dont know if this in in the right section plz move it if it isnt sorry

just had my car into vxl as it has been running rough for a few months and this is what I got on the printout

alarm
remote key not syncronised & anti-theft warning system datalink no comms code b2955(garage have never seen that code)

engine ecu
road tested to identify fault,rechecked for fault codes,only one code stored p1600 for replace ecu-requires new ecu £587.65 fitted


oil leak from sump
both front drop links worn
nail in o/s rear
lip on both front discs

so had a really good day ......lol

questions
1. so whats wrong with my alarm?
2. is there any other options for a new ecu(other than vxl)?or what is wrong with it I have read there is a fuse to check am I right?
3. oil leak from sump how much is it for a gasket?

think thats it for now thanks guys!

A quick google found the following:

B2955 = Security System Sensor Data Circuit Malfunction

www.obd-codes.com/trouble_codes/gm/gm-b-body-obd-c...p

Other google hits said pretty much the same thing.
