- What will void your warranty according to Subaru? Watch the video to find out. I talk about talking with Subaru dealers to find out what modifications I can do without voiding the warranty on my WRX. I address things like, will an exhaust on a WRX void a warranty? Will a tune on a WRX void a warranty? And most importantly, how to make sure you don't void the warranty on your Subaru WRX.
Topics:
voiding my warranty
should you modify with a warranty subaru wrx
will this void my warranty
car modifications that will void your warranty
I couldn't get past your Lego hair
Him: "I have a CVT"
Me wanting to know if tuning my car to remove rev hang will void the warranty: "I'm bout to head out"
It will, check out one of my more recent videos on my new WRX.
I got my engine replaced under warranty after cylinder 2 blew out on the dyno getting it tuned
Lol
:D
James Reenstra lucky where do you live
Lmao like being forgiven after getting caught cheating
😂😂
I must be really lucky cause my dealer is fucking cool and almost everyone that works there is modded. They even told me they don't care and they been seeing my parts for the last year now and they said as long as I don't run e85 gas or fuck with the turbo they said they don't care. Like switching the turbo out. I now have the cat back, ap, tgv deletes and they have yet to say anything bad about it. I swear this is true, the first day I went in and tried to feel them out and ask what I can do, the guy looked at me and said if your worried about it just keep the stock old parts in case we have to put those on and take pics. They have been so cool and always doing a good job with the car and what not. I have been dealing with the same dealer and same guys that work there so maybe that's just that dealer and I got lucky. But I would advise everyone to feel out the dealer they are going to and if they seem like they are going to be dicks don't do it . It's not worth it.
This is a great topic. I voided my Evo's warranty in less than a week lol. The drive train anyway.
I agree with everything except how you said they can see if you tuned the car.. I am here to tell you that is all bogus. There is nothing left in the ecu note that speciafaclly say “this ecu was tuned” they can see key turn counts and reflash dates but no Subaru dealer is gonna deny a claim because of ecu notes. I had a tuner tell me this before installed my AP.. well guess what I installed my AP and got rodnock.. took it off and flashed it to stock and Subaru never said a word... they replaced that motor for absolutely free I didn’t have to pay shit.
Well this is fraud so i prolly wouldn't brag about it.
hardly
If they can see a date Everytime it's been reflashed then they could see if it was modified. Unless you mean the date of the OEM revision?
Chevy sucks just loop holes
false. the stock tune has a Serial number associated with it which the Cobb AP can not duplicate. per Cobb and every reputable tuner I've talked to. all depends on your relationship with the dealer if they choose to turn a blind eye.
I took my j Pipe off, my tgv deletes off, my EGR deletes off and flashed back to factory tune to get my throw out bearing replaced at 25K miles. I also cycled the key 100 times on and off as per instruction from a friend who works as a service tech at Subaru. He said this makes it look like the Ecu hasn't had any modifications to its tune for atleast 100 engine cycles. No questions asked at the dealership.
Thanks for the solid info.
Two6sicks did you uninstall the ap when you flashed back to stock?? Or just flashed it and unplugged it?
Mine is stage 2 with around 325 awhp..I had a grinding type of sound coming from the front that was hard to diagnose..Brought it in, since i look at it like you gotta pay to play, but I didnt think it was related to my mods..turned out my midpipe (3") was touching the crossmember bolt under acceleration..They took the time to make some adjustments for me to correct it at no charge..Now, running 20.5 psi, if I snap a connector rod, im sure I'd be S.o.l..
I cant see driving this car stock..It sucks! The factory tune is bad for the motor the way the boost comes on so low in the rpm range. Zero top end power..Now it pulls like a train, and can run mid to high 12's..12k since stage 2..no issues
Any videos of it running 12’s?
When I bought my 2019 Wrx 2 weeks ago at the dealer the Manager I was filling out my paperwork with said It didn't matter what I modded on it as long as I got it done by a professional. I'm going to call again Tomorrow to make sure about this before i start modding. If this is true it will be great but be a bummer from the extra labor from getting it done "professionally"
Yeah I just had a long talk with a tune shop that works closely with the 3 subaru dealers nearby.. said i shouldnt worry about voiding my warranty if I mod with them. So now im considering getting the cobb ap v3, sf intake, type ra airbox, an iag aos, and a protune for my 19 sti with 15k. They quoted me ~$2300 for everything. Hmmmm...
