definitive part no's for Vanquish ser 2 +V12Vcoils spark Plu

[Astontony]

Hi All,
I am just seeking advice re part numbers and alternatives for doing my MY 15 Vanquish plugs and coil packs. Also my friend wants to do his 17 V12Vantage which I guess are exactly the same. Can anyone provide the right numbers for me and also an economic solution for both ie do we have to buy plugs via AML or is there a better solution.
Any advice or assistance would be greatly appreciated. We will most likely buy 2 sets of each in preparation. I have had a look through alternative parts menu but don' want to make any mistakes.

Now I know you would just reuse the Vantage V12 coil securing screws but £12.95 each for a M5 x 25 long screw .............................. pants down or what? At least Dick Turpin wore a mask !!

And I didnt realise the spark plugs were different between engines?

Interesting, I thought the parts would be the same also. Thanks for the info.I will investigate and respond.

Why are you doing your coil packs?
A lot of testing has been done lately on old changed out coil packs from DB7 and V12 Vanquish.
A minuscule percentage had actually failed. In almost all cases it has turned out that it was the spark plugs.

No point in just changing the plugs as labour to remove them is probably 2K so may as well do the coil packs at the same time. It would piss me off if I just did the plugs and then a month later a coil pack decided to stuff up. Surely they must wear out sooner or later and mine has now done 54000kl.

I did my DBS recently and did the PCV’s at the same time. On a V12 you’ll need inlet manifold gaskets as well

I would recommended you buy genuine parts, why compromise on cars of this value?
