hi . i need a new engine for my l reg mk 3 golf . my golf was one of the early ones so came out of the factory without an ecu. will an engine with an ecu work on my car. or is there to many complications with the wirring? cheers tim

Whats the engine code?

I would guess all mk3's should have a ecu.

Even the mk2's have ECU's, do you mean a non immobilised ECU?
Early ones didn't have an Immobilliser >95 I think.
Check in the scuttle where the windscreen wipers are on drivers side.
Get the code off your ECU and the code off the belt cover/ barcode thing for your engine code ABF, 2E etc
ECU's look like this....

I recently did an ECU change on my ABF. I searched high and low for a non-immobilised ECU and finally found one in, of all places, Puerto Rico!
Cost me about 175 squid to get it sent over.
Rocking horse sh!t to find, but the part no. was 037 906 024 ab.
The 'ab' revision is the one you would have to look for if you want non-imm.

ye i found the ecu next to the pollen filter. the engine that was origionaly in it was a 1.8 abs engine. ive been offerd a 2 litre engine with its ecu of a car of roughly the same age, i dont know its engine code. would i have to change the whole wirring lombe for the engine to run ? would there be alot of electrical work involved. sorry if im being a bit vague. :huh:

:shocked: yikes! I got mine from a guy in Aberdeen, even if he sent me an ABS ECU to start with.
Good info part no as mine is in the garage somewhere.
I believe, but don't quote me on this, that you can bypass the immobiliser on the later ECU's, can't remember the exact details but Danny_P or someone may be better able to advise?

engine codes/ as much info as poss are always useful when looking for useful info

Yes you would need to switch the wring loom.

orite cheers m8. well the guy ses the engine cums with the ecu and wiring lombe bt i dont know wot part of the lomb hes talking about. im sure ile get it running sumhow lol. any other info or links to topics would be greatfull ;) cheers

Your going to need the loom from the fusebox forward.

You could always ask then let us know what they say for a giggle. :wink:

bold are apparently immobiliser one's (but don't hold me to that!)

Excellent, will file this for future info. Cheers BoneyBradley :nerd:
