silver997 is infamous around these parts

Does Aston Martin give you a 1 year warranty on parts bought through their dealer network?

Also--dont let a schmuck ruin the wonderful ownership of a AM. You have enjoyed yours immensely but see below to what you would be missing. The new one drives wonderfully and if you like the looks its stellar. AM Bits, VelocityAP, and RedPants can get you always taken care of for any new part you would want, shipped to your door. No need for the dealer's involvement. Cut them out.

V8V and DB9 are different filters..

If your interested..We're actually looking for a '19 Vantage 4.0L for developing product. (Mainly Tune and exhaust right now..have springs on the way)

I know you have a year on parts if bought and installed by dealer, not sure about if owner or indie installs parts though...would get tricky for stuff like electrical if not installed by dealer tech.

Hey buddy, Mine is one of the very rare 05' DB9 6-speed manuals that Gaydon said they have no accurate build numbers for that year; which the manual was NOT offered till 06' year model. Mine is a March build in 05 too. Gaydon advised they can only say less than 24 manuals were produced and most likely less than 12 or so exist today.

I'm a huge fan of the manual shift DB9's, mainly because a non-fully loaded DB9 manual shift is faster than a DBS in a straight line. Slap on some coilovers and you have a DBS annihilator!

I just bought an oil filter from my local dealer and the parts guy says 1 year warranty on an oil filter even if I install it myself. My local dealer is awesome though! OP has a reason to be upset.
