Re: Cost of exhaust tip upgrade?

[quote="Raj"]Tbh they can only use it against warranty if it directly causes the warrantied part to fail. When mine was under warranty (and being as modified as it is) I still had all my warrantied bits replaced with no issues.
The tips won't be an issue. As for insurance, technically yes you do need to tell them. But highly, highly unlikely an insurance claim would be refused as most wouldn't know they were aftermarket.

I agree and I think the warranty is worded that way, but I can imagine questions being raised if something exhaust or DPF related fails....eg. "I'm sorry Sir, the exhaust has been modified, we can't fix that under warranty, that'll be £1,600 please".
