i know its meant to be in help section but i posted there and no reply. but anyway:
Hi,
cars been to an from different garages for engine diagnostic tests including vauxhall. these all return with the same problem a sensor. now iv taken it to a well known garage and they have stripped back the loom to the try to find the fault this appears to be all fine. so they have now said that they are 98% sure that its the ECU. Therefore they are offering to reapir it. this involves something to do with a board that twists when it gets hot? i was told that its a problem that comes up quite often?
Just wondeing your views on this or if you had any of the similar problems? bearing in mind i have corsa sport 1.4 2000 W with only 53k on the clock

tbh I cant really see a ecu over heating, more likely water could have damaged it.

just get a replacement ecu then just plug and play it saves having the old one repaired
