2002 P5
I just bought my p5 and it came auto...i was wondering if it would be a huge job to switch it over to a manual or if i am jsut better off to leave it a auto?
 
Yes it would be a huge job. Yes you would be better off if it was a manual....No, I wouldn't even bother....

its possible to do it. I would only consider doing it if you intend to keep the car until you die or the car dies. I did it and a few others have done it. its easier to sell the car and get a car with a manual.

Agree with this ,it isntr worth the effort to swap out an auto for astick . sell the auto and get a stick ,or just live with the auto

Agreed. The 2 cars are the same price retail, just find a dealership and trade the auto for a manual.
 
Oh,... tranny swap. Haha. I though it was going to be some disgusting new reality TV show. (first)
 
^hahahaha nice


but yea i considered doing this swap and after i read over the list of necessary parts, i really dont feel that its worth it. maybe someday if i have the money ill switch it over, but even then i dont think itll be worth it cuz im prob gonna get a different car after UTI next year
 
^youd have to find a tranny that would mount up, probably hard to find/do.

see if you can figure somethin out and post results if you find out anything
