Default lowering springs void warranty???

I want to put Tanabe springs on my 2013 F Sport, but the dealer told me doing so would negate the warranty. I know they have to prove that the springs damaged or broke what is being repaired, but has anyone had any problems with the dealer because their car is lowered?

Yep just like that link states. In other words if the springs caused the struts to go early then you would have to pay for that.

My thoughts exactly, I just had to get them to understand that and they finally do. Now for the hard part.. waiting for the springs to arrive.

Do it right and get it setup right from the get go. Its unfortunate that there isn't any aftermarket camber/toe correction parts.
