Please run these issues past the Big Wigs and get thier opinion:
1) Approved windshield washer fluid?
2) Maximum allowable nitrogen concentration in run flat tires?
3) Minimum allowable IQ of C7 service technician?
4) Full synthetic or blend muffler bearing lube?
5) Minimum allowable ambient temperature of blinker fluid?
Thanks!

I am now selling blinker fluid coolers at $19.95 for those of you who have experienced higher than expected blinker fluid temperatures. If you order before Jan 1, I'll throw in a second one free... Just pay additional shipping and handling.

Actually the question is covered by Federal Law. The Magnuson Moss Warranty Act controls the issue. It provides that in order to deny a warranty claim the manufacturer must prove that the modification caused the problem.
So, as an example, if you put on a supercharger, they cannot deny your warranty claim for a defective differential.
Few car dealerships understand or are even aware of the law.

"The excessive power that was being output from the engine broke the differential because it was not designed to handle over 460 horsepower. Due to this excessive horsepower configuration the differential was shattered to thousand pieces and the computer tune and performance intake is to blame"
YOu want warranty? don't touch the tune and bring everythig back to stock when you take it to the dealer. lol
if you're one of the few unlucky ones where you engine blows up and you happened to have a set of headers and tune, you'll be **** out of luck. lol
