Original ECU 8579785 (0281030878)

We sell a used, original DDE 8579785 unit (Bosch 0281030878) for the BMW 2.0 Diesel N47. Before dispatch we look inside it and then test it in a car. The unit has never been repaired and has never been in contact with diesel. The ECU comes with a warranty of 6 months.

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.

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.

Data cloning included

ECU 8579785 is used, so it will not work straight after plugging in. It has to be programmed in the car, or the data from your old ECU has to be transferred to it: immobiliser, ISN and VIN. We do the cloning at no extra cost – just send us your current unit.

BMW number and Bosch number

Both numbers on the label matter when you order:

  • BMW number: 8579785 / DDE8579785 / DDE8579785-01
  • Bosch number: 0281030878 / 0 281 030 878

Does this ECU fit your BMW?

This ECU is used in BMW cars with the 2.0 Diesel engine (N47 engine). The model and year alone are not enough. Compare the label: if it shows 8579785 and 0281030878, it is the same ECU. If in doubt, send us your VIN.

Common questions about ECU DDE8579785

Does 8579785 need programming?

Yes, like any used ECU. You can program it in the car or send us your old unit – we clone the data (immobiliser, ISN, VIN) at no extra cost.

Has 8579785 been repaired or contaminated with diesel?

No. This unit has never been repaired or contaminated with diesel – before sale we open it for inspection and test it in a car.

Which paid services do you offer for ECU 0281030878?

EGR OFF, Flaps OFF and, on cars with the relevant systems, also DPF OFF and AdBlue OFF.

Is it worth repairing my old ECU instead of buying another one?

We repair ECUs contaminated with diesel, with no communication and those that cut out when warm. The advantage is that a repaired ECU needs no programming. Replace the leaking fuel pressure sensor before refitting.
