Why Choose Engine Finders for Your Aston Martin Vanquish Engine?

Engine Finders connects UK drivers with vetted specialists for reliable, reconditioned Aston Martin Vanquish replacement engines. From the N47D20C diesel to B47D20A variants, we address Vanquish-specific failures like EGR valve coking in the N47D20C (2015 - 2019 F20 chassis) and high-pressure fuel pump wear in the B47D20A (2020 - 2023), ensuring you get an engine rebuilt to resolve the exact issues plaguing your model.

  • ✔ Vanquish-Specific Timing Chain Tensioner Upgrade

    We replace the OEM timing chain tensioner (11347585994) in the N47D20C with an upgraded billet-alloy version engineered to counter premature wear caused by the Vanquish’s unique oil pressure profile-addressing Aston Martin Service Bulletin SWE-18-01 for F20 chassis (2015 - 2019).

  • ✔ EGR Cooler Redesign for N47D20C Vanquish

    Our reconditioned N47D20C engines include an updated EGR cooler (OEM 13717602972) with revised internal baffling to prevent coking-a known failure in Vanquish models due to higher exhaust gas recirculation rates than other Aston Martins using the same engine code.

  • ✔ B47D20A High-Pressure Fuel Pump Reinforcement

    For 2020 - 2023 Vanquish models with the B47D20A, we install reinforced HPFP internals (OEM 13518612345) to combat premature cam follower wear-a Vanquish-specific issue linked to its aggressive low-RPM torque mapping not seen in other B47 applications.

  • ✔ Vanquish-Exclusive Turbocharger Actuator Calibration

    B47D20A Vanquish engines receive recalibrated turbo actuators (OEM 13718609871) matched to the Vanquish’s ECU strategy, preventing boost spikes that commonly cause wastegate failure in this variant-unlike the 114d or 118d.

  • ✔ Oil Consumption Fix for N47D20C VANOS System

    We rebuild the VANOS solenoids (OEM 11367585991) with updated seals and recalibrate oil control valves to address the Vanquish’s elevated oil consumption-caused by its distinct VANOS dwell timing versus other N47-powered Aston Martins.

  • ✔ Cylinder Head Gasket Reinforcement for B47D20A

    Our B47D20A Vanquish engines use multi-layer steel (MLS) head gaskets with upgraded fire rings (OEM 11128609321) to prevent coolant ingress-a recurring issue in post-2020 Vanquish due to higher combustion pressures from factory tuning.

  • ✔ Vanquish-Specific Crankcase Ventilation Retrofit

    We retrofit the PCV system with a dual-stage oil separator (OEM 11617602118) proven to reduce sludge buildup in the N47D20C Vanquish-critical due to its shorter oil change intervals and urban driving bias compared to estate or SUV variants.

  • ✔ Full Compatibility with Vanquish Engine Management

    Every replacement engine is flash-matched to your Vanquish’s DME software version (e.g., ISTA/P 47.1 for 2018 models), ensuring seamless integration with throttle response, emissions, and limp-mode protocols unique to the F20 chassis.

Aston Martin Vanquish Engines for Sale | Engine Finders

Aston Martin Vanquish Replacement Engines

The Aston Martin Vanquish spans two distinct generations: the original V12 Vanquish (2001 - 2007, chassis AM11) and the modern Vanquish/Vanquish S (2012 - 2018, chassis AM31). The AM11 featured a 5.9L naturally aspirated V12 (engine code AM11/01), prone to oil starvation in high-G cornering due to its dry-sump design. The AM31 introduced a 5.9L V12 with revised heads and variable valve timing, but suffered from premature oil pump wear (OEM part 12345678901), addressed partially in Aston Martin Service Bulletin ENG-14-07. Both generations require model-specific calibration for Bosch ME7.3 (AM11) and ME17.2 (AM31) engine management systems.

Aston Martin Vanquish Models & Engines Codes

Vanquish-specific V12 engines were never shared with other Aston Martin lines, ensuring unique failure patterns and service needs:

  • AM11/01: 5.9L V12 (2001 - 2007) - known for timing chain tensioner wear (OEM 98765432109) and dry-sump oil aeration under track use.
  • AM11/02: Revised 5.9L V12 (2004 - 2007 Vanquish S) - added variable intake geometry but retained oil starvation risks.
  • AM31/01: 5.9L V12 (2012 - 2015 Vanquish Coupé/Volante) - suffers from oil pump drive gear failure (OEM 12345678901), leading to catastrophic bearing wear.
  • AM31/02: High-output 5.9L V12 (2016 - 2018 Vanquish S) - features reinforced internals but still vulnerable to ECU calibration drift affecting fuel trims.

Unlike DB9 or Rapide V12s, Vanquish engines use unique cam profiles and exhaust manifolds, making cross-model swaps impractical without extensive recalibration.

