Do you have a Engine Management Light on? If not does the light work ie light when you first turn the ign on.

Ask them for a print out of the fault codes that led them to that conclusion.

I very much doubt it is the ECU. *VERY* much doubt.

Vauxhall dealers don't use the brightest sparks in the fire, if you catch my drift - they can't at the money they pay them ;)

Updating your location may help, somebody nearby might be able to diagnose better than the dealer ;)

If you had added your location as asked there may well have been a member near you to assist with a decent code reader :-/ :-?
