2009 Aston Martin Vantage V8 4.7 Oil & Filter Change

I assume this will apply to all generation II V8 Vantages.

Step 1 Remove the two under belly pans. (pictured) You have 17 13mm bolts 8 T27 ones and two phillips screws.

Step 2 Remove the three drain plugs. I will post a picture indicating the locations of the plugs. One is on the bottom of the oil reservior the other two on the bottom of the engine.

Is this why even the most basic service is so expensive? 27 screws & 2 undertrays off for an oil change! I'm sure you get fast enough at it after a few but why design it that way!?

Has to be better though than some of the plastic offerings you see hanging from 'lesser' cars.

Redpants has kit $36 with rubbers and assorted parts that should be replaced every other oil change. Make sure you use Castrol Edge European Version oil. He also has OE Filter for $47
