Thanks for the suggestion; I had look. BBA sell replacement ECUs. What Victor Rocha does is repair the existing unit, at about a fifth of the cost of having Volvo replace it and less than half of the cost of buying a new one from BBA.

He also claims that the particular fault he fixes is so common that it can be regarded as a weakness in the original part, the upshot being that you might have it replaced and find it fails again.

All in all it's a pretty convincing sales pitch. I wanted to hear if anyone this side of the Atlantic had sent their unit to him for repair and if they were satisfied.

I'm in Portugal, by the way.
