    At to MT swap??

    Heyy y’all, I have a 2004 330ci and I’m looking to swap it to manual. What am I looking for? What can bolt on from other models? Swap kits? Experience? Advice? Anything is helpful!!

    Go to E46Fanatics and search there. It’s a fairly involved swap as the engine computer gas to be informed that the car now has a manual transmission. Also, some folks swap in a 6 speed versus the 5 speed transmission. Be advised that you’ll need a different drive shaft as the driveshaft for the automatic transmission is too short (long?). Also, check lnthe flange at the input to the differential as it may be different. A great place to buy a rebuilt driveshaft is http://www.driveshaftspecialist.com/. A friend of mine, a top notch BMW tech swears by this company.
