of the documents are web docs, so it does not seem like they could be downloaded and printed.
However, I'm not that literate with web publishing stuff. Happy for suggestions.

Register for a 24-hour (or longer) pass and download all the documents (workshop manuals, technical service bulletins, recalls, etc) for your car, or for whatever. Great info and worth the investment.

They won't let you save a copy of the repairs manual anymore. It's just a a series of web pages. When I complained they said they changed it a while ago and refunded my subscription charge

Great, now how does one get a copy of the shop manuals? Is there a trick or some other option to saving a copy? Any ideas?

Look at website downloading programs for offline browsing, also if you have adobe acrobat(not the reader) you can create a PDF from a website using various levels of depth ... just saying

I downloaded a copy of the workshop manual recently and I'm using Adobe Acrobat to open it and view. Seems to work fine.

Redpants Dec 31, 2016 12:03 PM

It depends on what you're trying to download. The early V8V manual is a PDF, the newer ones are web pages. Some are files for programs.

deckman Dec 31, 2016 03:20 PM

Rich has it right, I remember now. I saw the 2009 and earlier or maybe 2008, the V8V changed. I think the earlier one's are still able to be downloaded. It's a way to forced people to go to dealers I guess?

Manuals for 2013+ models are web based for any different information. Meaning if the bumper is a different R&R from a 2007 V8V vs a 2013 V8V, then the web based guide will have an updated procedure. If the repair is the same procedure then nothing will be posted in the 2013+ web based manual. The PDF WSM is still available on tech info for the earlier models.

Thanks for that info, Irish.
