On the other hand, if your engine blows up, you might be out of luck since its directly connected to your kleemann kompressor and they can prove that additional stress caused it to break.

Yeah i know you guys really got lucky with that one and it keeps you protected from a lot of things, you also have much better lemon laws than us.

In the UK any excuse to get out of warranty is used without shame by 90% of the dealers

Say you replace a speaker on your TV then the Panel breaks you have not done a thing to it but once the case has been opened the warranty is gone same on the cars in the UK since we have less stringent laws regarding customer protection

Ahh okay, Brabus Parts are available through the dealer here so, no probs for installation.
