Additional Notes

  • The Aston Martin DB9 automatic transmission fluid capacity is 9.7 liters across all listed configurations, spanning the 2003-2016 model range and including the DB9 GT variant from 2015-2016. A 9.7-liter figure is consistent with a full transmission system fill, accounting for fluid held within the torque converter, valve body, and cooler lines rather than just the pan.
  • The check interval is specified at 16,000 km or 12 months, whichever comes first, and applies under normal use conditions across every listed configuration. A 16,000 km interval is relatively short by modern automatic transmission standards, reflecting a scheduled inspection rather than a full fluid exchange at each service point.
  • The normal use condition designation, as applied here, refers to typical on-road driving without the additional thermal and mechanical stress associated with severe use classifications such as towing, track driving, or extreme temperature operation. All seven listed configurations carry this same normal use designation.
  • The capacity and interval specifications remain unchanged across the full span of DB9 variants listed, from the 2003-2008 configuration through to the 2014-2016 configuration. This consistency across multiple production periods indicates the same transmission unit was retained throughout without specification revision.
  • The DB9 GT, listed for 2015-2016, shares an identical 9.7-liter capacity and 16,000 km/12-month check interval with the standard DB9 configurations, indicating no transmission specification differentiation between the GT variant and the preceding standard model.
