my question is, and i may get the hell ripped outta me if this is a dumb question, but are the ECU's from the gti-6 and xsara vts ph1 the same/ compatible? Ive been informed my ecu is ill and is causing problems with the stepper motor functioning properly, causing the annoying stalling im getting. I have been quoted 300 quid to have it tested and reprogrammed.Thanks ________________________________________ My car has 120kg of ballast- Me! |

An S reg '6' would be a Phase 2 so you're best off looking for one of that age.  ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone  |

Any as long as it's a 1ap 10 will be fineI've currently got a phase 1 ecu in my phase 2.5 rallye Just make sure when you plug the new one in (unless it's a professionally unlocked one) that your ignition is on! I go fully on (bar the cranking point) when I do it otherwise you'll just lock it  ________________________________________ Cherry rallye - DOB Thursday 29/04/1999Team Rallye - the leaner, meaner, better looking sister of the GTI6  roland rat wrote: You sir either live for the 6 or have a mental retardation to still be repairing this!

I don't think it matters where it is when you refit but if you have an "open" Ecu not a "unlocked" one I have been told that if you don't disconnect the immobilser wiring on the car you are refiiting it to the Ecu will re lock so maybe the way you have been told prevents this happening.To the original poster I would advise you get a second opinion on the diagnosis as there are lots of things that stop gti6's and Vts's idlling properly but I'm yet to come across one where the Ecu has been the cause. ________________________________________ Ryan |

As for the diag it was the deepest any body had managed to get, no other tests came up with anything as thorough. Thanks for all the info so far guys. ________________________________________ My car has 120kg of ballast- Me! |

ECU reset can be carried out by leaving the battery disconnected for over 20 mins. Then reconnect it. ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone |
