Will Coilovers affect warranty?

[DrewT]

Evening!
I’m after some advice on fitting coilovers and how I stand with Vw warranty.
My t6 is a 69 and has been back to Vw after 9000miles for a new steering rack but they didn’t replace the pump. I’m having coilovers fitted next week and was wondering if this would effect any warranty claims on anything else other than the suspension components which obviously won’t be under warranty. Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks

If you fit the Eibach coilovers then your warranty will be intact , as they are recognised by VW.
However other suspension will come with its own warranty and unless directly proved to be the fault of the third part fault you should be fine.

Thanks for the reply
Hopefully should be ok then, just worried if anything else goes wrong steering wise, but hopefully should be ok on that front as it’s had steering issues previously

There are so many modified vans on the road now, unless you come across a particularly poor dealer you will be fine.

Hopefully theyre not too awkward if any problems if there are any to happen! Thanks

I’m guessing Bill14’s/Eibach wouldn’t be covered?! Got a rumble at low turning speeds which was present before suspension kit fitted.. only really notice it when the revs are low and I think when you increase the revs it doesn’t do it.. had kds done after suspension fitted but still doing it, will top up steering fluid but not hopeful it will cure it. Might take the suspension off again which would suck but take it in to vw as it’s still under warranty.

Eibach are the only warranty friendly Coilovers. However they would need to prove the noise was caused by your coilovers, which I suspect not, as it was already there.
