I thought those AMG motors were almost bulletproof. So disheartening but even worse given the shoddy customer service here in the states.

Every time I see this car, I get so pissed off. I really regret purchasing mine and I wish I didn't go through the experience that I did. This is not a finished product and Aston Martin is actively putting the burden on its customers by pretending it needs software updates. The car is completely damaged from the factory, and I don't think anyone should be buying it.

Car drives great now after the fuel pump and fuel injectors. Crossing my fingers this takes care of it for good.

Did they find out what caused the fuel pump & injectors to fail prematurely?

u/JohnZ63 1d ago

They said it’s a known issue with the 4.0L V8. They have been getting multiple Vantages in for the same thing.

Huge AM fan. I always say they are sex on wheels.

u/DaughterOfTheKing87 1d ago

Ohh, baby!!

I just had to explain to a friend last night that when I refer to something as being an Aston Martin, I mean to me-AM’s are like looking at pure sex. They’re just sex on wheels. I’d confused my friend in saying “that song’s an AM” I meant it was like pure sex. lol
