LMAO, where did you hear this??? There are laws that state that aftermarket parts cant void factory warranties unless the problem can be 100% directed at the aftermarket parts. Try a new dealership, if that doesnt work get a lawyer and you may end up rich!

RE: voids 07 warranty
Welcome to the forum.
Here's a good reference:
http://www.sema.org/main/semaorghome.aspx?ID=50096
with the cogent verbage:
The Law
Federal law sets forth requirements for warranties and contains a number of provisions to prevent vehicle manufacturers, dealers and others from unjustly denying warranty coverage. With regard to aftermarket parts, the spirit of the law is that warranty coverage cannot be denied simply because such parts are present on the vehicle, or have been used (see Attachment A).The warranty coverage can be denied only if the aftermarket part caused the malfunction or damage for which warranty coverage is sought. Disputes in this area usually boil down to arguments over facts and technical opinions, rather than arguments over interpretations of the law.

RE: voids 07 warranty
maries,
First, there are companies that make dry filters, AEM and Outlaw to name a few.
Secondly, this discusion has been had several times on the forum. Search through and you will find the info. Also, oiled filters are not an issue with the MAFS unless the filter is over oiled. So in your case, dont oil your own filter and you will be ok!
