DCT

Anybody here experienced with DCT conversion on F chassis N55?

I've got some enthusiasm and familiarity with general concepts regarding this and would love to make it happen.

Thanks

The DCT on my N55 135i was garbage, the 8AT on my 440i is way superior in drivability.

I would think finding a way to put in an 8HP70 would be a much better prospect than a DCT.

Very! But keep in mind, the 2 series is smaller than the E90/92 series.
