How to Remove the Porsche Panamera 971 ECU

If you want to do an ECU flash on your Porsche Panamera 971, you need to remove the ECU from the vehicle and send it in to VR Tuned.   The Porsche 971 Panamera became available in late 2018 providing an all new platform for the Porsche sedan.  This includes their 2.9L Turbo and 4.0L Turbo engines found in the S and Turbo models.  Unlike the previous Panamera 970 that had the ECU located beneath the window cowling as seen here, the 971 actually has the ECU in drivers wheel well.  This is not the first time we have seen something crazy like this from an OEM.  In fact the Mercedes E63 AMG 6.3L V8 also had the ECU located in the fender well.
