Hi Everyone, my ECU needs to be replaced, £700 dealer has quoted but I have found that I can buy one for £200 fully coded and ready to plug in and go with un-limited mileage warranty. But I need to know where the ECU is actually situated in my car so that I can take it out and get the part number. Can anyone help? And is it really as easy as take old one out and new one in?!

have manage to fine the ECU, it is located under the battery cover and housed next to the battery and it is as easy as it sounds to remove and replace :)

Please can you tell me where you found the part number for the ECU and also where you purchased the new ECU from? Was it as easy as plugging the new one in once you have the right part number or did you have to mess about with any coding?

Thanks very much.
