I highly doubt an approximated 15hp/tq and 2psi boost increase would do severe damage to the clutch parts. Just take your car to the dealer as is. Leave the tune on i bet they won't even say anything and if they do just admit that you have a simple ECU reflash. Most of the time when your honest their willing to work with you.

 

I agree! Stay away from Stevens Creek when it comes to service. just go for parts. Those guys **** me off over a year ago and I am still pissed at them.

 

Nope they wont.

Come on brembos, and wheels = broken crankshaft pulley? I don't think so.

 

I think OP mentioned on Instagram that his warranty was denied due to modifications yesterday. I'm looking at the picture of the description he posted.

 

They pissed me off 10 years ago. It's impressive that they still haven't changed after all these years.

 

Those guys broke my car when i simply came in for warranty work, then charged me for it. I would never go back to them. I would only go to them for parts and thats it.

 

lol this guy... yea i do my own oil changes and stage 1 and miraculously my clutch has a problem

 

this mother****er must work at a dealership -_-

 

lol, i don't use instagram,

Also, Thanks for the input guys, if the issue becomes serious, I'll take it into the dealership and cross my fingers

 

lol comment just made my day

 

lol sorry then there's another guy with the same problem you have from SF.

 

Its probably your clutch fork that's inside the tranny making that noise. I'm just trying to give you an idea, but I would go to any suby cert. Shop and let them check it out.

 

I've been gone for months, and the new guy comments on my post. thank you!

 

Take it to Carlsen Subaru, PROcede can personally tell you that they are easy going with mods, the only thing they note down is car is highly modified but will continue to do warranty work on it. I know that the 2011 WRX's have a lot of clutch issues and the warranty repair is to replace everything except the clutch disc (unless the clutch disc is messed up of course), but just like any other warranty issue they must be able to verify the problem. And yes I do work at Carlsen Subaru as a tech and I do look out for my fellow i-clubbers when they come through our dealer. The only thing is make sure you talk to Howard, our service manager, he's much more easy going than Joe Sui (supervisor).

 

With this being said I can personally vouche for Carlsen doing great work and still doing warranty work on my car for non-related engine issues. They've always been really helpful and fit me in for services when I was in a pinch. They are one of the better dealerships that are up to date on some issues of the 2011+ WRX/STi and take care of them without any fuss. Kevin and Howard are great people and of the many dealerships they have provided the best customer service to my car and I.

Also just to put this out there, even with a fellow i clubber working there don't expect special treatment or anything. I go in there knowing I could be denied work on anything and I don't expect riceboi907 to try and put himself out there for me. It's just a nice thought knowing someone from the community is watching and would let me know if they were joy riding my car. If he looks out for me on anything else that's just a plus and him being a nice guy.
