I assume you have an automatic??? The key getting stuck is the solenoid on the shifter assembly on the floor....they should warranty it. There i actually a release button on the bottom of the steering column to release the key.

one item that voids the warrenty does not void the entire warrenty, it only voids it for that part. They're not going to deny your leaky sunroof button because you have an airbox mod lol, it doesnt work like that. Unless there is someway your airbox mod made your sunroof botton leak (lol) then no, they wont care.

an airbox mod, has nothing to do with a leaking sunroof or the key. they will cover it. I know we do. It will still be under warrenty. I know at work the only thing we havent touhed was a Z28 that was, cammed, tuned, motorswapped, headers, etc. They had a rough idle an we all refused to work on it. So i think your alrgiht then man! good luck

The air box has noting to do with the problems you are having so it will not be a problem. I had stuff fixed on mine and I had way more mods.

im not sure why you would go back to the dealer with all that stuff in your car... like realistically its less stock than modded you know more about your car at that point then the dealer does

yea, kinda had us puzzeled too, they had another problem then wanted us to fix that. It was kinda obvious that the problem was, no o2 sensor, along with horrible hirrible timing issues. but, somethings are best left alone.

you should have no probelm with that. if they give you any flak for it, ask them how the airbox mod made your key get stuck and sunroof button leak. if they give you some bs reason, just argue till they fix it.

it will depends on the stealership. just before i bought it, my car had a wheel hub replaced under warrenty, despite the fact its lowered, 2.85" pulley, cobra heat exchanger, 3" exaust with electric cutout, and traction bars. basicly comes down to the dealerships standing with the warrenty reps.

Your airbox has absolutely nothing to do with the problems you are having.
