1996 E320 W210.055
ECU USed ECU to Virgin State

Hello! I have a 1996 E320 with a lot of life left! Only thing is that the ECU is going bad.
I know I can buy a used ECU from a recycler, but I need someone I can pay with the skills and knowledge to help me make the ECU swap.

Anyone on this board able to do the "ECM Virginizing" I have been reading about?
Please message me!

Also anyone in the Cleveland Area with the DAS XEntry or Star Diag system I can have scan my car?

Welcome Joseph,

You profile says you own a 2007 e550 - This is a w211.
You're in the wrong forum - this is the w210.
