Additional Notes

  • The Aston Martin DB7 automatic transmission fluid capacity is listed at 12.8 liters across all variants covered in the 1994-2004 range, including the base DB7, DB7 Vantage, DB7 GTA, and DB AR1.
  • A 12.8-liter figure for an automatic transmission is consistent with a total system fill, accounting for fluid held within the torque converter, valve body, and transmission case rather than a simple pan-drain service quantity.
  • All five configurations share an identical check interval of every 12,000 km or 6 months under normal use conditions, whichever comes first.
  • The DB7 (1994-2000) is the only variant in the specifications that carries an explicit fluid change interval, set at 24,000 km or 12 months under normal use conditions.
  • The 24,000 km change interval on the 1994-2000 DB7 is double the 12,000 km check interval, meaning two inspection points were expected to occur between each scheduled fluid replacement.
  • The DB7 Vantage appears across two separate year ranges in the specifications: 1999-2002 and 2002-2004, both sharing the same 12.8-liter capacity and 12,000 km or 6-month check schedule under normal use.
  • All specifications are designated for normal use conditions, meaning the intervals and capacities listed apply to standard operating environments rather than severe or high-stress driving cycles.
