Correct.... but they can FLAG your truck in Oasis as having had this or that... and it's part of the record for any future claims...

What I Should Have Said Is If You Have An Engine Failure And You Take It In With The After Market Air Filter They Will Not Fix Your Engine,or If They Ever See Your Air Filter,that Could Give Them Excuse To Deny Your Claims. That Is If Your Dealer Is Not Mod Frendly.

Can a mod/admin PLEASE post this in big, bold letters somewhere?

I wouldn't waste my money on an after-market filter. Time after time I've seen little or no HP/TQ gain on side-by-side dyno tests. Besides Fords got a Donoldson in there right now. Save the jing put in some after-market programming.
