Many thanks to the excellent professionals at Aston Martin Works Service.

They actually seem to have been able to fix my DB9!!!!!

After three unfruitful visits to dealers the guys at the factory seem to have done the job at last. Took a while, but worth the wait just for the amazing valet!

My car will never go to a dealer again.

Since owning the car whenever I redline it, the computer insisted that it needed an urgent emmission service, and I should drive 'slowly'.

First trip to a dealer the diagnosis was that it just needed a reboot and that solved the problem, until it was redlined again. Back to the dealer and further checks revealed a misfire on two cylinders ("but it's not serious, we'll do it when it's next serviced&quotwink.

That solved the problem for a couple of months, but again it came back. Tired of trips back to dealers I called Aston Martin directly and they were superb. Picked the car up in a closed transporter, courtesy car, etc. Fixed everything (at least it seems to be fixed not matter how hard it's driven) under warranty and delivered it back cleaner than it's ever been.
