you will only void your warranty if the issue your reporting/claiming is directly a result of your mod/s if that make since.

as for the AFS it will keep blinking 24/7 along as the car is on. I've just installed a set of 2012 ome lights and the afs function was removed from 2012 on the IS i believe. so my light keeps flashing. on the weekend i pan to open my speedo and remove the build as i wont be changing these new headlights.

hope that helps.

Thanks all I cleaned up the headlights with the 3M Headlight Restore Kit and they are back to almost brand new. I think I will skip the whole new lights so I dont void the warranty but I still want LEDs. If i buy the LED kit do you think that will make it the AFS light turn on and will the AFS still work if I do so? These are the kits I am looking at for high/low beam and fog light?

as long as you leave your original xenons in you shouldn't have any issues. i installed these from a 2013 model so my ask is blinking non stop but i will sort that at the weekend.

if you're switching to LED's and don't currently have factory HID's, you shouldn't have any issues. Either way AFS should not turn on unless you're switching out the entire headlight and putting in a headlight that is not AFS compatible.
