Which vehicles does this TCU fit?

This unit is used across Mercedes. Check your exact model and year under Matching Vehicles, or compare the number printed on your own unit with the part numbers listed on this page. The same hardware often appears under several part numbers — call 01884 798090 if yours is not shown.

Frequently asked questions

Do I still have to send my old unit in?

Yes. All replacement units are supplied on an exchange basis and have to be matched to your car: your original is needed for the data transfer — we copy its coding and adaptation data onto the new unit before it ships — and it stays with us as the exchange.

How long will I be without the unit?

Replacement units normally leave us within 2–5 working days of receiving your original. Should it take longer, we will contact you with an update. It comes to you on a tracked service. Ask about on-site fitting if you need the car back the same day.

My part number isn’t in the list — can you still help?

Usually yes. The same hardware appears under many part numbers. Send us a photo of the label or call 01884 798090 and we’ll confirm before you send anything.

What warranty do I get?

Replacement units carry a 12-month warranty. See Returns & Warranty for the full terms.

Will the warning light go out after the work?

Yes, once the unit is refitted and the stored codes are cleared, provided the fault was in this unit. If a related wiring or sensor fault is also present it has to be fixed separately — we tell you what we found.
