Service Schedules Summary
Your DB AR1 should be serviced every 12,000 km (7,500 miles) or 6 months,
whichever occurs first. The service schedules cover:
Pre-delivery Inspection (PDI)
This free series of checks is carried out on the car by the Selling Dealer before
delivery. The checks ensure that you receive a vehicle which matches the high
quality standards set by Aston Martin Lagonda Limited.
Initial 1,500km (1,000 mile) Service
The Selling Dealer is responsible for the costs and work involved in performing this
free service. The initial service consists of an inspection and oil change service after
completion of the first 1,500 km (1,000 miles) and includes fine adjustments to
compensate for initial 'bedding-in' e.g. handbrake adjustment. Also, engine oil and
filter will be changed to clear any contaminants picked up during the initial running.
12,000 km (7,500 mile) Service
This is the basic service interval for DB AR1 when consumable oils, filters, etc will be
changed and functional checks will be carried out on all major systems in the vehicle.
24,000 km (15,000 mile) Service
In addition to the 12,000 km (7,500 mile) service items, air filters, wiper blades etc.
are renewed at 24,000 km (15,000 mile) intervals.
48,000 & 96,000 km (30,000 & 60,000 mile) Services
Again the basic 12,000 km (7,500 mile) service is carried out together with the
additional checks and replacement items shown in the following schedules.
2 Years
To maintain the hydraulic brake system performance, the brake fluid is renewed
every 2 years to clear the system of absorbed water vapour.
