Dears,

I wonder if there's any ECU differences between Z16XE and Z16SE? If not, can we use Z16XE engines ECU on Z16SE engines?

I have Opel Astra MK4|G with engine Z16SE 1.6 L 16V, 2004, ECOTEC, DOHC, Brazilian made, the car supplied with AT, ABS, EGR, Knock sensor, electronic throttle, ECU controlled car fan's, and only one O2 sensor (sensor #1). Listed below the car ECU info:

GM 93302294 DUMA XG
Delphi Delco HSFI 2.3

Car VIN is : W0L5TGF694F001409

My engine "Z16SE" ECU loaded with HSFI-2.3 version while the other "Z16XE" engines supplied with HSFI-2.1|2 ECU ... is it doable with extra programming step to use HSFI-2.1 instead of HSFI-2.3 ECU?

Thanks,
Mostafa

Hsfi 2.5 and 2.1 have the same hardware,only the software is different.You need to reflash the software with Tech2 and Global Tis, make sure its been reset then pair it to the car.

Or clone the Eeprom with Carprog and clone flash with MPPS.

I know 2.5 can replace a 2.1 but have never done a 2.1 to 2.3..if you have access to programming equipment then try it, you have nothing to lose. i would expect the hardware to be the same so only a software difference, can you not get the correct ecu.

if your engine code is Z16SE will work abeit you might need to perform variant configuration with op-com depending what extras you have ac auto box esp abs etc, also having the pin will alow to be paired with existing immobilizer or you could get the chips and reader swapped and be plug and play...

about the ebay stuff... if you get it, ebay has a pretty good policy if you pay through paypal... i would not recommend getting it now and install on the car 1 month later... tho...
