Warranty issues?

Hey guys wanted to know for all you owners with full catback exhausts excluding (down pipes)just front and x pipes, that if you BMW gives you any problems with warranty or voids it? And any owners that had issues for putting on after market springs (h&r springs)? Or is warranty not even an issue because money is not a problem.

I would think BMW will void any sort of warranty work associated to those parts. Like if you have springs on, and go in for a suspension issue, they will surely blame your mods. They couldnt deny warranty work on your engine for suspension mods obiously. But I also think YMMV on this based on your relationship with your dealership. Some dealerships are mod friendly

This.

Don't worry about the exhaust. Very very common mod.

True dat.

I'm a celebrity over at my dealership. I give the General Service Manager rides in my M5 whenever I pop-in to visit and hang out with my SA. Everybody at the dealership knows me. They all love whenever I come in. They even said that when the M6 Gran Coupe comes in they'll let me drive it anytime I drop by.
