Working at a dealer comes in handy. We dont really mind covering things under warranty. Unless is obvious that the aftermarket part caused the failure. We have a few people comming in here with full exhaust, superchargers etc on there GTO and other vehicles. But in some cases if we were to warranty a part that was damaged due to lets say a supercharger or something, and GM asks for the failed part or parts back. Which they inspect, and find something they shouldnt have, they can charge the dealer back or even have the customer bring his car back for a GM rep to inspect.

Well, maybe they could say that the car is now soooo fast that the speed is causing the paint to come off.........

Seriously, I had one of the injectors making a nasty ticking noise, I thought it was a lifter it was so loud. I told the dealer that one of the lifters was ticking and they told me it was because of the headers...... WTF?!?!?!? It took some looking into and I found out what it was on my own.....

How bad was the noise (I'm assuming it was making a noise)when you brought it to the dealer? Did it increase with RPMs?
