lowering my G void warranty?

I`m new to this forum, so please guide me to the right direction if I`m posting wrong. I just need to know if I lower my car, will it void my warranty?
thanks

Yep, but that's suspension only. If you have an engine issue they can't deny you coverage because you have aftermarket springs or Coilovers. There's laws that specifically cover you for this.

^^ correct! My inside guy at infiniti said go ahead and lower my IPL and if I run into suspension problems put the car back stock and bring it in, they never know..lol he said they never check if the part is broken n the car stock they'll change it right away. But obviously if you do your suspension the right way you won't need the warantee anyway. Good luck keep us posted

Just like daren said, If you absolutely need to, throw on your stock stuff and bring it in for warrantee.

What kind of odds are we going to have suspension problems? I'm on the border about it but after I see where the new building my company is locating to I will change my mind. It's going to be in the area we are at now but some streets have speed bumps and some places have bad curbs to go over.

Ok let me get this straight, If i put a after market lowering kit and I start having problems with it, put the stock and go to the dealer?

or do i have to put the stock back everytime I get it service or if I have any problems?

When you put it like that it doesn't make sense lol but if your going coilovers n camber kits you'll be fine, just get a professional to do it.

Excuse me, a grammar check may be needed here:

Warranty: A guarantee, usually written, for a product or service
Warrantor: The person or entity who gives such a warranty
Warrantee: The person to whom a warranty is given

springs will eventually sag, bad for the suspension = more money spend later on, unless you plan to take it out before that, or you wanna pay for the suspension. coils from the start is the best way to go about that
