Reason for Version 3 of this Service Bulletin
The Service Bulletin has been updated with the latest part numbers and replacement requirements. Changes to the
document have a black line against them in the left margin. Please discard all copies of SB-06-1117V2 and replace them
with SB-06-1117V3.
Reason for this Service Bulletin
Aston Martin has found that some vehicles with steel brake discs can have brake squeal. This is a known property of high
performance brakes and can occur at low speed and in low temperatures. Please refer to the vehicle Owners Guide,
Chapter 5.
Brake noise analysis
Do a road test of the vehicle. If necessary, have the customer in the vehicle with you.
If the vehicle makes the brake noise again, get another person to record a sound file. This can be done with a PicoScope
NVH kit.
Note:
You must observe all local road traffic regulations when you road test the vehicle.
A PicoScope NVH kit can be used to help technicians identify brake noise. If the noise is from the front brakes, the
frequency will be between 10.8 and 10.9 kHz. If the noise is from the rear brakes, the frequency will be between 12.5
and 12.7 kHz.
A PicoScope NVH kit can also be used to measure acceleration and deceleration during the brake bed-in procedure.

Do a visual inspection of the brake discs, pads and wheel
mounting face for signs of external contamination. If there
are signs of external contamination because the incorrect
wheel cleaner was used, this damage will not be covered
by the vehicle warranty. The brake pads must be replaced.
Figure 1 gives an example of contamination on the wheel
mounting face and caliper.

Customer Education
Aston Martin recommends that After-sales personnel speak with the customer about what products they use when their
vehicle is cleaned. Acidic cleaners can cause contamination of the brake pads which can cause brake noise symptoms.
If the vehicle is frequently driven in city traffic, it is necessary to put heat into the brakes at regular intervals. This can be
done with gradually heavier application of the brakes at higher speeds where possible with traffic conditions and when
safe to do so. This will help to build up a transfer layer of friction material on the brake discs which can reduce brake
noise.
If the customer still has complaints related to brake noise, please start a SpotLight case. This must include:
•
Pictures of the brake discs, pads, pad level information (refer to Figure 2), hubs and calipers
•
A video file, with audio, before steps 1-6 are done.
•
A video file, with audio, after step 6 is completed.
If you have any questions related to this Service Bulletin, please contact: Aston Martin Technical Services
