Additional Notes
- The Aston Martin DB9 manual transmission holds a capacity of 5 liters across all model years from 2003 to 2012, indicating a consistent gearbox design throughout the production span covered by these specifications.
- A 5-liter fill is characteristic of a full service or overhaul quantity, representing the total fluid volume the transmission housing accepts rather than a partial top-up amount.
- All configurations carry a fluid change interval of 64000 km or 48 months under normal use conditions, placing the replacement cycle on a relatively extended schedule by manual transmission standards.
- The check interval for the 2003-2008 model years is set at 32000 km or 36 months under normal use, meaning fluid level inspections were scheduled less frequently on a time basis than on later configurations.
- Beginning with the 2008-2009 configuration, the time-based check interval was reduced from 36 months to 24 months, while the distance-based check interval of 32000 km remained unchanged.
- The 24-month check interval introduced in the 2008-2009 specification carries forward without alteration through the 2009-2010 and 2010-2012 configurations, alongside the same 32000 km distance trigger.
- The fluid change interval of 64000 km or 48 months applies uniformly across all four configurations, meaning the tightening of the check schedule after 2008 did not affect how often a full fluid replacement was required.
