Just spotted this on mini2, looks like someone has finally got the definitive answer from BMW about how modifications effect warranty cover.:D

It has been stated before - but it is worth knowing. It is however sometimes all too easy for them to blame something else.

I know a certain dealer has stated it but it's the first time that I've heard it come direct from MINI :D Its a bit of a relief that someone has it in writing especially after the LPG conversion.

Sorry should have reworded that - it has been stated on Mini2 direct from Mini previously

As an example this one (http://www.mini2.com/forum/showpost.php?p=907515&postcount=1) - this states that warrenty is ok but TLC would be voided. Myself and several other people have never had issue with TLC service either.

Oh, the thread sounded like it was a new development. Oops! :I

Not a problem - its good to keep bringing it to the front as a lot of people are "scared" to modify because they feel they will invalidate their warrenty, some dealers have even told people that this will be the case.
