If you're worried about MPG, E85 isn't for you. You'll see from 15-25% less MPG. It costs less but that price usually doesn't make it cost efficient in most cases.

Better make certain the 2.0T hard parts are tested for E85. The V8 is, but I'm not certain about the 2.0T.

Doesn't work out here. Now for premium it does but I don't think the 4 banger requires premium and that's what I was referring to specifically.

Lots of great info here about the e85, my question relates to the car’s warranty if you choose to run e85, how is it affected or is it voided ?

If you tune the car, you can pretty much kiss the warranty on your engine (and most likely all powertrain) goodbye.

For example, back when they were warranting cars for 100,000 miles; most of GM's suspension longevity testing is upwards of 300,000 miles of service. |

If you actually understood what is going on under the hood of these cars then you would not be arguing with me. "change fuel sensor" and "fuel pump". There is no fuel sensor on the LT1 from the factory and there is more than one fuel pump. So nothing you are reciting from "you're guy" makes much sense. Again he is just covering his arse...No GM engineer is going to say "hey go ahead and mod the piss out of your new car and void the warranty". Lol
