It really depends on the dealer. I have heard that some have no problem with it, and others start accusing you of wanting to hop up the motor and voiding the warranty. I would just call and explain to them that you are concerned because this has happened more than once now and you want to do your best not to let it happen again.

Be prepared though, the studs are a lot more money than I thought they woudl be!
