Good morning,

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

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.
