  1. ECU swap *(silly Q #2)*

    I have a Seat Leon Sport TFSI (alledgedly 185PS). Would it be possible to swap the ECU - the whole unit - for an FR one (alledgedly 197PS)? Would it be obvious? Would I need a VAG-COM wotsit to do the swap? What would it cost?

  2. Changing An ECU

    If i wanted to change my ECU can i get a 2nd hand one from a mk2 Ibiza in a scrappy or do i have to buy a new one? Or can i get a re-con from somewhere? If so, where? Also, say i do get another ECU, it's not as simple as just plugging it in is it? I'd have to get it calibrated to work on my...

  4. STD ECU limits

    How much scope is there for maping on the std ecu? As in how far can you reliably modilfy your engine before the std ecu isn't 'clever' enough. What are the limits etc. Is everythign variable? Or are most functions fixed? :shrug: Cheers

    Oldskool APR Re-Mapped ECU Question...

    I have just got an old ECU off a friend which had been mapped by APR many years ago and when fitted to his car it had the cruise control / switchable map indicator stalk. However I've just fitted it to my car without the indicator stalk, coded it up and run the car. It starts and runs fine, but...

  12. ECU reset

    Does anyone know what is reset on the engine when you do the 'reset' procedure - open the bonnet and door, then switch the ignition (but don't start the engine). You hear a high pitched whine for 30 seconds. Reason I ask is that my car has been idling very rough, and yesterday it was hesitant...

  17. ECU Doctor

    Time to try & sort out my wonky 16v - idle is oddly random & fuel economy isn't to clever. Seems fine at full chat. Stealer said diagnostics list a fault with the inlet manifold pressure sensor - which I believe is built into the ECU on the 16v. :censored: Rather than buy a new ECU ££££! I was...
