pROJECT mAYHEM is slowly but surely turning into a money pit of infinite proportions it would seem. The ECU came back with the imnmobiliser turned off and it made no difference to the issues that it is suffering so the ECU is at fault - if I thought that things couldn't get any worse I was proved wrong on a grand scale.
The mission now is to to either get the ECU rebuilt, find a replacement one from a breakers yard or buy a new one from VW. All of these scenarios have issues - getting the ECU rebuilt is going to be hard as it is such a new van and from preliminary investigations the guys out there who do this sort of work haven't get the tech to do this yet. Replacing the ECU with one from a breaker also requires that the immobiliser and the keys are taken from the same vehicle as the three are all interlinked together - replace one or two parts and it simply won't work so it is all three parts or bust. The final option is to take it to a dealer which is going to be rape of epic proportions on a financial scale.
Doom, fucking doom!!
