ABS Module Replacement advice needed

[squeasel]

Greetings All! I was not able to get through all of the posts on ABS modules. I am hoping for some advice on ABS replacement for a 2003 3.0 Automatic.

I have seen some places that will repair a module. A BMW mechanic told me this might be a good option because there would be no recoding necessary.

I have seen places that sell a new module discounted to around $350US. I assume this will require recoding that I cannot do myself.

Perhaps there are other options. I am all ears!
