I installed a Corsa double H-pipe on 10/13 and on 10/17 I got a message saying exhaust selection not available. Did a little searching around and come to find out that the wire harness for the passenger side exhaust actuator sits right below a pinch weld and the rubbing causes the wire to fray and therefore disable active exhaust.
Took the car to the dealership this morning and my service advisor was familiar with the issue, turns out it’s somewhat common with active exhaust cars, poorly engineered design. Get a call back from my advisor saying that the shop foreman is denying warranty because I have a modified exhaust. Even though this is an issue with cars that don’t have modified exhausts and the H-pipe has only been on the car for one week and around 200 miles. $508 bill and this is a $38 part.
I understand that yes I did modify the car, but a mid pipe being the cause for warranty work denial is ridiculous imho. I left a message with the service manager and hopefully we can work to get this resolved. It just makes me leery of what other repairs they will deny me because of a mid pipe.
