What will it cost?

Please provide the text you would like me to translate from German to English.

It was definitely the engine control unit (ECU). My tuner received the old control unit yesterday to try and fix the problem, and I'm supposed to cover the costs, which he will present to me.

Okay, please provide the text you would like me to translate from German to English.

Further up, but like this:

Are you sure the error is gone?

I think it's possible because my own control unit, which had a loose connection, might have been working at that moment, and they didn't know that the control unit had a problem. They assumed the new control unit worked immediately, just like my own did at that time.

Do other engine control units (ECUs) also fit in the car, such as those from the 110 hp engine or from other 90 hp engines, etc.? if so, what should be considered?

"It's not possible. The 110 hp version has a different engine map, different injectors, and a different opening pressure." Furthermore, various other parts are available in the area of the crankshaft/bearings/clutch.

In principle, it is possible to convert an ALH engine to run on ASV fuel, as the cylinder head, fuel injection pump, and turbocharger are the same, but simply swapping the engine control unit (ECU) is not a straightforward process.


"While this might not be relevant to you right now, I'm adding this as a supplement."

What all needs to be done to convert an ALH engine to an ASV engine?

The MSTG hardware may already be compatible, but you need to find the correct dataset.
bring it to the STG... and that means taking out the soldering iron again, and knowing what you're doing .

and what kind of horsepower can you potentially squeeze out of the engine?

But isn't your car already tuned?

No, I won't tune your car. Why are you asking after I supposedly fixed the problem?

I'm just not understanding this somehow...

With the new engine control unit, it now has 90 horsepower again, and I gave the old one back to my tuner.
'I was just curious to know what the difference is between the 90 hp and the 110 hp TDI engines. Also, I don't quite understand who asked you if you could tune my car?'

Please use the search function; this question has been asked 100 times already. There are different 90 horsepower engines and different 110 horsepower engines!
