    Me7 ecus

    Need a little help here, i have changed the engine in the c70 i have for a different engine, when i did the change on the v70 i had to change the ecu, immo box and the key

    I have done the same with the c70 and got nothing.... what else do i need to change it, i have done so far:

    ECU change
    Took the chip out of the key and placed it into a new key
    Changed the immo box

    and thats it, is there something else i need as im stumped, i put the 2.0t ecu and the original immo box, use the original key and it fires up but very badly due to not being right ecu

    any help would be hugely appreciated thanks in advance

    I thought the ME7 has an immo chip which is coded to the CEM (central electronic module) - porting ECUs is difficult (well according to Hamish). Bubba & I faced the same issue when porting the RICA mapped ECU to his car from the one I dragged up from Devon.

    from reading what they acually do you need a hybrid of the 2 ECUs on one ECU, V70R peramiters with the immobiliser info from the 2.0lpt ECU that way it will be set up correctly to run the R engine

    nah not really as long as they have cracked the code to be able to write to the ECU its just a case of putting the files on the correct ECU then it will be plug and play
