This used BMW ECU / DME Engine Control Module, OEM part number 9896978 (also replaces 8744139), comes from a 2.0L turbocharged four-cylinder — likely the B48 engine family. The module manages fuel delivery, ignition timing, and boost pressure; when it fails, symptoms include no-start, rough idle, or a sudden loss of power. Since programming is required, the unit must be coded to your vehicle’s VIN by a qualified shop or dealer before use.
