What have you had replaced on Warranty

[tbellamy85]

Finally got down to ringing Mondial today and sorted Warranty.
Got her booked in next week for a check over just to be on the safe side, wanted to ask a question though!

My car is due to have a full SS Centre and Lightweight Racing Box fitted at Evolve and was wondering if this will void the warranty? also I was going to get the car mapped after as Sal said some nice gains can be made at top end on the revs. BBK will also be fitted hopefully next month, and I spoke to a mechanic back at a BMW Club Meet and he said BBK is usually ok....

To be honest mate, wasn't that bothered about the map anyway. Just wanted a nice pipe setup

Depends who your dealer is, Halliwell jones in warrington refused a warranty claim on a big engine build for a member on here, "because they noticed on a service a yr earlier that a miltek backbox was fitted"

In reality a back box will not cause an engine issue- end of. But in jobsworth wanker worlds, they think it will.

Be careful who you use to undertake works on your car is the key.

Yeah, alot of people out there are Jockys!
When I first took my normal M3 to Sytner they said all sorts was wrong with it, but took it to a specialist and they said it was fine.
Altough I have now built trust in the service department at Sheffield Sytner.

Thanks for the advice Shane.

South Yorshire, no probs, fit what you like and straight down A1 to Murketts with it. Would go with BBK and suspension, even a cage like mine, but regards remap, too many arguments for and against on this one, personally I wouldnt bother, get it wrong and the CSL will hurt you just fine how BMW designed it !!

Might give this one a go depending on mileage getting there, if its a fair distance will just stick to Sytner Sheffield or even give Stratstone at Chesterfield ago.

Any names for Murketts Dunc?

Leaving the remap, like you say its not worth it for minimal gains. Plus the CSL is good out of the box.

Items I see fitting are SS Light Race Box / SS Centre Pipe / AP BBK all round eventually.
