Got my car back today, and I consider this issue resolved. The new ECU isn't perfectly silent, but it's good enough. I can hear the sound when the cabin is quiet, but even then it's pretty subtle. The other 99% of the time, I forget about it completely which wasn't possible previously. If I hadn't been so annoyed by the sound over the past couple weeks, I wouldn't be listening for it and probably would never notice.
Good luck Roo and anyone else who get's a bad one. Fortunately, it's an easy fix which only requires removing the glove box and programming the new ECU to work with your existing FOBs.
