Aston Martin Vantage Service at JCT600 Leeds | Diff Leak Found & Factory Upgrade
In this video, I take my 2019 Aston Martin Vantage to JCT600 Aston Martin Leeds for its 7th annual main dealer service, giving you a close-up look at what really happens during an Aston Martin service visit. What starts as a routine service soon reveals a coolant leak from the rear diff cooling system, offering useful insight into the sort of maintenance issues Aston Martin Vantage owners may face as these cars get older, along with the likely repair costs involved.
You’ll also see the FTP Vantage up on the ramp, a detailed walk-through from the workshop, and honest discussion around Aston Martin servicing, ownership, reliability and running costs.
Beyond the service bay, I also take a look around the JCT600 Leeds showroom, featuring some very special Aston Martins including the Vanquish Volante 60th Anniversary, Vantage S models, and the remarkable Aston Martin FIA Formula 1 Safety Car.
There is also a factory upgrade fitted to my car during the visit, which adds another interesting twist to the day. Whether you already own an Aston Martin Vantage, are thinking of buying one, or simply enjoy behind-the-scenes dealership and workshop content, this video offers a genuine real-world look at Aston Martin ownership.
