lol says right in the manual to swap to a high temp fluid for track days from GM! 595º plus in my manual. the GM stuff wont cut it. and no, you cant void a warranty! you can only get claims denied. if you have a brake failure and the dealer says its your fault, im sure showing GM what you used, how, and when, they will approve the claim and make the dealer do the work. im not sure what will fail, mostly it'll be caliper piston seals that melt but thats on you and wont be under warranty anyways.

never heard of it but makes no sense. if i tune the motor my radio cant be denied as a claim. HP does nothing to speakers or the infotainment.

I'm a big fan of the Motive Power Bleeder as another option

No, it doesn't. DOT 3, DOT 4 and DOT 5.1 are all chemically compatible. I bled my Hope brakes with my left-over RBF 660.

What I meant is the dealership can (incorrectly) say "there is no reason for you to go aftermarket, because your factory fill is DOT4 already, we will not honor the warranty if you do so".

Have you talked with a different dealer? ...because thats a huge load of bs. Using a different analogy.... if you don't change your motor oil with Mobil 1 and use an ac delco filter, that means your engine warranty will be voided as well..... according to this dealer?

You didn't even mention brake pads and other things, but I use Carbotech 1521 (low dust) on street and switch to Carbotech XP8/XP10 combo for the track. Also, brake cooling rings only apply to Z51; GS/Z06 don't use them. Thump UP to Amazon Price Match

Also a quick update for everyone reading, The dealer called me back 2 days later and the Service manager had their "Warranty Manager" on the phone with me and apologize for the mishap and said they can do the procedure but I told them too late you already pissed me off so I'll do it myself. They explain the staff should've been knowledgeable but I'm like its not rocket science. I just completed it recently and it wasn't as bad as I thought. It just took 2 hours of my time. I decided to choose a different fluid this time around as well and I am using BREMBO HTC64 now since it came in on time. The Pedal is stiff how I like it & Clutch feels good too. I should be well equipped now for the upcoming track day. So far the things I've done: Track Alignment Changed Engine Oil Changed Brake Fluid Changed Rear Diff Fluid Pending Item: Transmission Fluid Change. I dont think I will do this yet since the gears feel fine so far when I am rowing them.

My neighbor is a tech and I can get his laptop & the details on what to do to replace the fluid. However there is plenty of Youtube video of people showing how to do it too when it comes to trans fluid.
