Problem: I have buy a Noble.
Someone think: "where is the problem?" I reply no particulary problems but.... every car have an MBE and mine too!!!!!!!

Someone smile now tongue out ..... and someone think: "oh noooooo one more time MBE topic? furious"
But for me no easy to find one good NobleCHIPman where no one know Noble cars.

Existing an "plug and play" solution?

Thank you for your reply
king regards Alberto

Hi,
So I think you are asking about what to do if you have problems with the MBE ECU. As you know they are locked down, however it seems that there are plenty of tuners who were not given the codes from the factory and have managed to access these.

I'd have thought UK Garage in Milan (seems to be 200 Km away) would either be able to access it or know a garage locally that has as they were the Italian dealer.

Might also be worth contacting brischi on here, his car looks pretty modded and he is also from Italy so may have some useful info.

Rob.

Yes, that is correct. The Magneti Marelli was not 'fit for purpose' but all the later cars have a MBE ecu fitted. So the MBE is good.
