Original BMW DDE 8598806 engine control unit with Bosch number 0281034283 for BMW cars with the 2.0 Diesel engine. A used unit, never repaired and never contaminated with diesel. We open every ECU for an internal inspection, fit it to a test car and check how it works. Sold with a warranty (6 months).
Would you rather repair your ECU?
We also repair BMW 2.0 Diesel ECUs – contaminated with diesel, with no communication, and those that stop the engine once it is warm. The advantage of a repair is that a repaired ECU needs no programming. Diesel usually escapes from a leaking fuel pressure sensor and travels along the wiring to the ECU connector, so replace that sensor before refitting. We explain the details in our articles BMW ECU contaminated with diesel and BMW N47 / B47 ECU faults.
How to check compatibility
This ECU is used in BMW cars with the 2.0 Diesel engine. The safest way is to compare labels – number 8598806 and Bosch number 0281034283 must be the same as on your ECU. A different number means a different version. If in doubt, send us your VIN.
Preparing for fitting
Like any used ECU, 8598806 has to be matched to the car. The simplest way is cloning: you send us your old ECU and we transfer the immobiliser, ISN and VIN from it – included in the price. The other option is programming in the car.
