Summary
Bonnet vent water shield installation V2: Parts – single kit now issued
Reason for this Service Action
There can be a problem when DB11 V12 is parked in rain. Water can go into the bonnet vents and collect on the coil pack seal. The water can then go into the breather pipe for the spark plug cavity as the engine temperature decreases. When water touches the HT leads it can cause a misfire.
Water shields are now available that will keep water away from the ignition system.
