Deano 1 Report post Posted April 13, 2009 The Jatco box is a bit sh*t when cold OK when warm. When its cold the change is erratic, over revs etc. Not sure if its worth fixing. What I was wondering if an E30 4HP22 trans will work with the M52? Just a thought. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Deano 1 Report post Posted April 13, 2009 (edited) Woof woof - at least put a decent auto in it if you have to saddle it with such a compromiseYou probably right..but I had an E30 325i auto that was so good...Would like to do a manual conversion but the boxes are rare and expensive Edited April 13, 2009 by Deano Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mark 178 Report post Posted April 13, 2009 Find a ZF auto box and chuck that in if you can't afford to go manual. You'll never fix a buggered Jatco... believe me I tried and I had a mechanical warranty so wasn't worried about cost. Over $2500 later and it still wasn't right.
