Thanks for all the responses. Sadly, to my woes, the brake has become so stiff and I need to focus on that. Please encourage to persevere as I have a soft spot for my old Audi but am I just going to get one thing after another? Thanks again Any ideas why the brake is so stiff to press and what I can check before getting a mechanic on board

I have a 2006 Audi A4 cabriolet. I love it but the ECU/ECC is water damaged. I haven't yet worked out where the water is coming from but I have worked out how to take out the ECU unit. I bought a second hand ECU with the right reference number but think it might be water damaged too but if anyone knows where you can buy ECU's I would be grateful. My question is simple and yet a real pain. One of the connector's that you put in the ECU is really bad. However, I cannot take the wires out of the pin holes. Someone told me to get a pin tool and when I looked in to it, there are so many; one pin, two pin and all different sizes and types. The pins hold the wires and if you try to pull on them, they have something in them that stops it budging it. I get that but my God, it is a pain. Has anyone any idea of the pin tool I need to get it out. I'm at my wits end and don't want to pay £500 to a main garage to do ten minute jobs. Thank you in anticipation
