Note: This ECU may also fit other models.

We repair the Bosch ME7.5 petrol ECU for Audi, Volkswagen, Seat and Skoda owners and for the garages that look after their cars. Each unit’s fault is traced down to the part responsible, and that part is then repaired at our workshop by engineers on our staff.

This page is arranged by model. Under each model heading is a list of Bosch numbers that parts listings connect with that vehicle, so a reader holding a Bosch number can check whether it appears beneath the model of their car.

Where you have the Volkswagen number to hand and not the Bosch one, our ME7.5 page arranged by Volkswagen number suits the search better.

Bosch ME7.5 numbers set out under each model

Bosch numbers in each list below are ones parts listings give for the model in the heading above them. When listings settle on an engine size for a number, the size follows the number in brackets. Some numbers appear beneath several models, because listings give more than one car for them.

Our bench process for a Bosch ME7.5

A Bosch ME7.5 can be sent in by post from anywhere across the UK. We book it in on arrival and inspect it by eye before it goes on electrical test.

Diagnostic work is then steered by the fault you report, carrying on until the failed component is located. Dry joints, failed injector drivers, failed voltage regulators and CAN bus transceivers are component-level faults of the kind our engineers repair; diagnosis of the individual ECU shows which, if any, is present.

Under a microscope, our engineers mend the faulty part with rework tools whose heat is closely controlled. Those engineers are our employees, the tools belong to us, and nothing goes to an outside firm, a subcontractor or an overseas site. The ECU is kept here until it clears final testing.

Diagnosis first, then your decision

With diagnosis done, we get in touch to explain what we found and to quote for the repair. You give the go-ahead, or not, before anything chargeable begins.

Each repair our engineers make on your ECU comes with 24 months’ warranty from us, personal to you and never the next owner’s. The ECU we send back is the one you posted, so it is plug & play on refit and needs no recoding.

Getting a Bosch ME7.5 repair quote

To start a quote, complete the Repair Form online, adding the Bosch number, the vehicle and the problem it is causing. If you are unsure whether a given unit is something we handle, our technical team looks into it and tells you, instead of guessing.

Separate hubs also gather each make’s engine ECUs: Audi, Volkswagen, Seat and Skoda. Makes outside this page are covered from the engine ECU area of the site, and What We Repair gives more examples of the units that reach our workshop.
