adding springs don't void the warranty. it'll only be a problem if they find out the springs are the cause of whatever the problem is. only if that occurs will the warranty be voided for that particular repair.

But the law as far as in California is that the dealership has to prove that the item that you install is the cause of the problem.
One dealer on the RX-8 forum tried to say a K&N Air filter was the reason the owner's car had a power window failure. They tried to tell them that it caused some sort of mechanical failure. Funny guys.

TECHNICALLY, It will 'void" said warranty of the part. Because you technically installed a non-genuine Lexus Part. If the aftermarket part is the cause of the failure for whatever reason. Your warranty is voided for that particular area.
