Warranty

At what point does Mini give you issues on mods?
1. Intake?
2. FMIC
3. Downpipe?

I know I need to put the stock tune back in before taking the car in for service - do they hassle you about catless down pipes and FMIC replacement?

Thanks in advance

Each dealership has their own level of tolerance for mods.

+1^ also depends on why the car is there. IF they can blame an aftermarket part for a failure or warranty issue they will.

As soon as some parts break or there are problems and you want to have some warranty work fine on it.

Some dealers are more liberal on their definition of cause.
