i went to dealer, and played stupid... "car just won't start, dunno what happened, started fine this morning, didn't start when i tried to leave work and go to lunch".

dealer gave me a few days of "you must have done something, did you or anyone try to tune it?" They were looking for any excuse to deny coverage but i persisted with ignorance, ultimately dealer could not prove that it was something i did as they couldn't read the ecu at all, so they had to replace it.

when i got the ecu back, they had revised my cal id based on a factory tune revision. plugged in my OFT, read the new OEM tune, then flashed my modified OTS tune, and was good to go.

No issues with having to unmarry / remarry in my case.