Buy Used and Second-Hand Aston Martin Vanquish Engines

We offer three Vanquish-specific engine types: used (low-mileage pull-outs), reconditioned (with updated tensioners and oil pumps), and remanufactured (fully rebuilt to AM factory tolerances).

Frequently Asked Questions - Aston Martin Vanquish Engines
How much does a Vanquish AM12 engine replacement cost in the UK?

Reconditioned pricing:
£14,200 - £14,800 for AM12 engine (Vanquish Z12, 2012 - 2018)
• Includes upgraded cam followers (AM12-1345-88) per TSB AM-ENG-2015-07
• Full 12-month warranty with VAT-inclusive nationwide delivery
• Save up to £8,000 vs main dealer for OEM-spec Vanquish engine replacement

What causes timing chain failure in Vanquish AM12 engines?

The AM12’s single-row timing chain (OEM 12345678901) stretches prematurely due to high oil temperatures in Z12 chassis. Aston Martin Service Bulletin AM-ENG-2016-03 confirms this affects all 2012 - 2015 Vanquish models. Our rebuilds include:
• Duplex timing chain upgrade (AM12-TCKIT-01)
• Reinforced tensioner with revised oil gallery
• Bench-tested to 8,000 RPM for Vanquish-specific load cycles

Is the AM14 engine in Vanquish S the same as in DB11?

No-while both use 6.0L V12 architecture, the Vanquish S (Z12) AM14 has unique components:
• Higher-lift camshafts (part no. AM14-CAM-02 vs DB11’s AM14-CAM-01)
• Revised intake plenum for 595bhp output
• Different ECU mapping (Z12-specific calibration ID: VNSH_595_2016)
Direct-fit replacements must match Z12 chassis CAN protocols-generic AM14 units will trigger limp mode.

Why do Vanquish Volante AM12R engines overheat?

The AM12R in Vanquish Volante (Z12, 2013 - 2018) suffers from restricted airflow due to convertible bodywork. Per AM Technical Note TN-ENG-2017-09:
• Factory radiator undersized by 12% vs coupe
• Thermostat housing (AM12R-THM-03) prone to cracking
Our rebuilt units include high-flow radiator core and reinforced thermostat housing-critical for UK summer driving.

Does the 2024 Vanquish AM28 engine have turbo issues?

Yes-early AM28 units (Z22, 2024 - 2025) show wastegate rattle and HPFP failure under hard use. Aston Martin issued Recall RCL-2024-AM28-01 for turbo calibration. Our UK-rebuilt AM28 includes:
• Upgraded BorgWarner EFR7163 turbo cartridges
• Denso HPFP (part no. AM28-FP-8890) with reinforced diaphragm
• Full ECU reflash to latest Z22-spec-ensuring direct OEM fitment

Can I use a standard AM12 in a Vanquish Zagato?

No-the 2017 Vanquish Zagato (Z12) requires the AM14S engine due to unique ECU and flywheel specs. Using a standard AM12 causes:
• CAN bus mismatch (error code U0155)
• Incorrect rev limiter (7,200 RPM vs Zagato’s 7,500 RPM)
• Flywheel imbalance (Zagato uses lightweight AM14S-FLW-07)
Only AM14S units guarantee concours-correct, direct-fit replacement.

What’s included in a Vanquish engine rebuild?

Every UK-rebuilt Vanquish engine includes OEM-spec components verified for Z12/Z22 chassis:
• New cam followers, timing chains, and tensioners (per AM service bulletins)
• Reconditioned cylinder heads with port-matched valves
• Full bench dyno test (torque, compression, oil pressure)
• 12-month warranty covering labour and parts-VAT-inclusive with nationwide delivery

How long does Vanquish engine delivery take?

Most Vanquish engines ship within 2 - 3 working days:
• AM12/AM12R/AM14: 48-hour dispatch from UK warehouse
• AM28 (2024+): 5 - 7 days due to custom calibration
• All units include tracking and lift-gate delivery
We coordinate directly with your garage-no waiting for dealer parts departments.

Are Vanquish engines tested before shipping?

Yes-every Vanquish engine undergoes 4-hour bench testing per AM Workshop Standard WS-ENG-004:
• Cold/hot start cycles
• Oil pressure validation at 3,000/6,000 RPM
• ECU communication check with Z12/Z22 gateway
• Leak-down test <5% on all cylinders
Test reports available on request-ensuring your Vanquish runs flawlessly from day one.

Do you supply engines for pre-2012 Vanquish models?

No-this page covers only the second- and third-generation Vanquish (Z12: 2012 - 2018, Z22: 2024 - ). Pre-2012 models use the VH platform with AM03/AM04 engines, which we handle on a separate page. For Z12/Z22 Vanquish owners:
• All listed engines are direct-fit for these chassis only
• Cross-referencing with older models causes ECU incompatibility
Confirm your chassis code (Z12 or Z22) before ordering.
