sssilver New Member 18 Member For: 14y 5m 23d Posted 29/11/11 05:15 AM Share Posted 29/11/11 05:15 AM Hey Guys. My Fg T ute has a clunky diff and Ford told me today they cant do anything about it because I have a SSinductions CAI so my drive line warranty has been voided. Has anyone else has this problem? is there anything I can do about this?CheersSam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CAI alone shoudn't void whole diveline warrant that sucks balls IMOShow the dealer the bit in the manual where it states that the modification hasto directly caused the component failure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sending Ford and the dealership an email now telling them what I think of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sssilver New Member 18 Member For: 14y 5m 23d Posted 29/11/11 08:25 AM Author Share Posted 29/11/11 08:25 AM The Ford Warranty and Service Guide states that 'A claim under the Ford Vehicle Warranty will also be rejected if a Modification is made to the vehicle by, or for you and such modification adversely affects the performance / compliance of the part in respect of which such claim is made.' I put that in the email and told them the Ford Mechanics could not even tell me how a CAI can affect Diff performance. The only reason I havnt had a custom tune was because of the warranty. Think I might book it into Real Dyno Tuning next week and get it done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vevapower Waiting for the 1st N/A 12! Donating Members 2,533 Member For: 16y 2m 5d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 29/11/11 09:28 AM Share Posted 29/11/11 09:28 AM I've had the diff bushes done twice, shocks replaced and numerous other warranty claims and my list of mods is like a monthly shopping list!All depends on the dealer and also who you know, but that DH who knocked you back for a CAI should have said "yeah no worries mate but when you bring it in can you make sure the stock air box is on" Now that's how it should have gone!
