Catalogue identity

The TuningService.uk ECU catalogue records EDC16CP42 under Bosch EDC16 (catalogue record 71, observed 10 November 2026). The catalogue name is an identification lead; it does not by itself prove vehicle fitment or software compatibility.

Application evidence

AutoTuner lists selected Renault, Nissan and Infiniti 3.0 diesel applications.

Tuning and identification

For specified Renault CP42 writes, AutoTuner describes injector-coding handling. It also lists CP42 for Renault-specific datalogging; available channels depend on the actual vehicle and tool.

Read EDC16 torque fuel and tuning basics and EDC16 variant application and tuning differences for the shared context. Examples are not an exhaustive fitment list; check the installed ECU and current tool documentation.

Additional source evidence

AutoTuner’s Renault-group logging announcement lists categories including air mass, boost, fuel pressure, injection, torque and temperatures. This is a group-wide list spanning many controllers; it does not promise that each channel is supported on a particular CP42. See EDC16 diagnostic data and configuration examples. AutoTuner Renault-group logging.

Further application examples

Alientech’s 2017 list includes Infiniti EX30d V9X and Nissan Navara 3.0 dCi V9X examples under EDC16CP42. The same list also has a separate Navara 3.0 entry under CP33, so the vehicle label alone is insufficient. Alientech, PDF pages 62 and 80.

Additional identification and diagnostics

AutoTuner’s EDC16CP42 MPC564 list names selected Infiniti EX, FX, M and QX70 30d, Nissan Navara and Pathfinder 3.0 dCi, and Renault Laguna and Latitude 3.0 dCi examples. This is tool coverage for the listed entries, not a complete fitment or a guarantee for a particular vehicle. AutoTuner EDC16CP42 MPC564 compatibility.

Identification photograph

The Nissan-labelled ECU shows Bosch 0 281 017 471 and 23710 1BY8C. The seller lists this Infiniti EX 3.0D example as EDC16CP42; the family suffix itself is not visible on the label.
