Think you need to get a cheapo tech 2 to read the codes yourself.  I'd definitely want a second opinion before changing the ECU.  Many garages blame the ECU being faulty when there is nothing wrong with it.  You have a fault of some sorts but you need to get a fault code before anyone can really help.
