Anyone able to check before I try find one. It's 125bhp trend model and it's sid08 ecu

Try having it tested and maybe repaired first ?

Chances of simply being able to plug in another ecu and it just working are almost zero.

ECU failures are rare for any car...why do you think it is the ecu ?

Me and the Mrs had a Mokka when the wheel bearing went on her focus.

If was a petrol and was flat as a fart. The seats were uncomfortable too.
