Unless you sucked something into the engine (like water) then its doubtful they can blame the intake. Water is provable... since it doesn't mix with oil and would still be in the engine. But other than that, I can't think of any other problem the intake can cause, unless it's somehow broken and a piece of it went in.

Unless they can prove that your intake is the direct cause of the prob they have to fix it.

Unless your dealer can prove to you that your aftermarkets did in fact caused the damage. You have your rights to argue with them that your intake has nothing to do with the rod being damaged.
