Wow!!! The dealership and warranty is so strict now cause of some stupid dudes who set up their cars to the max and ask dealership to fix their cars if the engine blows. That's the start of them being an pain in the butt! They want this, want that, what's this?!

Ya but that just sucks tho because what is an Evo without mods and also the dealership where I bought the car even sells aftermarket mods and they encouraged me mod my car and I still can service my car through SCM in Socal.

im sure if you bought the parts from them and paid for them to install them they would still service your car.

but if you buy them somewhere else and install them youself...its not the same thing, they dont make any money off that.

Yea I can see where they coming from. But the thing is they still should take cars that are modded even tho it wasn't bought from them. I guess they they want to monopolize their customers. Good marketing tool.

When you have a leaky transfer case, does light appear on the dash to tell you it's low on oil? Also, how'd you know you were leaking oil? Do you have to take off the plastic undertray, or the oil dripped past it? Did your car make any sounds or a whining sound also?
