Hi all,

I have been trawling the forums to find a cheap solution to my current ECU issue, I will list below my car and what the issue is, I would appreciate any direction or advice as I no longer have the cash to throw at having Audi fix it!

AUDI Cabriolet
1997
2.0e
R644 BKP
WAUZZZ8GZWN003917
5 speed Manual

In my wisdom I bought an upgraded chip off eBay (Turbonoz) and gave them my info, fitted the chip easily and it worked, went for a run and the car stopped running whilst pulling up to lights, took a few mins to restart.
Next the ABS light came on?? so I emailed the chip sellers, they said I shouldn't of put it in because my ECU wasn't Bosch it was Siemens, my fault for not knowing the difference.
.
I put the original Chip in and the car wouldn't fire up at all, put the new one in and it would start!
I couldn't send the new chip back because now my car won't accept old chip??


took it to Audi today (£115 + vat per hour) and they said the original chip must be broken because the reader didn't show it being there at all but when it showed the new one it said it was a 1.6 Digifant?? Single Point Inj apparently.

A new ECU is £600 + having it married to my car again.

My new dilemma is about the best route, the part number of my ECU is:
039 906 024 F
I can get
039 906 024 A easily but will it work after being programmed to my immobiliser?

If it doesn't I would of wasted another £150+ with no progression.

Any ideas or help would be very appreciated.

Best Regards
