madeupemailaddress 0 Report post Posted August 21, 2017 Hey guys, I have an auto 1995 320i running a M52B20, single VANOS. My trans is buggered. The first gear change jolts so bad my head nearly snaps off. Every other gear change after that is fine-ish. If I floor it, the gear change is not as jolty but there is a massive squealing noise. I have been looking for 2nd-hand transmissions in my local area but they ones that come up for sale are usually ZF and not Jatco. My questions are: What is the difference between the two in terms of swapping one for the other? Can I rip out my faulty Jatco and bolt in a ZF trans? Thanks, any help is appreciated.