@@suchgr8hieghts thought about talking to tech at different places nearby myself but who's to say they're being honest or maybe its a difgerent tech. Definitely not looking to tune for any real hp gains myself, mainly to smooth out the rpm range. Will find out this week.
@@suchgr8hieghts cobb access port will void the warranty. And it triggers a warning code in the wrx computer so if you go on for a cel it will come back as ecu modified and that can void the warranty.
@@suchgr8hieghts hahaha. Oh, ya that's no problem, as long as a pro did it. Well that's what the federal law says too. OK, so let replace the J pipe, high-flow cat, exhaust, iuntake, intercooler, battery, blowoff valves, etc.
It should be noted that there is no way to void warranty. Dealers can void claims, not entire warranties. If you lower your car on springs and a shock fails, they will likely void the claim because that component was working in a “other than intended use” manner because it was an out of factory or dealer modification using non OEM or OEM spec parts. But if a connecting rod fails or you’re blowing blue smoke, your springs have no influence on your engine so they have to repair this under warranty.
Some dealers however are more modification friendly than others.
I’ve never heard of this 5% rule, this must be specific to your region. My region does not warrant any ECU tuning whether you make 5% more or less power or not. However in my region, they’ve been very lenient with goodwill repairs for certain types of failures.
For example, they’ll replace one clutch within the first bumper to bumper 3 year warranty. Clutches are considered wear items but they will replace it for premature wear even if it’s because of the user. It’s a favor.
The dealer I purchased from is known for replacing entire FA20 engines in the WRX despite excessive mods and an aftermarket tune. Why? Because they want their cars to still be rolling around and want their brand reputation to be great because they simply can’t outsell Hyundai or Toyota. The condition is that the owner pays the price for a new ECM.
Kollbec chrysler jeep voided red flag my friend warranty on is new jk unlimited because he had 3 inch lift, 35 inch tires and wheel spacers. True story here.
Have a bunch of mods including a fmic and flex fuel on my 18 wrx and lowering springs. I cut my half shaft boot installing my lowering springs. Took it to the dealer and they replaced it under warranty.
That's incredible
So do springs void warranty ?
This is something I have wondered as well, and personally I'm not interested in power modifications as my upcoming WRX CVT would be a daily driver that I'm basically planning to keep until the wheels fall off (so to speak) and I would prefer to keep the power not more than stock to ensure as long life of the car as possible.
That being said, as a result, I'm definitely interested in any possible modifications that would help to further protect the engine and transmission such as EGR deletes and AOS (to prevent as much carbon build-up as possible) and possibly a Mishimoto CVT cooler (to keep the CVT temps down as much as possible). I really do wonder if Subaru would deny an engine or CVT fix in these cases since (as mentioned) they are not power mods, but at the same time they do add on to the workflows of the PCV/CCV (splice into), EGR (delete), and CVT (splice into) systems.
Open1Your1Eyes0 with egr deletes you will need a tune. And the dealer can tell if you reset the ecu. But they only check if you blow your motor. Most of the time.
I know this videos old but A) did you have factory warranty or you paid for the extended and B) does an air-oil-separator void a warranty?
Just bought a Magnetite Gray 2022 Premium WRX. It’s no It looks swwwweeeeettttt. Of course it’s a 6-speed manual, and idc if I drove from the time I woke up to bed I’d pick a manual 100% of the times I just wish it was a lil bit louder, and more turbo noise. On a side note my sales rep said that I couldn’t put a cold air intake on it because I’d have to tune it. I hadn’t heard of the 5% rule before, but goddamn these people act like a intake gives you 30hp. She said it was because of the new /bigger engine that big in it wouldn’t run right without a tune with aftermarket intake on it. If my Math is correct it’s about 13.6hp. I don’t care what intake you get! I wouldn’t think you would have to get a tune, or it would give it more than 284.6HP. I wanna know for sure if you can put a cat back exhaust on it. I have a welder, and Im alright at it. I have a technician certificate too so I was hope to find something out. An external waste gate, or a blow off valve wouldn’t be 5% either. Id say that void it tho.
Subaru of Orange Coast. they are mod friendly. to some extent.
