That_Bimmer123 3 Report post Posted yesterday at 05:09 AM Hi all, I am Auckland based, a bit new to bmw's but not new to cars in general having owned countless vw/audi's have owned 3 bmws so far :). In the process of figuring out how to swap 6hp21 into a pre facelift e61 530i to make a perfect daily driver, so you will be seeing a lot more posts about it. My e61 shown below.

Driftit 2181 Report post Posted 23 hours ago (edited) Welcome. What box does it have in it at the moment. 6hp19? Or were the E6* unlucky enough to get the GM box like the 130's? Edit: ignore. Just saw your other post haha. Edited 23 hours ago by Driftit 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Driftit 2181 Report post Posted 23 hours ago Funnily enough I've had just as much trouble with 6hp19's as I have with the GMs. I've seen info for the 21 swap somewhere. Probably bimmerforums . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Probably bimmerforums . yes absolutlely same here! early 6hp19s are really crap. They improved a lot with the 6hp21/19z.
