Could you send me your email? Let's get in touch. Originally posted by benjim View Post. This new switch also uses a different detent, spring and pin. That finalizes the transmission work!

Before we reinstall the transmission, we must remove the clutch and decide if it needs replacement, or a simple reset. Assembly from this point is the same as installing the regular six speed transmission. We install a new slave cylinder and line, then connect the new shifter. We reassemble the drive-line exhaust, heat shields and the remaining underbody. Different model years with different options require different wiring methods. By comparing wiring diagrams between SMG and 6 speed models, we would have the proper insight to know what is needed.

The same theory goes for coding the transmission since different BMW model years have different requirements. Log in Register. What's new.

Thread starter JsyM3 Start date Nov 15, JsyM3 Wearing official crakows Mar 31, 1, I What're you driving? What impact does this have on values compared to a factory manual or SMG, and anything else to be wary of or check?

Since the transmission will be removed this is also the perfect time to change out that worn out clutch and flywheel. In order for cruise control, PDC , and the reverse light to function the car must be wired and re-coded as a manual car. The clutch switch and brake switch must be installed and wired appropriately to retain the function of a true manual transmission E46 M3.

We also have a special tune for the SMG to Manual conversion, developed by Frank Smith, that adjusts the idle to the correct level and can be coupled with a performance tune upon request. You asked, we delivered! While we love tackling this project for our clients, we know that is not always an option because of time and distance.

Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions — otherwise, check it out on our store page. I have a E46 i, with an automatic transmission. I also have a ZHP E46 i, 6 speed manual transmission, doner car. How many hours of work am I looking at to do the swap?

Any ideas. Hi my shop recently had you all do the machine work on an smg bell housing. Thank you for the excellent workmanship, and quick turn around. The transmission now shifts perfectly, and the car is fun to drive again. Our customer was wanting to get the cruse control working now.

Hey Peter — thank you so much. Hey Howard, thank you for reaching out. We only provide this service on the E46 M3s. Hey I have a manual transmission that is giving me issues and need a new one.

As you may know, manual trannys are pretty expensive. Is it possible to pick up an smg tranny and just swap all the manual stuff except the meat or gears instead of shipping in the smg bell housing to machined?
