Well i took my car in to the infintit dealership because my a/c wasnt working. so i just got a call back saying that it was my Injen CAI was rubbing against some line and caused a "pin"hole or a "hole" in the line so all my freeon i think the cold stuff is leaking out. and since they say MY CAI caused it. its not going to be udner warrenty and they want to charge me $700 is this true can this happen and is there anyone out there that can fix it cheaper ?

 

Damn

They might be right, when I was installing my Injen, it was awfully close to the A/C line. And it actually DID rub for a while.

Try taking it off, putting the stock airbox on and go to another dealer.

Oh man ... that really sux. I'd follow Gurgen's advice and hope the 1st dealer did not enter the information regarding the Injen intake into the computer.

Worse come to worse, find a place that patches aluminum lines cheaply. 700 bux is insane!

what will happen if they did enter it in there computer and i go to another dealership will i get into deep trouble ??

 

Since all dealer service recorders are on the same network ... they'd see the root cause by the Injen intake and could also refuse work under warranty.

so then there is no way i can do that then right ?? cause they will catch me ?

 

Not neccessary. The worse they can possibly do is 'refuse' work for FREE. I would still pursue it after you replace your OEM intake. Even if you're 'caught' again, be curtious and reasonable with the service rep ... you may be able to sweet talk out of it.

this might sound dumb but did you call the radiator shops ?
they should be able to repair the hole (weld/patch) for a lot less

 

Yeah I was thinking the same thing. That thing can be cold welded instead of being replaced it should hold up pretty well after that. Are you in Socal? I might be able to refer you to my friend regarding that line if you wanted it replaced instead. Let me know.
