Also - ECU setup / software is different for USA / JP / EU markets.. All of them have different setups.

Lol yeah, but to their defense they don't have any details coming down from above. The GT 86 was sold here 3 months after the US, and in smaller quantities, so with ~5% of cars affected (1 in 20) I'm the first guy with the problems that they are seeing. It took them 3 weeks to get an actual response from their contacts at HQ that was not the generic response for P0019 codes. Add to that the fact that most french owners may not speak English and won't find this thread while searching the web. It is only because of this thread that I was able to argue with them about the real problem (thanks to eurospeed and the other guys!)
Also, when you say Europe, do you mean that it will be the same re-flash for all countries, or that is still has to trickle down to all the branches in each country, and pass the local certifications ? It would be surprising if the actual ECU hardware was different for each and every country in Europe, it would be a logistic nightmare to have that many SKUs for basically the same parts...
PS. This reminds me that I should add some keywords for french speaking people to find this thread