Yes that's what the service rep told me too when i took my car in for service
By the way, putting an intake on will throw cell codes, intake temp too cold and some other bullshit. Itll run like crap without a tune, if at all.
What it takes to void a Subaru warranty, anything! Put a k&n sticker and they will void.
Would something like an oil cooler/catch can or a bigger radiator void my warranty?
And I have had my clutch slave cylinder replaced as well as my steering wheel
Good to know, i dont intend to do power mods on my 2017 wrx (stick shift :D) but i do want to swap exhaust, and possibly lower it
i have the 2018 wrx CVT and i feal u man. traffic is a bitch when driving manual
agreed
Will changing my down pipe to a Cobb for my 2017 wrx void the warranty? Kinda hard to get a solid yes or no please let me know fellow subarians ! Definitely don't want to wait to change the down pipe for my first mod
you'll need to get a tune with a new down pipe, so yes it will void your warranty.
New engine and transmission
Is it possible to put a invidia r400 exhaust on a wrx with a cvt transmission?
Totally!
Auto Enthusiast ok sounds good thanks! :)
I just blew my motor on my 2015 wrx a couple of days ago. I have the stp cat back exhaust and aem intake. Low ass mileage as well 26 k. Since I had the intake they said it voids the warranty. Fuck em! I had no energy to argue plus it happened on my bday which sucks. Day after I traded for a golf R.
Were you running a tune with the intake?.....
@@AutoEnthusiast yes Cobb stage 1
Would changing the OEM 25 Battery to a more powerful battery like the odyssey 24 battery be considered adding more power to the car and hence void the warranty?
full exhaust and intake and no problems
Good vid man. Informative and to the point.
I just had to comment on all the salty little bitches in here whining about having to "justify" driving CVT lmao. It's a rally car guys. It's meant to have someone go conventional foot to floor shifting and get on it a little bit. Don't come on TH-cam and have your period because your dad never showed you how to drive stick. I personally don't give AF if someone buys a CVT, but pretending that manual is going to be dead within the next few years is just silly. These are the same people that want soy in all their food products and think it's ok to give their small children hormone blockers. Don't listen to them! lol..
I've got the CVT as well and I take a lot of grief for it, but its a very smooth ride and lots of fun. My first car was manual and i didn't care for it during winter commutes.
When I picked up the car from subaru I asked this question as well. They said they try to accommodate their customers and will continue to honour the warranty on the parts unconnected to the mods.
Ur a puss
They have to prove it contributed to the breakdown! Subies are no different than any other car on there. That being said if you have a 500+ hp car on stock internals don't expect that to apply.
highspeedtubing “The FTC says the manufacturer or dealer must show that the aftermarket or recycled part caused the need for repairs before denying warranty coverage.”
The Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act makes it illegal for companies to void your warranty or deny coverage under the warranty simply because you used an aftermarket or recycled part.
Federal law
Totally agree, no car company can deny service unless proven that the issue was directly caused by an add-on etc, my ford dealer even told me this, and since it is a Federal law, all companies are bound to it. So any dealer that tells otherwise, just wave a copy of *The Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act* in there face and they can't do shit lol.
@highspeedtubing Under your reasoning, it would void the warranty to change your own oil. I really don't know why this is so confusing. It is the law that you have the "right to tinker". Any failure/fault to not be covered under warranty needs to be the direct result of a modification e.g. NOS blowing your motor is an easy example. Further, the dealer themselves have nothing to lose doing warranty work. The finacial burden is that of subaru and it is accounted for with allowances already in place on the books. People act like companies lose money doing warranty work but the fact is it's already expensed before the work, or need for it, ever takes place. (I'm an Accountant)
Extremely helpful, thank you for posting a video about this!
They want to void my warranty due I change my own oil although I document everything. I even use the oil filter from the dealership. A oil and tire rotation costs $106 at the dealership. 2018 Subaru Outback Premium
Can the tune be reset if you use an AP or is it pretty much protocol to try and diagnose this and find if it's been flashed. In reality, unless the car was going to fail because of defect, a good tunw shouldn't break the car. Heard many ots tunes are SAFER than stock.
