hey all.... im new to the site just wanted to say hi to everyone... i have an 05 ralliart, black... hence the name black beauty ... lol anyways.. just got him 4 weeks ago... so im still getting to know all my car can do... i got a new tip put on... just a little larger than the factory one... and that is all i've done so far... though i do want to get new wheels... and that is pretty much all i want to do... i think he looks hot enough on his own.. lol
though i did have a general question... is it true that if you have someone else do the oil changes w/ out a receipt from a garage it cancels out the warranty??
ok well thanks... and ill be checking out the site more...

Welcome to the forums, and congrats on the car. Black is the way to go, but I haven't heard anything about the oil change without a receipt that void your warranty. They have a strict waranty, but i didn't know it was that bad. Check the noobie forums.

Welcome, Here in Sac,CA the dealerships have no problem with me getting my oil changed anywhere else. I change my oil about every 3000 miles, so about half way between warrenty check ups. Have been in for 2 check ups and no problem with the non-mitsu oil filter.

And also it's probably a good idea to bring it in for the regular change intervals. My first one is at 6500+ km so I decided to change it on my own with the amount of driving that I do.

Oh yeah and congrats on getting your new Ralliart. I remember saying that I was going to keep it stock for the most part (aside from seat belt guards and exhaust tip), but I'm going to order an Injen CAI on Tuesday. Damn it...

Then again, it's about 110 here in Phoenix, so I'm stuck running the AC 24/7. Can't enjoy the full potential right now.
