Coding for auto to manual trans swap

Cosmos99 · 08-03-2022, 09:54 AM

So my shop has gotten all the physical part of the swap done and it starts and runs. His INPA is having an issue coding right now ( not just on my car but others and he is going to do a reset soon ) He does however have Bimmergeeks ProTool also. Does anyone know if you can program the car to recognize the manual transmission via Protools?

Thanks !

What was the coding steps for bimmergeeks protool.
Also did you have any issues after the swap or anything stoped working

We're you able to get everything coded just from the app? Care to share any details of how this worked out?

I do not recall the full steps. My friend Mike at Nordkuste did the work. It's been running flawlessly like OEM. Mike is the best he got it coded perfectly. I put 2500 miles on it before putting it away for the winter.

I don't have the full details. Mike at Nordkuste Performance in OH who is a friend of mine did the swap for me. The car runs 100% OEM. I am loving it.

Hey Cosmos, this is very interesting to me and something I'd like to do to my 128i down the road. How was shopping around for a manual trans? What was the hardest part out of everything? Total price?
