DB7 Radiators And Repairs

Here are Jonns notes on his recent work on our 2002 Aston Martin DB7 Vantage.

Continue to fit radiator. Fit intake pipes and arch liners, pipe up and secure. Refill cooling system with vacuum fill . Charge battery. Refit and torque wheels.

Refit bonnet. Run up and select all gears. Requires top up with correct oil. Order oil for auto box.

Run up on ramp and select each gear in turn for approx 5 seconds. Warm up to 35 degrees and put in park with engine idling. Raise in air and check gearbox level. Top up accordingly until fluid comes out. Refit bung and clean area. Carry out road test, all seems ok.

Load and take to storage, put on chargers and cover.
