Certainly there is no first gear "shift-early" advice or instruction in the owners manual. Even if the rev limiter kicks in and you then shift to a higher gear, the warranty for the transmission should not be denied.
How does the dealer know you have shifted in 1st gear over 5k RPM? Did you tell them or did they produce ecu logs over 'high rev' (>X?k RPM) shifts occurrences?

Yes, they produced ECU logs and determined from there that it was my fault the synchros were damaged =(