--I just came from the dealer where I ordered my 2022 WRX and discussed the Subaru Added Security Gold Plus Coverage and regular power train warranty, etc. He said that a cat-back exhaust and intake does NOT void the warranty, esp. if I buy the Added Security Gold coverage. In fact, if I buy the Gold Plus coverage, it covers essentially everything and is not voided by me driving like a mad man and dropping the clutch. I specifically asked if racing the car, dropping the clutch at stop lights, blowing the engine, or sending a gear out the side of the trans case would be covered and repaired, and the finance manager said YES, Subaru will repair/replace the engine, etc. even if those circumstances occurred, so long as I don't mod beyond basic things like a cat-back, intake, etc. Change the blowoff valve, and yes it will void the warranty.
--Also, there is a law (Magnuson Moss Warranty Act) that says that they MUST PROVE that your mod caused the damage in order to void it, so that is wrong. They also MUST PROVE that the upgrade was improper, i.e., that it wasn't tuned correctly.
This is wrong in so many levels, watch some of the updated warranty vids. You were peddled a sales pitch. If you look at the underwritten warranty none of the above is true. Also Mag Moss isn't that, it just says you have the right to complete normal maintenance yourself. Doing anything to change the original performance of the vehicle is outside of the underwritten scope of what is normal.
Had a full shifter assembly replaced under warranty and I'm tuned with bolt ons
what dealer lol, I think many would like to know
suspension?
I know this video is a few years old, but the record needs to be set straight. Subaru dealerships have no say in whether the Warranty claim will be denied. That is strictly up to SOA, as the Warranty is between SOA and the Buyer ( you ). SOA also doesn't have a set policy in place for warranty denial aside from abuse. SOA has covered tuned engines on many occasions and will continue to do so. Lastly, your Warranty CANNOT be voided.... period. Magnuson Moss Act covers this topic very clearly. Read it.
Wait you fr ?
So if I get a stage 1 tune on my wrx, will that avoid my warranty.
Yep
What if some happen n I reflash it they wouldn’t know right? Im thinking of stage 1 mine soon n I have around 58k miles on it with just muffler deletes on (3in)
How did you get your steering wheel, shift knob, AC blower replaced? What verbage did you use to get the parts replaced?
Mod friendly dealers in Michigan?
Automatic WRX = Oxymoron.
Tell em!
what about a boomba bpv and boomba intake?
subaru wrx sti
The Subaru dealer I got mine at said that anything that changes the power of the vehicle or has to do with the engine will void warranty. Even a cat back or even a axle back exhaust.
nope you are fine with a lot of things like a catback and axleback, it's federal law. Mag moss act.
As you said cat back exhaust is ok, I just recently did my upgrade. Will this void it?
no catback will not "void" a warranty
Cylinder 4 bearing failure occurred on my 14 BRZ . I placed the original header and re-flashed the ecu to stock. Small block was replaced under warranty with a perrin 3 inch cat back still on the car. I also didn't have ANY service receipts as I did all my oil changes myself. I was very shocked... I agree with what was said about keeping the customer happy. I believe Subaru does try to maintain that.
I wonder if a drop in K&N filter is safe? It should be, plus it also frees up a little HP for that turbo.
Might be safe for the car, I would guess not for the warranty.
Yes if you are referring to the K&N filter that is square (and fits inside the stock airbox) then yes. Dealers cannot require that you use only their brand of part
You do risk the oil from filter dripping on sensor and it allows more airflow so might cause an issue with stock tune. Just info a bunch of people gave me on my Subaru group page. Idk how accurate it is but that’s what I’m told.
YOU CANT JUSTIFY DRIVING AN AUTO WRX lol
can and will lol (said as a guy driving a manual now)
I just bought a 2020 wrx with a 60k warranty. If I add a Seibon Carbon fiber wing and drill into my trunk will it void my warranty?
Most likely yes
No not at all
Would muffler delete void my imprezas warranty ik it sounds stupid taking the muffler off but I do have it to throw back on
Deletes are just fine. Just keep the stock gasket and tips and swap before you take it in. If not you should be ok either way
Can I put fog lights on my BRZ? Some models have them on sure just plugging in a light won't affect the electrical and power.
What if I got a pre owned under warranty that has been modded?
What about a by pass value?
VOID- the would potentially claim it spit out metered air creating a rich condition, causing damage.
Underrated Channel. More people should know about this! I didn't know about the 5% rule and also thanks for debunking the misconception of dealer have to 'prove the mods broke it'.
