I took my '07 FA5 to the dealer and I carefully explained the "Over Rev" and "Cold Stumble" problems to the Service Writer. He shook his head up and made noises like he understood what I was talking about. His eyes brightened when I showed him a copy of the service bulletin for the '06 Si's explaining the reflash authorization for the '06 models and I felt confident that the problem would be addressed.

I left the car for three hours and returned expecting to have the ECU reprogrammed. When I returned the Service Weasel said that Honda does not "have a campaign" for the '07 Si and so they did not reprogram my ECU. Sh*t! I still have the problem.

So my next step is to beg Honda America to post a service bulletin for the '07 Si's. If your '07 Si has the same type of Cold Stumble and Over Rev that the
'06 Si had, please contact American Honda and tell them to get their act together.
