Hoping its not another urban myth like the old cruise control in the wet causing prangs. Sounds like they can detect it, and as the technology advances they will detect it more and more. When warranty issues come up, then worry about it, but shouldnt stop anyone getting the EDIT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FMIC, injectors, springs etc. He was very impressed and happy to work on the car.I know there'll be no warranty on anything affected by mods, but the preventative measures will be looked after by them. He's happy to do the turbo oil supply screen as they've already had a couple in with that issue. I've even got stickers on the ECU box and plug stating not to flash etc.Like so many have said, you play you pay. Doesn't worry me at all cos now I know the dealer will look after me as much as he can. They have before and they will again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
