Turbo FRS with tail light condensation
 
Hello Guys

Im getting tail light condensation again.
They were replaced once and now its happening again
My frs is turbo now so Im not sure if they will cover it again

What do u guys think?

Why wouldnt they cover your tails? One is not related to the other.
Did you modify them?

Good excuse to get some spyder or valenti tails.

Honestly, it's not like Subaru/Toyota have figured out the fix for them yet. They will just replace it and then you'll probably get condensation again in a few months. Your best bet is to just make some thicker gaskets yourself and call it done.

No modifications but you know how dealers are

How hard is to do the gasket thing?

Dealer won't say anything , if your power train had failed then maybe they would blame the turbo .. But lights?

What are they gonna say the boost caused the condensation?

P.s: you went FI knowing your warranty may be voided , it may be voided with this or next time you go .. Who knows

Voiding the whole warranty

There is no such thing as voiding the whole warranty. They have to cover your tailights even if you had a different engine in the car...

Nothing, but you know dealers, some would try to find any excuse they can. :iono:

If some dealers wont do it, I'm sure another will. I also remember reading a thread where a dealer let the guy do the taillights himself because he told them how there is a specific way to install and what not so they were able to send him the tails to do himself.
