For people from EUROPE: there is a company in Poland that fixes the ECU but only with specific DTC from ECU and they give You a 3 month warranty. They also sell working ECUs. Also there is a same company in UK and Italy that are fixing ECUs, the price is higher but the warranty is better and longer. If You need some info ask in this comment. Kyle, thanks for the info that You put in your videos ;)
Nice to see a big supplier jumping in! Hope this continues and causes price to get more competitive. Still, for that price, to include the spacer kit as well?! Great deal.
My car, an 06 Saab 9-3 suffered from ECM failure. So I found a good used one, and to prevent future failures, I taked the ECM out off the engine heat. I extented the ecm harness up to the the side of the air filter box, also I purchase an open air filter with a heat barrier, so the new ecm home is about 20 celsius degrees lower then the engine area. To do this job, I purchased anothers saab ECM harness, and cut and extend one by one cable to avoid messing them. No more fails at all. Cheers!
ideally - you need to get in contact with the Taiwan Saab guys and get the relocator kit and its much more labor intensive. Also you didn't mention that you need to clone your old unit to the new.
@@ajhype Well, I sent them the wrong one. They had one there that was the same part number then flashed my old info onto the one they had. We did a sort of exchange for the wrong one I sent. They treated me very well! Give them a try! There is also a guy called Scott's Saab. People seemed to like that guy as well...

Xemodex from Canada fixed mine. You might want to give them a try as well
Interesting. I'm from GTA. Did they repair the existing ECM or flash existing and send you a remanufactured one? Curious how they repaired yours?
