What is an ECU?

All modern vehicle engines are controlled electronically by an ECU (Engine Control Unit), which always processes information that it receives from numerous sensors around the car. Several elements, such as the engine fuelling and ignition timing, are all lined up and calibrated within the ECU code. The code is based on the conditions in which the vehicle is being used, quality of fuel, altitude and much more. By working alongside the sensor information, the relevant tables, or ‘maps’, are used to maintain optimal performance output for the engine when running.

What is ECU Remapping

When it comes to designing and developing a new car model, the manufacturers have to consider the varying conditions in which the car may be used across the world. With every car designed for a different market and location, the new cars need to be designed to perform accordingly at their maximum. With this an important part of any vehicle, manufacturers and engineers look into many factors from these locations, such as fuel availability, temperature variations, emission laws, etc.

ECU remapping is taking a reading from the ECU’s processing chip, which contains the vehicle’s standard settings, and adjusting various parameters to increase the vehicle’s performance. Regarding the safety of the ECU Remap, there is nothing to worry about as the process simply removes the restrictions on the vehicle to allow it to produce additional power and often lower fuel consumption.

ECU Remapping Benefits

Alongside improving the engine’s power and torque figures, the ECU programming sharpens the response between pedal to throttle engagement. When driving a remapped vehicle, the experience is often livelier as the power delivery is much more linear than before. The manufacturers restrict the car’s performance to ensure it can be sold to fleet buyers. However, to lift these parameters is completely safe using an ECU Remap.

With many drivers worrying about fuel consumption, ECU Remapping is a great way to reduce this. The process enables you to maintain motorway speeds with reduced throttle input, meaning when it comes to driving at slower speeds, you can stay in the higher band of gears. This is widely beneficial, especially when towing or on an incline.

Testimonials

We are proud to receive such overwhelming feedback from the Perth Mercedes-Benz community.

    My transmission was giving trouble in my C200 and a friend recommened to try Trent. The out come was simply FANTASTIC. My 23 year old car drives better than a brand new car after Trent at Star & Circle repaired my transmission. If you wish to get good old fashioned honest service no one is better than Trent.

    Punnya Wicks

    I just had the most wonderful experience at this business today. As a woman I felt both listened to and validated. Not once was I made to feel stupid or unintelligent just because I’m a woman. I highly, highly, recommend this mechanic for all your mechanical needs.

    Zara Secker

    My Fiancé and I have been travelling around Australia and during that time we have visited numerous mechanics to have our Mercedes’ Benz Sprinter serviced and inspected.

    Perth was the last spot on our trip around Aus and I can honestly say that Star and Circle Automotive were the best and most professional mechanics that we dealt with on our adventure!

    Sam Staib

    These guys diagnosed a problem, in 2 minutes, that the manufacturers service department missed in 2 days. They replaced the part, did more work, the final cost was less and the repairs have taken my vehicle to the next level. Talking over the phone the gentleman was straight to the point and these guys will be my regular service place from now on!

    Matt AZ

    I have had issues with my car for sometime and tried other automotive engineers. Having used Jon and Trent for servicing they finally with patience and professionalism got the bottom of the issue and resolved the problem at what I felt was a very competitive price. Would highly recommend to any other Mercedes owners!

    Martin Harrison

    Trent & Jon are brilliant do deal with. I’ve had several logbook services for my E400 done with S&C – their professionalism, expertise and manner are outstanding. I couldn’t recommend them highly enough. I’ve had several dealings with MB dealers and after-market MB service places in Perth and I believe this is the only place to take your Mercedes.

    Andrew Traum

    If you want a genuine MB enthusiast working on your car that actually drives them him self (most MB mechanics don’t) this is the place to go. Trent has MB fluids pumping through his veins from birth, he has been exposed to them his entire life and his family history also includes dealership ownership. No one else can compete with this, period.
