Looking for info on doing a manual swap on my auto 01 A6 2.7t I will have a donor car just looking for info and recom

mendations

 

Howdy. Saw this old post and wondered how your swap went. I have plans on tackling mine in the fall.
Cheers.

 

swap went good I have about 2k miles on the car since the swap

 

Nice work. What do you remember as the most challenging part of the process? When I manual swapped my mk4 golf tdi I found that re pinning the ecu was probably the most challenging. Any plans on other upgrades?

 

Everything seemed good wired up ecu for cruise and reverse lights and press clutch to start and pedal assemble swap was a bit of a pain but also not bad. I’m running a stage 2 tune right now and planing hoping to start gathering parts for full stage 3 I want to be at 450 - 500 hp and still be my daily also plan on 3” lift with hoping 31” tires going for a rally / safari build once drivetrain is done I’ll be doing bumper and lights then it’s getting a rally look wrap
