Hello Everyone,

Wondering if fitting the Milltek exhaust (Particulate filter back) system will Void the manufacturer warranty? Anybody has first hand knowledge or experience of this?

I would first check with Milltek as they likely have lots of feedback and experience if this would void a warranty or not, however do keep in mind that they have a vested interest in selling you one. Once you get feedback from them, that may or may not clarify the warranty issue. Worst case, you could always install one and save the original and switch it out before your next service or wait until you are past your warranty. It will then sound like its aging well. They do sound great from the Milltek videos I have seen for different vehicles including the new Defender.

Why would an aftermarket exhaust after the cat affect the warranty? its an exhaust system - will change the sound and maybe let the engine breathe a bit better, but it has no impact on the vehicle’s systems.

Exactly, however some dealers are funny and look for an excuse, will ask the dealer here to make sure in any case.

Not in the United States. Other jurisdictions may vary.
