No, an intake will not void the warranty on your clutch slave cylinder. The cylinder is what actuates your clutch.

I agree with Shifted, but i've heard of dealers finding ways to get out of warranties. I would have paid about 800 bux for mine, and they said it would have been about 3 days of work. I took it to my girlfriends shop (b4 we got together) and they charged me just over 500, part's and labor and it was done the next day

Magnussen-Moss warranty act states that they cannot legally blame one part that is not directly affected on another part. So an intake will not void the warranty on your throttle body. The only thing an intake voids the warranty on is your stock intake.

It's covered. Mine went out too. And I had everything in my registry installed when it happened.

Shifted, the only part that would be voided would be the AIT sensor, right?

let me add to that-

if your modification causes damage, then they dont have to fix what was damaged. say for example you put on an intake, but youre stupid and didnt put a filter on the end. you suck up a dime, and destroy your engine because you now have a dime melted to your piston. youre out of luck because your modification caused the damage.

for the record, to argue a stupid point, if you were lucky enough to suck up a dime in through your intake, and it didn't bend a valve, and whatnot. and it were to " weld" to a piston, it would run fine, i had broken off many a swelled glow plugs that wouldn't come out of the hole on diesels in the usmc. and it would clank and all till it did attach it's self to the piston.... lmao, we would do a head gasket on a hummer. and it would sometimes have a couple like that.. funny @!#$ i tell ya!
