Yeah... I have seen many just trouble shoot with a second DME. Sorry I couldnt help, but will try to find that one thread that comes to mind about DME repair.

OT but wasnt Rogue going to reproduce the DME and sell it? Seeing as DME failures will only increase with time. This would be an excellent option to consider.

Rogue is producing new DME's for the 951 for around $500 IIRC. There really isn't a way to test your existing DME easily, borrowing a known good one or sending yours off for repair are really your only options outside of buying the new one.

Yes I spoke to Josh about his but he is currently out of stock for a few weeks or who knows how long I currently need one pretty soon so I would like to get my car back especially with my brand-new 3 L motor and it's been in the shop for roughly 8 months putting everything they gather and working all the kinks out we are just about ready to Dino tune but we believe my DME is faulty somewhere. No one seems to want to lend out a DME so I could test. I found a place online called specialized ECU repair looks like the only work with European cars want to know if anybody has done something like this or recommend anything. I do not want to buy a DME if it is not needed no need to waste the money!! I called the place Saturday I'm awaiting a phone call from a technician hopefully they can test my current being me or look at it and see if something is wrong hopefully something is wrong with it so I can get this issue fixed in the car back on the road
