8574750 / 0281019961 – BMW F10 / F11 engine ECU
Original BMW DDE 8574750 engine control unit with Bosch number 0281019961 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).
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.
