sounds like vac leak more than an ecu issue. Could also have an air pocket in your coolant.

I agree, I dont think its an ECU issue. Spray WD40 on all the vac hoses and listen for a change in idle. Check IACV also.

People do use that ecu for the D15bs. Its definitly time to start checking for leaks. Hoses do go bad after a while and all of a sudden.
