Post by: calibrated on 14 December 2016, 20:56:53

Sorry for new topic again but nobody payed attention to my reply on older post :-\

is there difference in x25 and x30 ecu except in the eeprom map? i really cant get hold of x30 ecu but can buy x25 one...so if they're same except for the eeprom map i will buy x25 one and put x30 chip which i already have? Thanks

Dont know the answer you seek, but there are many x30xe ecu for sale on german eBay. www.ebay.de search for x30xe steuergerat.

as far as I know, yes, the only difference is EEPROM. If you replace/reprogram EEPROM you can interchange these ECUs.
Oh, by the way, I think you'll need also a new immobiliser chip together with ECU.
Or, if you have CARPASS for your car, you can bind your old immo chip and new ECU.

The mapping on the 2.5 and 3ltr is very close  ;)

Yes, you get a little more fuelling at the top end but the 3ltr engine will run perfectly well on a 2.5 ecu  :)

I dropped a 3 ltr in my old 2.5 and ran it on the 2.5 ecu for about 6 months with no problems whatsoever  :y
