Well nothing is going to happen for the swap for the next couple of days the fiancee left for Denver today. Maybe this weekend we can get it done. All we really have left is mount the tranny, the tranny mount, tranny cooler and dipstick. I think.. almost done.

ok so things didnt turn out as planned. the tranny that we were using that came out of my fiances car. dont work right. it wont shift into 3rd. got it tore down and some of the clutches are burn to beat hell. so time for a rebuild. i hope that this works, this is the 3rd time that the tranny has been in and out of the car trying to figure out what is wrong. not fun!!! and if this dont work have to get a different one. but oh well there is not a whole lot that we can do about it.

You haven't been on the board much then. Plenty of M6 to A4 (or other auto) swaps. Mainly done for racing reasons.

Guess what everyone my fiancee is the man. The rebuild for the tranny was a success. Just a little bit left. I can hardly contain my excitement....

U made the right choice.I have both my 02 SS a4/2010 SS m6 and i have just as much fun in my 02 as my 10 and the 02 can smoke the tires @ 40mph just just hitting the gas.When the M6 guys break and u leave them in the dsust then they will understand.

a performance car owner ditching the manual because its to much work to operate. to each their own. it's funny, my last car forum people were ditching the autos for manuals.


i would have thought you could have sold your m6ss for enough money to buy a nicely modded auto 4th gen.
