Help with purchasing an ML320 ECM
So I took my 2000 ML320 into the dealer and they told me I need a new ECM which is $2600 installed.

I looked around and found some used and/or rebuilt ones. I am now being told by Mercedes-Benz of OKC that I can't use one of those because they are ordered specifically from the dealer using my VIN number.

Is this true? I have heard of others doing this and was successful.

MB of Fort Lauderdale will sell an ECM for $1825. So, they're saying that it's $775.00 labor to install it? Geez!

cmitch,

I might need to give the Fort lauderdale a call. MB of Oklahoma City are saying the part is $2300. I thought that sounded a little steep. Thanks for the heads up!

This link will get you there quick, but remember. The dealer still has to install it.
