Default Re: Doing Up My Car, Need Help

You won't need a new ECU unless the original one is faulty. It's highly unlikely for an ECU to work a little bit. THey're generally all or nothing devices.

One thought that does come to mind is this - get the whole ECU re-flashed with whatever is the latest code release from VW. It is possible that there is some corruption in the ECU which can be caused by electrical interference.
