I have a manual D2 2003. I was confused to find a transmission ECU under the passenger seat. Why on earth is there a transmission controller for a manual car? Could this be an automatic originally that has been converted?
D2 Manual with Transmission Controller??

Yes, it seems that it's a converted auto cos i don't see other explanation for that TCM there... which IMO is not good news cos it's possible to be full of bodged up mods

The vehicle is in very good rust free condition. Hence why I bought it. What do you think could be the dodgy areas that I should look into?

I've seen two such converted vehicles myself and both were full of ugly improvisations on the clutch hidraulical and electrical side hence my concern but maybe you are lucky and somebody scrupulous converted it. where is the clutch switch fitted on your's ?
