Need a new ECU - Compatibility

[ile2010]

The ecu from a v6 is not that complicated. All you need to do is have the dealer program it. The only difference between an ecu on an 06-09 v6 is if your 08 was a turbo x cause it's a different variant code for the more horsepower and saddle tank on v6 and an 09 is the same but there was no xwd in 07 so your fine on that. I'm the service director of park ave Saab and have been a Saab tech since 2002. We do these swaps all the time cause they go bad like crazy

The donor ECU came from an XWD car and now my fuel gauge doesn't work (with code for 2nd fuel level sensor, which my car obviously doesn't have). Everything else works great. Error in programming at the dealer or is this something that can't be solved? When I ordered the replacement from a wrecker in Quebec, it wasn't specified that it came from XWD.

Hi, I was looking for information to set up a backup ECU for my Turbo X, and I came across this discussion. In case the participants are still around, ile2020, how did your project turn out, and and what became of that donor XWD ECU you started out with?
