You still haven't said anything about PackageCode. There are only two ways to get the maintenance dialog when you start installing what you think is your upgrade, and that's if either the ProductCode or the PackageCode are identical between old and new versions.
In all other cases that I can think of (UpgradeCode different, Upgrade spec wrong, failing to increment one of the first three product version values, different AllUsers values) you don't get a maint dialog you just end up with two products installed, and both will be in Add/Remove Programs.
