    Absolutely gutted right now. My 2012 V8 Vantage has been my pride and joy for the last three years, never skipped a beat until this week. Suddenly there’s this rough idle and a noticeable stumble when I accelerate from a stop. No check engine light yet but I can feel something is off. I’ve called a few places in Sharjah and most of them either said they don’t work on Aston Martins or gave me vague answers that didn’t inspire confidence. A fellow owner from the Saturday morning cars and coffee meet told me about a Professional Aston Martin Repair Sharjah that supposedly has the right diagnostic gear for the older Jaguar derived engines. I haven’t booked it yet because I’m terrified of someone inexperienced poking around and making things worse. Has anyone here had a similar misfire issue on their Vantage or DB9? I’d really appreciate knowing what the cause ended up being and whether a specialist was able to sort it without charging a fortune.
