Hi everyone,
I've now had the ECU tested by a bosch fuel injection specialist, apparantly its shafted and will need replacment.
My question is; Would a second hand ECU work in my car? Bearing in mind my ECU has an Alpina sticker on it and an Alpina Cam. would a standard ECU cause problems? Am I better off buying from the dealer and having them map it to my engine?
The second hand one is about £150, the Dealer wants £230 + 1 hr labour (£90).
I'm only doing this to get rid of the car! Anyone wanna buy a 325i which needs an ECU?
