Stop driving it. Yank the head and from there you will know what to do. Time to upgrade retainers and whatnot. Its not the end of the world. You could even have the stealership do it for about a grand.

Take it to a reputable shop that deals with S2000's, they'll know what to look for and exactly what needs repairing. Dealership is more likely to lie to you and/or not know what they are doing. DO NOT drive the car anymore, don't even start it.

what happens when you over rev? go past the rev limiter? downshift to the wrong gear?
