535er 0 Report post Posted July 6, 2008 Hi all Scored a manual conversion for my 535. What do I have to look out for when doing it? Especially since the manuals don't require the computer like the trans do, also any other things to look out for would be handy to know. Cheers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
