Ian,
You are reluctant to address his words from the Mog article. But that is where this thread started. Can we return there?
"If you fit a non-genuine part that damages the vehicle- your warranty is voided." MOG magazine
versus
"The warranty does not apply to defects arising from the fitting of parts NOT made or approved by Company." older manual
They do not mean the same to me. Do they to you?
Dan
I've never argued that the warranty wording & the magazine article are the same, merely that the two versions of the warranty are the same. I won't comment on the magazine article, 'cause I haven't read it, but the pieces of text quoted here would suggest that that Mr Whitworth is going beyond the warranty as stated in the handbook.
Again I say
"Given the choice, I'd put my money on the warranty statement in the handbook rather than a magazine article"
