The US ECUs are different to the ones in Euro model cars so if you use them make sure they give you the correct model. Malcolm do you have details of these companies?

Phil, what exactly is the fault?

Thanks Malcolm.

I wonder how long they've been doing them? I know Mercedes were the only ones who would exchange the units - but that was when they had a share in Temic who made them - now sold out to Continental I believe?

This firm does every ECU modual down to duo valves for all our cars, the USA forums rate the firm highly. One day I would like to test out one of these moduals, its only full of transistors, they can be tested cold.
