All UK Aston Martins have a tracker fitted as standard. I think being a 2010, it will be a Cobra one that is now handled by Vodafone. Do you have any driver cards? Will have to go to a dealer to get it activated.

Hi joinery80

As your car is a 2010 model I suspect it’s more likely that the original tracker (assuming it hasn’t been replaced) is the old AM Eurowatch system. As you have no plastic driver tag cards (you can’t miss them, they are pretty chunky!), it used to allow Bluetooth pairing with a mobile phone to allow the handset to act as the authentication. However this could only be set up by speaking to a Eurowatch operator over the phone and in the old days they only worked weekday office hours.

You could try getting in touch here. This was their old website but I’m not sure if it still supports AM. Could be worth an initial call as a starting point.

If it turns out to be the later Cobra type you could try here.

As YT said, if that all fails, a call to the supplying dealer is advisable I guess.

I have. 2007 V8 Vantage that I purchased late last year. Phoned Eurowatch who confirmed tracker had never been activated but they were able to check that they could wake it up which they did and no problem. They can pair to your phone if you wish. My tracker tags had died but got new ones under warranty, worthwhile if you leave car for service etc.
Call 01234 759312, they will tell you if you have one of their trackers if you give them your chassis number.
Hope that helps.
