New thought. Link them to this thread. Also let us all know what dealership you're working with so they lose business. I'm sure they'll perk right up and fix your clutch once future business is on the line. Unless they can provide you with evidence that you actually did damage such as an overrev code, they're SOL.I just talked to the dealership that currently has my car (no work has been done at this dealership) and one of the mechanics said that you can compare the engine speed and the speed of the clutch output to see if there was slippage but they don't want to do any investigating until I pay since Honda labeled my car that they are not going to pay for anything with my car. They had a rep from Honda look at it and he agreed with the dealership with the high rev signals. I talked to the dealership it is at right now and the mechanic said that those signals only show up if the RPM goes above 10,000. I know for a fact that this did not happen. I don't know how to fight this anymore guys. It seems like that one reading that is not even true is making everyone say it's abuse and voiding my warranty. I asked the mechanic if a mechanic outside of Honda was able to look at the high rev signals and he said that mechanics outside of Honda don't have access to them. He also said that he could look at it IF the other dealership didn't delete it (at a price). How is a dealership allowed to delete evidence like that? That makes no sense.
Inertia my friend. The power is already there, no electronics are going to stop an object in motion without an equal and opposite reaction. The only thing that could cause that opposite resistance is the engine braking, your actual brakes, or you slamming into something. So if you downshift at high speeds to a gear that can't handle it. Bye bye car.I would assume they have a rev limiter in place. Looking around on forums it seems to be 7-8k. Wouldn’t the high 10k rev mean their electronics failed? Anyway, just a thought.
