Audi Ecu

[David Marsh]

Hi I have an Audi a5 sportback 2017 and would like to know if the ecu has a top plastic cover or it should be bare metal. 
 

as you can see at the moment there is no cover on mine but I’m not sure if there should be a cover or not.  
any advice would be appreciated.

 

cheers

David

Hi sorry no cover, Fords used to do it but I think everyone learned from that, the ECU gets warm and a cover creates condensation which corrodes the units connections
