{"product_id":"bosch-engine-control-unit-module","title":"Bosch Engine Control Unit Module","description":"The BMW engine control unit module, with Bosch part number 0261S18458 and OEM part number 8689722, is a used replacement component designed for specific BMW 3 Series models.\n\nThis particular ECU is listed as compatible with the BMW 3 Series F30, F35, and F31 body styles. While one source mentions a 2006 model year, other search results indicate compatibility with newer models such as the 2016-2019 BMW 4 Series (F32 430i) and 2017-2019 BMW 330i, often associated with the B46, B48, or B58 engines. It is crucial to verify the exact engine and model year compatibility for your specific vehicle before purchase, as ECU systems can vary significantly.\n\nWhen considering replacement ECUs, especially for modern vehicles, installation and programming are critical. Many sources emphasize that replacing an ECM typically requires reprogramming by a qualified technician or a high-tech automotive locksmith. Dealership tools are often locked by the manufacturer, preventing the installation of used modules. Buyers should confirm installation procedures and ensure they have access to the necessary programming equipment or services, as sellers' liability is typically limited to the cost of the part itself and they cannot assist with installation inquiries.","brand":"BMW","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52687143797048,"sku":"0261S18458","price":541.18,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0970\/4895\/3144\/files\/660187230.webp?v=1784880817","url":"https:\/\/store.motormia.co\/products\/bosch-engine-control-unit-module","provider":"MOTORMIA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
