So I have been doing some research into this swap, i was curious whether or not someone on here has done this or might be able to advise me on what kind of trouble/hurdles I may have, what type of coding/programming I would have to do, etc.. i just did the mechatronix sleeve and additional seals, new pan n fluid and reset adaptions and I still have a little hesitation when high in tbe revs in third and forth, so might just be a slipping gear box. If im going to do alot of work to repair i mighg just get away from the troublesome auto box..

 

I just finished the swap on my 535xi wagon, i kept AWD, let me know what you need help with.
