Im going to have to remove my ecu to as im getting a kpro,i know where it is but just want any advice on removing it.

is it a simple plug out or is there more to it?

should i do anything before i plug it out? will it matter if its out of the car for a week?

took mine out sunday, 3 bolts and remove the 3 connectors by holding in the tab and I used a flat screw driver just to help ease them out as they are very tight. 10 minute job. Pressed the alarm and she locked up as per normal, jobs a good un :xcheers:

About time for you to get a kpro, you've been on the hunt for long enough!

Decided on the tuner?

Id disconnect the battery aswel before removing it, just to be exta safe so you dont short circuit anything and blow a fuse

what are you on about :roll:
Think it was a joke lol.
thats what annoys me about this site, same guy will slate a guy for throwing up a thread without using the "search" button but can still spam other lads threads.

double standards
