    I have had a similar fault with one of these.It is not the same engine code as the normal ECU failure that is always on here .
    The fault code p1612 kept coming up & the car would sometimes run fine and then not even start.
    I first fitted an immobilizer ECU,ran the car for 25mls & had customer to collect (It broke down on him on the way home!)
    When the fault was occurring ,no comms with engine ECU.The cure was a new ECU from dealer.It also required coding by them.I tried a few places to have it repaired but nobody is doing them (small ECU bolted on side of head, looks like an ignition module)
    I have looked back in the archives a realized I did not post a fix (very sorry)
