Repair of your ECU
The most common cause of BMW 2.0 Diesel ECU failure is diesel: it leaks from a faulty fuel pressure sensor and travels through the wiring to the ECU connector, destroying the electronics. We repair ECUs contaminated with diesel, with no communication and those that cut out once the engine is warm. A repaired ECU needs no programming. Replace the leaking sensor before refitting, or the problem will return. Read more in our articles BMW ECU contaminated with diesel and BMW N47 / B47 ECU faults.
Choose by number
This number was fitted to BMW cars with the 2.0 Diesel engine. Choose the ECU by the numbers on the label: BMW number 8576360 and Bosch number 0281030260 must match your unit. If in doubt, send us your VIN.
Preparing for fitting
Like any used ECU, 8576360 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.
