How to replace the OEM ECU?

I have a bad ECU and need to change it out.
Can I buy a used ECU from another car and put it in?
Does the part number matter or as long as the car is the same year?

yes you can but you will have to have it reprogrammed to your car, i think the dealer will do that for $100

Thank you.
So it does matter which year I get?
AP1 or AP2 will work okay?

I think there is a difference in the rev limiter. AP1=9,000. AP2=8,000. You should be able to confirm w/the dealer before you buy...

I'm sorry, what was your question again? I was distracted by your signature...
