This uses a different ECU to some 1.4's. Mine is the same. Its uses the Siemens Simtec 56.5 system and uses P codes which are four digit.

Are you sure its 0170? got a list of faults and that one insnt listed.

yes but there also the codes for the Simtec 56.5 which broster has, so they carry across...

quote:
The Simtec 56.5 fuel systems use a 4 digit flash code. The engine ideally needs to be running when reading the fault codes, otherwise it may show incorrect fault codes.

but yes, that ECU should be used on X18XE and X20XE, NOT X16XE

X16XE / X14XE uses
GM Multec MPi
GM Multec S
GM Multec CFi (XEL)

one of those...
