I'm planning on installing suspension soon (finally) and i'm trying to avoid problems with my 3rd party extended warranty as much as possible. I'm not sure if any of you guys have heard of it..but i believe its called JM&A (apparently its really big in florida?). I hear that renntech springs are black and it would be really hard to differentiate them from OEM springs. BUT I already have full brabus suspension in my garage that i purchased used recently. What should I do???

you pretty much answered your own question.

the brabus suspension is not going to affect your warranty.

Renntech springs are just Euro-spec AMG springs, right?

AMG BRED

negative on that.

Spray paint your suspension black.. LOL.. I have a full brabus suspension and one dealer wouldn't fix my front bushings and blamed it on the suspension, the other dealer fixed the bushings under warranty with the Brabus suspension.. It's all in the dealer and what they report.. etc..

i asked my dealer about the CLK and doing the full Brabus package, he said he actually recommends Brabus over other tuners for the fact that they work closely with MB and it doesn't void their warranty.

any suspension change voids the warranty. some dealers are more mod friendly which if they sell Brabus, Carlsson, Lorinser parts etc. They usually would not care if you use something that their own dealer sells.

Brabus only carry over the warranty on the parts that they installed at BRABUS certified facilities. i.e. if you have the suspension installed at Brabus they would warranty your suspension at Brabus. if you had the engine built by Brabus all engine component are under warranty by Brabus for the same period of time you have your original manufacturer warranty. say if you changed the engine at 20k miles and have 30k miles remaining on your original warranty, Brabus would carry over the remaining 30k miles warranty for your car.
