Well Intake question
I was going to purchase my intake but then the dealership said it would void my warranty if anything bad were to happen...Should i still get one and possibly swap back my intake if anything were to goo wrong in the future or any advice on what to do?
it voids the warranty if and only if an engine failure is caused as a result of having an aftermarket intake. If, say, you have a cold air intake and SOME HOW you manage to suck up enough water to flood your engine (not really likely at all) then thats a direct result of your intake and that is what voids your warranty. simply having the intake on doesn't void it, and if your engine were to fail for something completely unrelated to the intake then your warranty should still be honored.
Get TRD parts and they won't hassle you. I went in for warranty repairs twice and I got no BS what so ever (and I installed them myself). If you go in with aftermarket performance parts you're almost guaranteed a getting the run around from a dealer.
Print this: http://www.me-mag.com/Upload/magmoss.pdf and walk in to the dealer with it and ask them to say that the intake will void your warranty.
