Catalogue identity
The TuningService.uk ECU catalogue records EDC16C1 under Bosch EDC16 (catalogue record 6, 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 BMW 18d and 20d examples.
Tuning and identification
BMW applications still require the exact DDE/ECU hardware and software identifiers; the same engine designation can appear with a different EDC16 model.
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 application evidence
Alientech’s Powergate 3+ list identifies selected BMW E46 318d M47D20U1 examples as EDC16C1 and labels the processor MPC563. AutoTuner’s BMW EDC16C1 compatibility entry instead lists MPC556. These tool-list descriptions may concern different units or contain a source discrepancy; verify the actual ECU hardware and tool protocol.

Identification photograph
The image shows a BMW-labelled unit with DDE 7 794 904 on the case. The seller identifies the Bosch 0 281 011 231 example as EDC16C1-4.32; the EDC suffix itself is not legible in the photograph. Match the full label and software rather than relying on case shape.
