• Ford Escort (1993 - 2000) - 1995 1.4 PTE SEFI erratic misfire when warm 10 Aug 2008 (Forum)
  . Various mechanics have looked at it, changed the plugs and leads etc, checked electrics, all to no avail. It is now suggested that the ECU may be at fault and should be replaced, if this is done will the new unit require reprogramming to the car by a dealer, I am told that the coil unit will have
• Peugeot 306 (1993 - 2001) - 1998 1.4 Speedometer and rev counter at maximum 19 Jun 2008 (Forum)
  to maximum (with the engine off) I just tried driving the car to see if that would reset things but noticed that the trip meter was advancing at a very high rate and, after about 2 miles noticed that about 25000 miles has been added to my odometer reading. I'm suspected that the ECU has ""glitched", so
• Peugeot 405 Petrol (1988 - 1996) - Problem with crank position sensor 10 Aug 2007 (Forum)
  but they are supposed to be around 4 - 8 volts according to autodata. My ecu isnt getting any information at all to say that the engine is cranking and therefore will not fire. I have checked the ecu and all is in order through out the input circuits and also the loom is consistent with only a 0.6 ohm resistance start
• XUD Turbo - lack of grunt 13 Jan 2007 (Forum)
  I carefully eliminated the fuel filter, air filter, intercooler trunking for leaks and general wiring etc,. etc. I recently acquired a Xantia 1997/Rreg XUD Turbo estate - ECU/Bosch equipped. Shortly afterwards a lack of urge had become apparent after washing the engine. After various discussions
• TDCi judder around 2200-2700rpm 17 Aug 2006 (Forum)
  it when the cruise control is engaged, but not as badly. This is probably due to the ECU counteracting the loss in power by adding more fuel and 'smoothing out' the problem. It's done nearly 70k miles and has recently had a new turbo fitted (old one went blew a seal and dumped oil out of the exhaust
• Vw Golf Immobliser (mk 3) 8 Apr 2006 (Forum)
  sec then dies. Also it has blanked out the fuel gauge, clock and mileage on two different instrument clusters. Can I default something in the engine ECU, as thats all I've got, to get me going? A scan does not pick up any other modules, eg Instruments or immobiliser. There must be either A pin I can
• VX Vectra Rev counter input? 30 Jan 2006 (Forum)
  . The fault codes stored in the ECU as far as I can tell relate to an issue I had about 3 years ago, if I can find the Radio code I will clear the ECU to make sure. Any help appreciated.
• Ford EECV PCM 14 Oct 2003 (Forum)
  Hi, I have a 1.25 fiesta which I believe has a EECV PCM at its heart. What I would like to acquire is a pin-out diagram for the ECU, as I have suspicions about my Lambda sensor, and want to try and establish if it is sending voltages to the ECU which are within the expected range - I have a lap
• Renault 19 1.4 Energy Engine change 6 Jun 2003 (Forum)
  still dont know if he took the ECU and associated bits out of the other car so it may be a non-starter anyway. Im also slightly worried that the M reg car had a cat and therefore a whole host of associated sensors talking to the ECU :S Also, I guess the injection version of the engine is not much
• VW Passat Lurching!!!!! 23 Feb 2003 (Forum)
  but only when the throttle is constantly open and after a while? Does this sound like an Airflow Meter problem to anyone out there? IF so, and I replace it, does the Haynes Book of Lies get it right when they say you have to get the dealer to reset the ecu or will the ecu set itself by it's learning
• Xantia ABS. 6 Aug 2001 (Forum)
  main agents tell me the car will have to go to them for the ECU fault memory to be cleared as I haven't the kit to do this. For various reasons I can't get the car back to them for ten days so am left wondering if they are really right. I know I should know the answer to the above but I don't. Have

• Ford Focus III (2008 - ) - Zetec - Can dealer add cruise control? 8 Apr 2009 (Forum)
  Dealer near me has some decent deal on Focus 1.6 Zetec's which I may be interested in. I really need cruise control though so the question is, can these have cruise added by the dealer vie a new steering wheel/ and ECU update or not?
• FIAT 500 (2007 - ) - eco:Drive 28 Oct 2008 (Forum)
  Over the weekend I noticed that Fiat are beta testing something called eco:Drive with the Fiat 500. Apparently on some models you can plug a USB stick into the car and the ECU will record data to it. You then transfer the stick to your PC and an application will analyse the data and highlight any

• Vectra trouble codes 4 Aug 2006 (Forum)
  My X25XE-engined Vectra often exhibits ecu trouble very briefly, without running problems, but I am unable to make sense of the codes which are usually "10-1-10-10" or "10-3-3-5". These do not comply with the format indicated in the Haynes fault codes manual or the "OBD-II" universal codes. Where
• Slow A4 wipers 1 Apr 2006 (Forum)
  I have a 99 V reg A4 Audi, and over the past few months the wipers have started to get slower and slower. This happens at both normal, fast and intermitent settings. I wondered if there was a bad earth on the wiper motor, but the motor is tucked away behind the ECU box and the servo, so I gave up
• Mondeo Mk3 Engine Cutting out 8 Aug 2005 (Forum)
  I had to disconnect the battery while I changed a panel bulb in the dashboard. Now everything has gone back together fine and working fine .... but when I slow down (to make a turn for example) the engine is cutting out. Has disconnecting the battery for 24 hours upset the ECU or something? Any
