Mercedes Engine ECU ENGINE CONTROLLER 3.0 CDI A6421531079 / 0281013394 Bosch CR4.30 – VIRGIN version

The offered ECU ENGINE CONTROLLER Bosch CR4.30 with part numbers A6421531079 and 0281013394 is designed for Mercedes vehicles equipped with the 3.0 CDI (OM642) engine. The module is supplied in VIRGIN version, meaning a complete data reset and readiness for first-time programming in the vehicle.

Application – models and years

The controller is used in Mercedes vehicles with the 3.0 CDI OM642 engine, including:

  • Mercedes E-Class (W211, W212)
  • Mercedes C-Class (W204)
  • Mercedes S-Class (W221)
  • Mercedes ML / GL (W164, X164)
  • Mercedes Sprinter / Viano / Vito 3.0 CDI

Production years: approximately 2006–2013 (depending on model and market).

VIRGIN version – programming

The VIRGIN controller requires programming after installation in the vehicle. Adaptation is carried out using the Mercedes Star Diagnosis / Xentry diagnostic tool. During the procedure, the controller learns vehicle data (VIN, immobiliser, configuration).

Alternative option: it is possible to prepare the controller using the CLONE method – based on data from the customer’s original controller (EEPROM / FLASH).

Key information

  • Original Bosch CR4.30 engine controller
  • Condition: used, technically tested
  • Version: VIRGIN – requires programming
  • Application: Mercedes 3.0 CDI OM642

      Audi Q7 3.0 TDI Water Damaged Engine ECU| 4L1910401D & 4L0910401G IMMO OFF Plug & Play

      Audi Q7 3.0 TDI won’t start after heavy rain? The engine ECU could be water damaged

      One of the most common failures in the Audi Q7 3.0 TDI is water damage affecting the Bosch EDC17CP04 engine ECU. This issue frequently impacts units 0281015868 and 0281014174, which are mounted beneath the windscreen scuttle panel, an area highly exposed to moisture and blocked drainage channels that can lead to corrosion inside the ECU.

      In this article, we explain the typical symptoms of a failed Audi Q7 3.0 TDI engine control unit, when ECU cloning is still possible, and why in many situations an IMMO OFF Plug & Play solution is the fastest and most reliable repair option.

      0281015868 & 0281014174 – common ECU failures in the Audi Q7 3.0 TDI

      Learn why engine ECUs such as 4L1910401D and 4L0910401G are especially vulnerable to water ingress, which fault codes usually appear during diagnostics, and how professional ECU repair or replacement is performed for the Audi Q7 3.0 TDI.

      Water-Damaged Bosch 0281013691 / 4L0910401K ECU – Common Audi Q7 3.0 TDI Engine Control Unit Failure

      Water Damage in Bosch 0281013691 / 4L0910401K ECU – A Common Audi Q7 3.0 TDI Failure

      The Bosch 0281013691 / 4L0910401K engine control unit fitted to the Audi Q7 3.0 TDI 4L is well known for being vulnerable to water damage. In many cases, the issue is caused by the ECU’s location beneath the windshield cowl, where moisture and rainwater can accumulate over time due to blocked drainage channels.

      Symptoms of a failing ECU may appear gradually or occur suddenly after heavy rain, a car wash, or long periods of vehicle inactivity. Common signs include no communication with the engine control module, intermittent or complete no-start conditions, CAN bus communication faults, and in severe cases, a completely dead ECU in the Audi Q7 3.0 TDI.

      Similar problems frequently affect other Bosch EDC16CP34 units installed in the same location, including 0281012772 / 4L0907401, 0281012919 / 4L0907401, 0281013689 / 4L0910401M, and 0281013690 / 4L0910401L. These engine control units share nearly identical hardware architecture, with the main differences relating to software versions and vehicle-specific configuration used across different Audi Q7 3.0 TDI variants.

      In this article, we explain the most common failure symptoms of the 0281013691 / 4L0910401K ECU, the typical causes of water intrusion, CAN communication issues, and a practical solution in the form of a ready-to-install IMMO OFF Plug & Play engine ECU that works without immobilizer programming or data cloning.
