I have a 2009 DBS with 11K miles on it. While driving on the highway and after nailing the accelerator in sport mode I received an message with a red triangle stating urgent emission failure drive slow. The ac stopped working, I'm assuming it shut down the compressor, Then after 10 seconds it went away and the ac started working again. Anyone ever experience this problem? If so what should I do? The car seems to be back to normal. Appreciate any input.

I'd suggest you just got unlucky burning a lot of fuel briefly.

I had a 2010 DB9 for a few years, which was prone to the odd little disapearing problem.

If you have a large wallet drop it into a service centre, and I'm sure they'll find something to fix wink
Otherwise I'd hold off until the next service.

Thanks for the friendly advice. I'll wait and see if it happens again.
