Dealers will deny any engine warranty work for anyone who has their car tuned because it is not OEM. So are they going to cover your warranty work because they sold you a car that was tuned? They certified it. My fear is that you will go to have warranty work done and they will accuse you of tuning the car, and will deny your claim.
The trashed transmission could also be a negative sign of the previous owner.
I said could for a reason. I need a new tranny thanks to bad synchros and I do not thrash my car. I drive spiritedly but im not chirping tires between shifts as I race down the track.
