for a rapide. as i just changed the battery and went for a misfire procedure. i found that but "misfire has been monitored since power on" No. not even sure this means it didnt catch it, anybody knows how to proceed for a rapide. i didnt tried via the obd2. maybe i shall do that....
It is stored already and battery disconnect will not clear them on your car. So no need to try and learn them.
oh really and same for the tcm gearbox? no procedure?
what misleaded me too is the dealer often talked about it, doing the misfire procedure after we changed the battery in 2020 ( days before he was telling me its not a forum here, and then he said he will go driving it now for a misfire procedure, incredible, the service manager that was there at that time) anyway, maybe he didnt knew then, at that time they were aston martin and had the amds, its strange.
its all after my10,5 cars, that they don't need it, correct?
i said so about Giovanni Puliga, because 2 or 3 years after the warraty had expired, the warranty assisted me with the valencia aml dealer you know, they assisted me and watch them out too. i am saying so the new owners with so beautiful db11 or db12 etc know the luck they have and the warranty and service from Aston. if something happen on these new cars. if i didnt invested money on a denim project i could have trade my car for a db11 easily, i regret it a bit today. originally with the exchange rate and service i did and paper work i spent 124k dollars on my car in 2016. i said i never had problems with my car, but a rodent damage happenned, and day before i connected this kit to open the valves and contacted the warranty Giovanni was a bit mad at me for conecting this kit, despite that they assisted me and assisted am valencia. this kit i never left even one day on the car but tried it twice to realise it didnt fit my car at all, and the noise i got from my engine is fabulous originally of being from the test center in nurburgring (convinced its lightly different than normal as the kit didnt fit at all) , and super loud when i want it. that's why here you will find me very so so..., i prefer not to touch the air box too in case i am geting trapped into an heavy rain. but it be nice to have an image of the set up without air box for in case. also for my situation not having dealership around to rely on, nobody 0, unless i tow it at 800 kms in Bordeaux and even this i could not find a towing company willing to do it yet if something happen to me. hopefully the harness repair is not corroded today and its not what i am geting when starting, thats why i wnat drive it, and i noticed all the time when i just pull the car and re enter it its hurting me now doing so, i could keep my battery super well 5 years and not using my car much, and its still good the battery, but too little kms lately....i dont care talking about the damage, i will inform the buyer if i sell the car.
this gearbox is so smooth i don't even feel the gear going through, it drives like new.
so its interesting to see the ex manager telling me they had a special spot to do the misfire, that he was doing it personally the best he could etc, he reaussred me when he said so, i shoudl take this into consideration, even if it was not needed, lol. anyway, who knows, i tried 7 times, maybe i got it well done once? due to the temp setting i didnt wait for eneough curbs and light traffic. but i attempted twice its good to know i don't need to do it so i can spend my time trying something else.
its been 4 years and only 4500 kms without additives / fuel injector cleaner.so i will go away and do it slowly but maybe more regurlarly like you said.
