Make sure you know why the original one 'fried' before buying and installing a new one.


The ECUs don't fail on these cars that I am aware of...


I would also recommend an OEM one and have the dealership use the MUTIII tool to flash to your s/w version based on your VIN. Solves everything.

It burnt because of the tuner, one of the wires ground off i guess while during the bench flash.
