Additional Notes

  • The Aston Martin DB5 4.0 carries a coolant system capacity of 16 liters, which reflects a full cooling system fill volume rather than a partial service top-up quantity.
  • The 16-liter figure applies across the 1963-1965 production span of the DB5 4.0, with no variation recorded between model years within that range.
  • A capacity listed under a "cooling system" note typically represents the total volume of the entire circuit, including the radiator, engine block passages, heater core, and connecting hoses, rather than the radiator alone.
  • The specification is designated for normal use conditions, meaning the 16-liter capacity figure is associated with standard operating environments rather than severe or high-demand service scenarios.