Thanks man! Yeah its still a debated topic, most techs will say to fight it no matter what. Some will even say that they will service them because they own tuned WRX's!
This video by itself didn't debunk anything. It doesn't matter what the poster said, what the dealership said, or what anybody that builds aftermarket parts said. That service manager can spew any BS he wants, he is not obligated nor probably even qualified to determine what is a lawful denial of a warranty claim. The only thing that matters is what the law says.
I have seen more lies from dealerships, and especially dealer service departments, than from a whole bunch of politicians. So unless someone puts forth some actual in-depth legal information on the subject to support the claim, I don't believe a service manager any farther than I can throw them.
PS: You can start with the Magnuson-Moss Act. That federal statute defines warranties in the US.
Hey I noticed you live in NH. I live there too. The front desk guy at the dealership in haverhill said that even a catback exhaust would void the warranty
It should NOT void the warranty. I am looking into switching my exhaust to a Nameless Axleback 5" muffler, similar to the borla system, but with a little more rumble. Any input is appreciated!
Subaru SELLS the STI exhaust for the WRX - it's a smooth, mandrel-bent cat-back exhaust. Functionally identical to other cat-back aftermarket exhausts. Exhausts, unless much more radical (greatly increased diameter, etc) will not void a warranty. My local dealer even accepts a Stage 1 tune as non-damaging - they're smart enough to know the extra-lean stock tune is more likely to cause harm than a richer tune such as a Cobb AP Stage 1. Richer can mean cooler and for the engine, gets rid of lean spots in power delivery, etc. Not all dealers are hard headed about this stuff. You start changing engine components, going to higher stage tunes, etc, you do so at your own risk.
I used to live in Haverhill, dude sounds like a moron.
@@FunTimeWithSouls right! I'm not ever taking my car to haverhill for anything. 😂
YOU SHOULD READ THE MOSS-MAGBUSON ACT BEFORE YOU GIVE THIS INFORMATION
I have and did, take a look at the actual verbiage of the rule...
Because you decease engine life
Does your cvt drive like a dog in Intelligent mode?
It actually doesnt, its actually pretty quick and response.
I couldn't get past the WRX being a CVT
i hear wheels tires catback or muffler delete. anything cosmetic. nothing that changes engine airflow can be put on it. check out the 3in nameless muffler delete. i think im going to get it. let me know what you think about it!
I have the catback with 4 inch tips and muffler deletes, love it. Totally worth getting the full catback.
Is it possible to buy the axle back 1st, and then the rest of the system at a later date?
yeah definitely!
if i get a j pipe would it void my warranty, also would it pass emissions?
100% would lead to a warranty claim denial. Depends, is it catted?
yea
@@kingzach8444 then yeah
Have fun your cvt my dude. I have a 2015 mt and my wife has a 2016 cvt. Her car started having major issues with stalling and transmission problems and Subaru basically told us they wouldnt fix it because they're not authorized to work on the cvt. That's coming straight from the headquarters. Hope it doesnt happen to you but I wont be buying a dealership Subaru ever again. Worst customer service ever.
They look at key turns. That's how they know
Andrew Copeman huh
I’ve been modding cars for 20+ yrs. It’s a lot of fun and exciting payoff. But why do it to a brand new daily? Wasn’t the whole point of buying “brand new” so you could get something reliable and unmolested and covered under a warranty? Don’t you wanna, not worry about your car breaking down and if it’s covered? Haven’t you seen enough TH-cam videos of these wrx’s getting modded and eventually breaking things related and not related to modification? C’mon people!!! It’s not a slow car! But to the ones making crazy mods, keep it up, I love the fail videos👍🏼👍🏼
i agree with having the warranty part and keeping it on a brand new car but most of the fail videos or comments are people modding there car and have no idea what they are doing. aka putting a down pipe on without a tune
lmfao link me that video of someone putting a downpipe without a tune. That's hilarious.
Salty much? Sounds like maybe you had a fail of your own..
Yeah. I want a new one. Unmolested. Only thing I'll do is change wheels or something. If want to MOD one I'll get an 06.
How the hell does this guy afford a wrx
saifMSK lol what?
He is making more money than you are
ummm? they arnt that expensive unless ur talking about the STi which is over priced for what you get
What about changing the stereo? Does that void warranty?
