• VW/Skoda Tdi ECU's 29 Aug 2006 (Forum)
  I understand that VW supply an upgrade at some cost but can the original ECU be repaired 'at home' like some ECU's that have been mentioned on this site. Is the fault caused by failure of a component such as a chip or is it nothing more than a 'dry solder joint' I have successfully repaired dry joints on other ECU's but I am not sure if this known fault on the tdi is unrepairable Thanks Andrew

• ECU repairs - help! 4 Sep 2002 (Forum)
  I find myself in the sorry position of having purchased a "new" tuning kit for a Saab 9-5 (consists of new injectors & remapped ECU), and finding that the ECU has not only been fitted before but is faulty. The tuning kit is a genuine Saab item, retails at £825 but I bought it online for £225....no need to explain why! Whilst the injectors were in sealed packs, the ECU was in an open poly bag.

• Rover 100 ECUs 3 Nov 2004 (Forum)
  I've been told that Rover ECUs loose their settings when you disconnect the battery. Does anyone know if this is true and if so can the ECU learn its settings again, or do I need to have it re-programmed? (I need to disconnect the battery for safety reasons when I change the fuel filter)

• Toyota Corolla 1997- 2001 - ECU and learning 22 Jul 2013 (Forum)
  The ECU I have got? In the 2001 1.4 vvti E11 model. Because it may eliminate my rattling sound, which sounds like pinking, but suspect I am not getting enough fuel through at the time and the ECU might need to re-learn something?
• VW Golf Mk4 - ECU 24 Jan 2011 (Forum)
  My son has a Golf Mk 4 which may have ECU problems. Engine management light comes on, and the revs are cut down. Diagnostics didn't reveal anything, and it seems OK again now. If it is the ECU, is it feasible to get secondhand ones, as I understand they're expensive?

• Mazda 3 - How to check for ECU/ABC/ESP fault on Mazda 3 20 Jun 2012 (Forum)
  Hi all, My wife is after a Mazda 3 04/05 model, but I am a bit paranoid about the expensive ECU fault that is showing-up on these cars. I have heard that if the ECU is unplugged, there is no indication of the fault. Can anybody tell me where to look to make sure the ECU is plugged in and what to look for to check for this fault?

• Honda FRV - Honda FRV how to remove ECU ? 14 Mar 2020 (Forum)
  So now I need to remove the blower motor to test/ replace that however in order to get the blower down I need to get the ECU out the way. It looked to me like the ECU was held into its casing by two 10mm bolts right at the front so I have unscrewed them but the ECU still will not come out. It feels like theres something else at the back holding the ECU in place but no amount of wiggling will budge it.

• Audi A4 '03 2.0 FSI - Drowned ECU 5 Feb 2012 (Forum)
  The work to replace this was done at HiQ. My question is; does the ECU Housing Box have to be removed or touched to gain access to effect a wiper linkage replacement, meaning it could have been damaged by HiQ. Also, is the quote of £950 for a new ECU accurate? Many thanks Andy
• Citroen C5 - Anti pollution ecu location 16 Nov 2011 (Forum)
  Hi,  My 2001 2.2 hdi C5 is seriously down on power and  frequently (every other journey) brings up the anti-pollution message and kills what little power it has left, have been advised by a French car specialist to change the map and the maf sensor, which I shall do when funds allow, my main query is does anybody know where the anti pollution ecu lives? When the car was plugged in they couldn't access the AP ecu to do a forced regeneration or reset the eolys level as the ecu has died. I now need to find the ecu to get the part number off but have no idea where to start looking!

• Volkswagen Golf V / Mazda 3 - ECU repair - ABS/ESP module problem 12 Jun 2010 (Forum)
  Does anybody have experience of getting the existing ECU repaired to rectify the ABS/ESP module problem, as opposed to replacing the ECU?
