affalterbach65 -> RE: swap auto tranny to standar gear (3/4/2006 1:15:45 PM)

dont take this to the bank, but im pretty sure they dont match. i know i couldnt use a 300e tranny when i had to swap the one in my 300d. different bell housings. plus, i believe that the diesel trannies are a bit beefed up to handle the extra torque. you may find that a 4 speed from a 240d works, but theres still the problem of fitting your car with all the proper equipment for the manual trans. for the trouble, id keep the tranny you have. i got over 420k out of mine, and i tore it down after i took it out and it turns out it was just fine, my problem was actually a vacuum modulator. $800 and 12 hours labor for a $40 part that took 10 mins to install and a little tinkering to adjust [:@]
