Re: K&N...long

Hey all,

     The dealer absolutely cannot void any warranty for the K&N filter.  
As I understand it, under the Magnason-Moss Act (sp?) of 1986, a 
manufacturer (dealer) cannot void a warranty for a replacement part that 
it does not pay for.  Thus, you can install any replacement part (e.g. 
air filter) that VWOA doesn't pay for, as long as the part is designed 
for the car (and it doesn't even have to meet OEM specifications). The 
other mods (e.g. snow screen removal) are not so absolute.
