Straight forward from title.

I have owned a 360 for just over a year and had it flahsed it then got the rrod and had to go, I was going to get a new one as you now get a 3 year warrenty but if I get it flashed will that void the warrenty?

Straight forward answer............ Yes
But you can remove warranty stickers intact and if it should go wrong always flash it back to original firmware

Cheers for that thought it would be worth buying a new one as they got this extended warrenty, I was offered one that had the x clamps removed and rubber washers and bolts put on saying it is 100% repaired and won't happen again but not sure really.

You can do as Danielle says and remove the warranty sticker. Do this by using a hairdryer to lightly heat and slowly peel it off and if you do it right, you will have a clean sticker to put back on after .
