DDE ECU 8572874 – what to know
BMW number 8572874 and Bosch number 0281019500 identify an original 2.0 Diesel engine ECU. This used unit has not been repaired or contaminated with diesel – we check this by opening the housing for an internal inspection. We then fit it to a test car and check how it runs. Warranty: 6 months.
Repair instead of replacement
If your ECU has no communication, cuts out once the engine is warm or has been contaminated with diesel, we can repair it – then it does not need programming. In the BMW 2.0 Diesel, diesel usually leaks from a faulty fuel pressure sensor and reaches the ECU connector through the wiring. Replace this sensor before refitting, or the problem will come back.

Programming or cloning – included
A used ECU must be programmed in the car or cloned with the data from your old ECU (immobiliser, ISN, VIN). Cloning is included in the price – send us your old unit and we will transfer the data to the ECU you bought.
