Block Exemption Rules

How will EconomyTuning affect my warranty? Simple answer is it shouldn't irrespective what the manufacturer might try to claim. This is covered by competition law (see below). The argument is any modification that you make to a vehicle will affect the warranty this would include, phone kits, trackers, body and wheel mods . However we are not modifying the vehicle but simply replacing one part with another which has exactly the same safety features to protect your engine as the original. In addition our files are written to meet the stringent German TUV standards, these standards are some of the toughest in the world. This is all done in the same way as you might change an exhaust which equally wouldn't affect your warranty.

European Block Exemption Rules cover warranty obligations of vehicle manufacturers in respect of replacement parts:

The BER introduces certain definitions of importance to the independent aftermarket. There is a new definition of 'original spare parts' and 'matching quality parts' that is based on the quality of the component. Vehicle warranties cannot be invalidated if these conditions are met:

Where parts used are of matching quality as the component used for the assembly of a motor vehicle. Spare parts of "matching quality" identifies parts in the following way: spare parts made by any undertaking which can certify at any moment that the parts in question match the quality of the components which are or were used for the assembly of the motor vehicles in question. Where parts used are of the same specifications and production standards as those used by the Vehicle Assemblers. (A remap file is read and written to the ecu in exactly the same way as it is done by the manufacturer. Its process is a simple read and write with checksum correction which can be reversed or replaced at any time without causing damage to the vehicle or OE components.) Where parts manufacturers/suppliers are able to issue a quality certificate. (Our file can be supplied with a valid TUV certificate we are the only UK company able to offer this level of quality.)

The BER also covers service and maintenance during the warranty period and prohibits vehicle manufacturers' warranties from including conditions requiring that all parts used must be the VA Vehicle Assemblers "original spare parts".