It might cause Subaru to not fix electrical issues if you are still under bumper to bumper, unlikely though
Just spoke with warranty company and it only voids the stereo part of the warranty and it’s by law of 1975. Jeep stereo isn’t very good.
The law is the Mag Moss Act. And its only the stereo if it doesn't change any wiring or uses the stock harnesses, which rarely happens.
Will an accessport void the warranty?
it won't "void" your warranty, but your chances of getting anything mechanical fixed are next to zero.
Well considering I just had Subaru of Canada deny my warranty claim for a had gasket fix basked on having an AP stage 1 tune at about 90k KM's no i do not suggest it
My 16 threw a knock sensor code and the dealer refused to honor warranty because I am at Cobb 1+.
Fucking lame given the garbage stock map.
Did you flash the stock map back on before taking it to the dealer?
even if you take it off tthey will know if youve EVER had an accessport
If I put on a nameless axleback (muffler delete) will that void my warranty? If it does, if I put back the stock muffler before I bring it in, can they tell? It's just a muffler delete. It's the back portion of the exhaust system and it's really easy to install.
Eric joker thanks man, and yea I've heard most dealers just turn a blind eye. If it's not too serious
any type of modification will need a tune or run the risk of running into problems down the line.
Niko Pichardo not true with a catback..You dont need a tune with a catback..Even subaru says so..Anything else like cai, j pipe etc, since its a d.i., you need a tune
Niko Pichardo um false. You can put on a catback or axle back with no problem. You need a tune for intake, j pipe, ect.. I do miss my srt4. I had every mod on that car and no tune. But with the wrx motor you do need to be a little bit more careful with what you do. But no tune for car back. I have been running a cat back for a year now and no problems
your incorrect you can do a lot of mods without ever needing to tune ur car or ecu
DAYUMMM! Hit the gym pal
Great so I'm not gonna do anything with my new wrx for a few years... no intake and exhaust? Just gonna talk to my dealer not listening to this kid
I went with the CVT for 2 reasons. One as a daily driver and the other being medical reasons. Bad knees make for a bitch of a time shifting in a manual. I wish Subaru would have went with a different style transmission, but not a lot can be done about it if that's what they want.
A dual clutch would be nice, or even something similar to a zf automatic transmission.
I asked my dealership one day if i could Drop in K&N filter they said it was ok because it was just a drop in. But it does increase the torque and H.P. pretty well. Did you have the same answer or have you asked that question.
There is a lot of info out there on drop ins. On newer ones tuners will tell you even a drop in needs a tune. Do your homework before you install something.
I'm upvoting b/c the information was good. But i hate you for the CVT "daily driver" as an excuse. You will like the manual more after a few weeks of driving. Change it up next car! ;) Its like a gamer playing on console. Join the master race. PC gaming/Manual Only or gtfo.
What if he only has one leg genius
@@shahin5025 what type of dumb thought is that? the guy said he wanted it for daily driving- not because he was missing a leg but because he "couldn't daily drive" the manual. Which seems ridiculous to me and the guy above because the character of the WRX is of a sporty car which is more on the raw side. And frankly, this guy seems to live in the middle of nowhere. If I (and the other 4 million residents) can drive a manual daily in Athens, Greece (where the traffic is fuckin brutal) then he can handle it living in the woods.
Stop saying “cvt” just call it a auto you nasty
They are completely different...
there are 2 main transmitions. manual auto and cvt. all completely different in how they work and function. a cvt is completely different to drive compared to an auto.
This is my 7th wrx plus had i sti. Been buying these cars brandnew from 2005. I have now a 2016 wrx. And went with cvt this time and don't regret it ounce. I hate how people feel the need to justifie if they drive a cvt. Its 2018 now. Read a legit mag. Manaul will be extinct period. Dont miss manaul one bit. Stop justifying and just buy what you want. A screw who ever says anything there small minded period
Well said
I'm considering buying a CVT to daily drive while I built my WRX.... I'm currently daily driving a Camry.
Im not hating but what about someone who wants to do a high horsepower build? CVT can't handle it
Mike Bodner Moore performance In Pittsburgh PA does high end builds on cvt. The most powerful they have done is 480 to wheels. It was on 2015 wrx
WRX best served with 3 pedals. Just got my fist one and the best part of driving it is slammin through the gears
