BMW engine ECU 8570438 – description
On this page you can buy ECU 8570438 with Bosch number 0281019128, an original DDE for BMW cars with the 2.0 Diesel engine. It is a used unit, never repaired and never contaminated with diesel. We open every unit for inspection, fit it to a test car and check it in operation. The warranty is 6 months.
Preparing for fitting
Like any used ECU, 8570438 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.
Services for an extra charge
Before dispatch we can carry out EGR OFF and Flaps OFF (swirl flap removal), and on cars that have these systems also DPF OFF and AdBlue OFF. Keep in mind that not every model has AdBlue.
Diesel in the ECU – the most common fault
- Cause: a leaking fuel pressure sensor – diesel travels through the wiring to the ECU connector and destroys the electronics.
- We repair ECUs contaminated with diesel, with no communication and those that cut out when the engine is warm.
- After repair, the ECU needs no programming.
- Replace the leaking sensor before refitting, or the fault will return.
