Warwickshire quickly slipped to 89 for three in their run chase before Chanderpaul again frustrated Yorkshire with a century stand with captain Jim Troughton (62 not out).
Chanderpaul hit five fours and two sixes off 77 balls as he added an unbroken 125 for the fourth wicket, forcing the game towards a tame draw.
The 37-year-old Guyanese now has 360 runs from five innings at an average of 90.
