Any one know were the ECM(electronic control module) is in a 2008 ford galaxy 1.8 tdci. There one under the passanger side foot well but I'm not sure if there is another one in the engine bay, ECM fault code says it's corrupted along with over 20 to 30  other random codes . Also it starting to jerk at low speeds. 

Cheers
