Hi guys,

My ECU died and had a replacement with IMMO Off from goingslow.co.uk.

Have had tons of issues with the replacement, car drives fine, especially with the stage one map.

But getting constain warning lights, had an Auto electrician come out to me twice now, first to condemned the ECU and second to look at all the errors I am now getting. Glow plug light flashing, Engine light on, DPF also reporting issues.

All of which has been checked and there isn't any issues, Full DPF was done about 11 months ago, but have been told it's fine.

Is this down to the fact I've had a IMMO OFF ECU, IMMO data was moved over, to avoid warning light.

Of is this down to the fact the ECU is trashed ?

Was told

" Defective ECU. Incorrectly coded fault down to no chassis number programmed to ECU & EEPROM error either corrupt map file or internal PCB fault. Recommend replacement ECU coded correctly with chassis number."
