    I was wondering if my extended drivetrain warrenty covers my front diff.?
    I have a vibe from the needle bearing being bad. and need it fixed, bc the vibe and noise is annoying! lol..
    Thanks!

    Having done what you've done with the lift and diff drop, I wouldn't get your hopes up.

    Nah, worst they can say is no.

    Under normal circumstances, the diff is covered under powertrain warranty, yes.

    My dealership told me, and I'm quoting this: "The 100k warranty is so good that if you decide to pull an OJ and can't get the blood out, bring it to us. If we can't get the blood out, we'll replace it." Thus, I have determined that the warranty will cover everything except for a zombie apocalypse.

    Do you think I should put the diff drop back in, so they cant say that thats why the vibe has happened?

    That's what the guy selling the warranty says. Try asking the service writer about what the extended warranty covers and what will void it.

    Too true. Somehow, my Scion managed to get warranty work done after all the mods I did to it. My old Jeep had no such thing as a warranty. Ever.

    My warranty book states If any modifications done to the Vehicle other than those by Toyota, the warranty will not be honored.

    To the OP......if you can change your setup back to stock with little butt pain, it would be well worth your time before heading to the dealer.

    I may put it back to stock. but then the noise will go away. so I will try my luck, and see what happens.
