Application
This ECU is used in the BMW X5 E70 / X6 E71 (M57 engine). Compatibility is decided by the number on your ECU label – 7810980 / 0281015241 – not just by the model and year.
Repair instead of purchase
- We repair BMW 3.0 Diesel ECUs contaminated with diesel, with no communication or cutting out when the engine is warm.
- After repair the ECU needs no programming – your car’s data stays stored in it.
- Before sending, contact us and give the symptoms and DDE fault codes.
How to get the ECU working in your BMW
- Option 1: programming the ECU in the car.
- Option 2: cloning the data from your old ECU (immobiliser, ISN, VIN) – included in the price.
- For cloning, send us your old unit and we transfer the data to the ECU you bought.
In-car programming can be done with ISTA+ / ISTA 4, ISTA/P or E-Sys.
Extra modifications
For an extra charge we carry out swirl flap removal (Flaps OFF) and EGR OFF. We do DPF OFF and AdBlue OFF only when the car has these systems – AdBlue is fitted to some models only.
