XK8 Vats
 
I have a 1999 XK8 which I believe has an engine ECU problem. I have ordered a replacement on eBay which the vats number may not match. Can I program the ECU with the required VATS number.

Welcome to the forum lesintheusa,

You will get more help and possibly save $$ if you add details on why you believe your XK8 has an ECM issue.

When you get a minute, please follow this link New Member Area - Intro a MUST - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum to the New Member Area - Intro a MUST forum and post some info about yourself and your vehicle for all members to see.

In return you'll get a proper welcome and some useful advice about posting to the forum.

Contact Automotive Scientific Inc. at autoecu.com. They will either exchange or rebuild your ECU for under $400.

I forgot to mention that will test the ECU for $55, and if it needs repair the test cost is included in the repair price.
