Basically i cannot get a ECU from a scrappy so i am gona have to splash £250 at vaux for the right one. Is it just a plug and play kindoff thing or will it need to be set up on diagnostics thing.

Also if i do this and it doesnt sort the problem will Vaux give me a refund?

Plug it in and away you go. Its not a re-mapable ECU so just plug it straight it.

Make sure you get one with the immobiliser deactivated.
