Potentially replacing with a used unit seems top option for now. Did you do this yourself? I'll check Elsa to see what's involved and if I should do the work myself.

Thanks again.
yes I did after discovering you cant do it the other way! well you can but the ecu part has to be exactly the same coming off as the one youve already got.

second hand units seem to go from £160-£250 from what I've seen. David sometimes has them at A8 Parts. Failing that I think we might have at least 1 second hand unit laying around this end as a spare if you cant find one elsewhere.
