Default Keep Warranty or Get Gears

I cant decide. I want everyones views on whether or not i should get gears or should i keep my warranty. If i keep warranty i will purchase extended warranty. Does this car need a warranty or is it honda enough to not break? Thanks.

i would say it would have to depend on the extended warranty. if its through honda, it's only worth is for the transmission which you will be effectively voiding. i'd probably recommend getting the gears if you're mileage is greater than 36K miles.

If you do have a warranty issue, it is up to Honda to prove that the gears contributed to failure of that other part. Needless to say, the warranty on the gears and diff will be toast but not necessarily the rest of it.

that was about when i supercharged my car. don't even worry about the warranty. just get them and enjoy it.

if there is an issue deal with it then.
