Wow that's odd. I had aftermarket HFC, and my dealer knew it was installed before. Then I went back to stock, but still had aftermarket exhaust. They didn't complain about anything and still did the warranty work.

There's really not much you can do now aside from pay out of pocket for the repair. I don't know if you'd have any better luck at a different dealer or not.

That is some shaddy shiet.
How does a HFC hurt a slave cylinder? The explanation they gave you sounds illogical. At least to me it does. How does the heal damage it? |

Bottom line is if they deny warranty claim it ends up costing you a ton of money to try and fight it. This is why, for example, if you ever have intakes and have an engine problem, you should throw the stock intakes back on before taking the car in.

And I got a few address of Nissan North America. They also have a Discussion Board in thier page on FB, last tab at the top. They don't want bad publicity.
Also write their customer service at: customersupport@nissan-usa.com And the Magnuson–Moss Warranty Act, they have to proof that the Berk caused the slave cylinder failure.
