Is There Such a Thing As.....

Featured Replies

Just trowing this one out there......Is there an AWD computer and a MPFI computer on subarus....or are they both part of the same main ECU?....by the way i have a 1996 Legacy L EJ22 with a 5spd.

The AWD of a 5 speed is totally mechanical. No TCU in a MT car.

 

The ECU and TCU in AT cars are to seperate units, but they do comunicate with each other. And the "AWD computer" is a funtion of the TCU.

Wow nice accurate concise reply!

before someone else says it, the DCCD in those beefed up STi 6 speeds have computers/controllers.

 

your Legacy has an ECU (engine control unit) and nothing for the transmission.
