I cannot thank you enough for this post. While my 15+ years in the business have been on the sales side of things, I am or have been members of several car forums over the years, and every time someone brings up the Magnuson-Moss Act, followed by a "they gotta prove it bro" type remark, I want to scream.
While there's no fixing ignorance or stupidity, hopefully your clear, concise and very straight forward answers will put some people at ease, and shut some other ones up.
I'll also add that my VW dealer pushed for an intake cam replacement for me, after the fuel pump had been replaced under warranty. My car (at that time) was APR Stg 2+. They knew it was tuned, VW knew it was tuned. VW warrantied the cam. A good relationship and attitude with the dealer goes a very long way.
