Already sent a reply to them calling BS!!!(but was nice about it). Doubt they will print it, though. Even referred to Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act.

Here's what the Enthusiast Editor said about the SYN3 oil, and I quote: "SYN3 IS THE ONLY SYNTHETIC MOTOR OIL THAT DOES NOT IMPACT YOUR 24-MONTH, UNLIMITED-MILE FACTORY WARRANTY." unquote. This is not true under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act.You can email the editor at enthusiasteditor@pcspeed.com and ask him/her to retract this statement. I did.

I admit that I would have, hook line and sinker..... if it wasn't for this website. I'm so glad I don't have to deal with those people.
