    Default ECU Location

    Can some one tell me where the ECU is located. I need to check the number of the main control unit.
    I will appreciate your help.

    Top left hand corner of the enagine bay (looking from the front of the car) between the wheel arch and windscreen.
    It's in a black box, undo a few screws and open up.
