Anyone help with advice on a ecu problem on a mates car (oct vrs 54 plate). Hesitates badly when reaches 3000rpm, he has taken the car into a local garage and they have told him that they suspect a ecu problem(low voltage on one side ) what ever that means. Due to the cost of replacing the ecu is it possible to by a reconditioned unit or is it better to by new and are there diffrent types for this make and model. My car is in the same garage on Monday for a wheel bearing replacement so they said that they are going to test the voltage on mine as a comparision test to confirm a ecu problem on his.

Yes there are different types and it also needs to match the immobiliser.

We can supply and code second hand units or supply one for test with the immobiliser disabled. We have a few suitable ones in stock.

I would not be swapping an ECU unless you had a second opinion. Its mostly likely to be something like blocked fuel filter or failing MAF etc.

Where are you based?

Based in South Wales, the garage were not going to swap the ecu just check the voltage coming out of mine to compare with the voltage coming out of my mates ecu. (i hope)
