Just one other argument against the concept that the ecu won't log if the car is in neutral...ask them how the ecu knows what gear the car is in (or is not in)? What sensor tells the ecu the gear the tranny is in or if it is in neutral?
Arguing with this guy was like dating a sorority girl. By the time you get anywhere with him, he's so out of it that he doesn't even realize what's going on.

It just seems weird to me that nobody at AHM or either of the dealerships would know that the ECU wouldn't log overrevs, and then AHM would chalk the whole thing up to a faulty retainer and agree to pay for the engine if the only possible explanation was that it was overreved.
That is good news for you .. right?

If I was in your situation and someone was telling me: "Blah bollocks blah, yada, yada, blah, blah blah, bollocks.. and I will pay for it" I would say: "You are absolutely right Sir, put it in writing and we are done"

I have no idea what happened to your account, but yes. I actually wore a tophat and monacle to make the deal official, so your post is an exact representation of the day's events.

More cluelessness. On the S2000 you tighten the bolt to rotate the engine from tdc to tdc.
Not to mention the way the engine turns tightens the bolt down even more.
