Good morning,

Where did you get those numbers for the ECM? I do not see those numbers listed from Benz.

Good day,

Got them from the stickers on the ECU it self, see pictures.

First picture is from my car and the rest is from eBay.

Thanks,

Okay, that is the wrong unit for your car.

I attached the correct unit for you.

I just checked as this is not a USA VIN number.

The ECM you chose has the same numbers as the one you removed, so it should work once it is programmed to your car.
