Exhaust upgrade void warranty?

[aeoniix]

I got myself a well looked after 2011 Hyundai i20 1.4, with a 2 year unlimited mileage warranty (that costs 15k extra, for those wondering), but the stock exhaust sounds kak. Just wondering if doing a freeflow/ removing one of the center boxes will void my warranty. And if anyone has any shops they can recommend in the Joburg south/ Vaal area that does proper work, it would be appreciated.

With Hyundai they will void the warranty from what I have heard.
Someone else may something of their experience that differs. Bit my friends warranty was void after a mod he made to his.

Based on the age it's most likely a 3rd party warranty. I think you'll be ok.

If car is still under original warranty.

Call you car dealer, or nearest Hyundai dealer.
Ask them if they will void warranty if installing a full free flow or a box at a Certified Fitment Center.

I had a Polo Vivo new out of box 2012, and all I did was I run up the garage were I bought it (Gateway Volkswagen - Carletonville), asked them if I take my car to a Certified Fitment Center like Supa Quick or Hi-Q, will it void warranty, and they said if it is done by a Certified Fitment Center with proof of the installation slip, then no it will not void warranty.

So what I did was, went to Hi-Q

Installed a full exhaust
Installed Tow bar
New tires with mags

Was all good to go

It's kind of like an extended warranty that you take after your original warranty has expired. They only cover major damages, not the small things a normal warranty would.
