Voiding warranty with 7k miles
Well I am sitting around 6400 miles on my 12 ss and I am thinking of pulling the trigger on mods I have stock piled at my house and getting a tune. :eyebulge: I have not had a single problem with the car the required warranty minus the A/C switch but other than that it has been perfect.:happy0180:
on car now is halltech CAI, and SLP Loudmouth (taking off when I get headers). Also going to add the ADM race scoop and figure mounting the washer in the trunk. Speedinc is going to do the install on the following parts :thumbup: LPE GT9 cam, PRC 6.75 springs, rods, NPP exhaust off 1le, LG 1 7/8 headers with out cats, SLP double roller timing chain, SLP Thermostat, SLP 25% UD Pulley. before the tune I will probably cut the SLP off and add the 1le diffuser for when the add the NPP exhaust then I will install NPP in a box at home. Had LG headers and NPP exhaust on my vette and loved that combo. perfect for road trips and nice and loud just cruising on the streets when I wanted it. :cool: One question my dad asked me is if I was just going to void the warranty after owning the car 7 months why did I go new. Simple answer because I know everything going into the car and building it the way I wanted. He said I am ruining it and he grew up with all the muscle cars and had some real nice ones in the late 60's early 70's :noidea: Just wait for the rest of it. :headbang: |
Keep in mind, you'll only be killing your drive-train warranty...so the remainder of your 3/36k warranty will be there if anything else breaks (like your A/C switch).

F the warranty!! :headbang: If something breaks, just replace it with something better.

...contrary to popular belief, the powertrain warranty is not automatically voided with a tune. HOWEVER...if the repair is expensive, the dealer must screenshot the ECM info and send it in to GM for approval, prior to repairs being done. If you are tuned, this step will get the claim denied. I happily voided mine @ 4800 miles. |
Trying to get it scheduled to go in sometime in July for the work and dyno tuning
Been working with Tony and so far it has been a great experience from just general inquiry to deciding to pull the trigger. |
Personally, I bought some mods like headers but have yet to install them simply because I didn't want to be out of pocket for drive train related issues (like needing my timing chains replaced at 54k miles for $1200+). If you can live with the monetary consequences, then mod away (with pics, of course).

Warranties are for people that dont know how to work on cars. If you can do your own work, F the warranty. If you cant fix something when it breaks, Id keep the warranty.
