voiding my warranty?
I just picked up a used 07 gs 350 awd from a Toyota dealership and bought 100k 5 yr warranty along with it. are these different than actual Lexus warrantees? they said 100% covered for any problems minus brake pads. as long as I do oil changes regularly. I'm wondering what exactly voids this warranty? I read another post on F-sport parts and it struck my curiosity. I wanted to install a subwoofer. does that void anything? also if I get aftermarket suspension (I was thinkin tein coils w/ edfc), and aftermarket wheels. also, do they make F-sport coilovers for my car? sorry for the noob question, I'm comin from the Honda world and we don't give a crap about warrantees cuz hondas are like legos. thanks in advance

it will only void your warranty if they can prove whatever you installed caused the problem. if you put a sub in and your engine locks up, they have to cover you. if you install a suspension and say a cv axle goes because your too low, then obviously you'll have to pay out of pocket for it.

Anyways, is this a Lexus extended warranty or some third-party warranty (or did I miss where this was answered earlier)?

When you buy a non lexus warranty that they call a lexus warranty because they're applying it to a lexus (and you aren't that smart).
Also many places sell cars are "Certified Pre-Owned" when all that they mean is that it's be certified with the safety (or just certified by the receptionist as being for sale) and it's pre-owned!

yeah I'd guess 3rd party. I have to check my papers I guess. yeah it sounded a little wierd that he said everything was 100% covered except brake pads. I guess I'll just have to wait till something brakes. he claimed that their warranty is much better than the standard Lexus warranty. lol thanks for the info guys.

Some States have a right of recision (sp?) on extended warranties, meaning you have x number of days to cancel it and get your money back. Might be worth considering if yours is one of those States, and if so, taking that money and buying the Lexus warranty (but the car has to be inside the 4yr/50,000 mile factory warranty to purchase the extended). It's up to you, of course.
