2017 C63s Cabriolet 2013 CLS550 & 2009 Jk Wrangler- BOTH GONE
New in Houston
Hello all, new member from Houston. First time MB owner but have had a couple BMWs and Audis in the past. Just purchased a 2013 CLS550 4matic last night!!! New here but not car forums so I'm sure I can find this sifting through threads but will ECU tune void my warranty? Its a MB CPO warranty that I added an extra few years onto through them.
Thanks, and sorry for the newbie question.

Welcome to MBWorld and grats on the CLS pickup!
As for voiding warranty... this is tricky and will vary dealer to dealer. ECU is one of those components that's easy to blame as it controls so much of the vehicle internals so most everything can be traced back directly to the ECU. Some dealers are more mod friendly than others and won't just auto-blame the tune for any issues, while some will scream bloody murder at you if you do and they find out.
