Changing to cold air intake and issurance problem - Toyota Yaris Forums

WOW...you really take things to extremes.

if you're really concerned, why not get the toyota unit and have it installed by them. it's TRD, made by toyota and installed by toyota techs. so, they have no say in the matter if it was the cause of a problem or not. it's not a modification, you simply put on a toyota part number in place of another toyota part number.

the TRD kit has a water seperater in it or whatever that rubber/foam insert thingy is called. also, the chance of you hydro-locking without the car being submerged is astronomical, even in a typhoon/hurricane. you'd still have to get water above the headlights to hydrolock.

if you're that concerned about the insurance and them denying you coverage, switch insurance companies or stay away from any modifications to your car.
