Default 2001 A4 1.8tq 5 speed ECU needed

during a chip install my ECU got shorted out and now I'm without the car. Audi (and everyone else I've talked to) says it will take 3+ weeks to get a new one. Anyone know where I can get one sooner? I need a 018CH ECU for a 2001 1.8TQ Manual trans. thanks... josh (jk@jother.com)

I took it to a shop to have it done and one of the guys made a mistake by letting it touch the frame of the car while testing it. In the shops defense, they have been doing everything they can to be helpful. Mistakes happen....

tell the shop to pay for the rental until an ECU comes up...sounds about right...
