Default DolphinDaddy.... got a question...

Did you say that your dealership installed your aftermarket DV?

If so can you tell me which dealership you went to, so I call and ask, cause every single one I call around me try to scare me saying it will void everything it effects.

Thanks

Default I'm afraid the dealership will see it when they do any work or an oil change

If I could somehow get a dealership to install it I would find it hard to believe that they would void my warranty for something they did...

Default an aftermarket DV will not void your warranty . . . period

only instance I can think of is if its a BOV which will throw codes on a DBW . . . but it would only void warranty coverage for the particular service call.

Default BS...It will not void your warranty

1. just save your OEM, If you think you are getting codes r/t the turbo, etc., swap out back to the OEM. But these dealers that are scaring customers from simple mods, are screwing themselves out of future business from that demographic.
IMO. Email me .

Default You just have to talk to the right people at dealerships

the sales people don't know ****. Talk to the service managers they know exactly what constitutes voiding a warrenty.
