Which is the main reason I sold my Jeep Rubicon with its 20 mpg mileage and got the TDI!!

Ha!....I told myself that I would wait until I had 10K km on the car before I started to mod it.

But small things don't count right? Like an antenna or clear markers or coilovers?

Vulcan, which chip were you planning to put in? You worried about warranty issues?

Screw that. Do you think VW's are such a bad car that you will have specific engine related warranty issues on a diesel?

They cannot void your entire warranty based upon a chip. They can refuse warranty claims if THEY can PROVE that the chip caused it. If something like your alternator fails there is no way they can deny that based upon the chip.

Diesel engines don't break.

Re: First Week of Ownership

Umm they can void your warranty alot more easily than you think. You don't heat stories on teh vortex about, the dealer tried to void my warranty but couldn't

Re: First Week of Ownership

Canada adheres to the Magnusson-Moss warranty act (a US statute) very closely.

If they try to weasel out, just ***** more. Just waste SO much of their time that it would be cheaper for them just to replace the car. Once you start bitching to higher levels of VWOA (i.e. the guys making 100k+ a year) they will usually just push it through instead of having you waste their time.
