I've just bought an 09' manual DBS and have a few questions;
The clutch bite point is high, about 2/3rds up on the travel, is this normal? I previously have a V12V and don't remember it being so high
Also the first inch or so of the throttle pedal travel does virtually nothing making heal toeing tricky, again is this normal? The V12V was a doddle to heal and toe so I wondered if the later pedals are better? I have four replaced on the V12V but each was much crisper than the DBS
Finally I've had an intermittent tyre pressure monitoring fault, is the common?
Despite these niggles I love it and prefer to the V12V because of its GT nature

Hi,
I have got a similar tyre pressure system warning, which I have just spoken to Aston Brentwood about. Apparently there are some colour-coded indicator warning lights in the passenger footwell which should tell you where the fault is. My DBS is under an Aston warranty so I assume they will change the faulty valve/part; all the tyre pressures are as they should be.
Loving the car too, which I am finally getting to drive after working away for the last few months.
Enjoy your car!
