If you think Fitting a TRD Supercharger will keep your warranty intact you are mistaken

got anything to back that up with?? From all indications its going to be warranty supported... provided its installed by a TRD dealer and not some random workshop.

Discussions with my dealership seem to be different to yours evidently.

Worked at a Toyota Dealer for 5 years...Even when we had the TRD vehicles any modifications which are likely to have caused damage to the engine/gearbox will not be covered under warranty.

Its like if you lower your car and then a driveshaft fails I wouldn't expect warranty to cover it (CV angles not correct etc)

I dare say people buying the AVO Turbo Kit are like me and aren't concerned about warranty.

If they are, they should not be buying a turbo kit.

I can appreciate random mods will void warranty, but when buying a factory aftermarket part thats fitted by a "certified service person" then i dont see how they couldnt.

Assuming the TRD supercharger will likely be expensive and low performing in comparison to other offerings (so as to be safe for warranty purposes.) Otherwise who would buy it?

What car have toyota released in the past 5 years that has TRD aftermarket performance accessories for you to compare to..

Just for your information the parts aren't made by Toyota.

TRD - is Toyota Racing Development made by Toyota Technocraft and as such the original vehicle warranty is not covered on these parts. They aren't Toyota factory items as such. They will have a warranty on the parts themselves but I wouldn't like to bank on a warranty on the driveline and engine components. You are increasing the stress on factory driveline and engine components, how can you expect them to warrant them if there is going to be a heavier load on them.

Not trying to be negative just pointing out the realities

Anyone want an early Christmas present? I have a customer that wants a later delivery.
The kit is likely to land early Dec.

First in best dressed. Get in now to avoid a 2-3 month wait.
