Yes, the VW Ahu engine requires an ECU (Engine Control Unit) to manage its operation. The ECU controls various engine functions, including fuel injection, ignition timing, and emissions. Without a functioning ECU, the engine may not run properly or at all, as it relies on the ECU for optimal performance and efficiency.

Yes, the ECU on a 2008 VW Eos can shut off the engine if it detects low oil pressure. This safety feature is designed to protect the engine from damage caused by inadequate lubrication. If the oil pressure drops below a certain threshold, the ECU may trigger a warning light and eventually disable the engine to prevent further harm. Regular maintenance and oil checks are crucial to avoid such situations.
The ECU (Engine Control Unit) in a VW Polo is typically located in the engine bay, near the bulkhead or firewall. In many models, it can be found on the driver's side, mounted on or near the engine itself. Access may require removing covers or components, depending on the specific model year. Always refer to the vehicle's service manual for precise location details.
