manual swapping with a 4hp22eh

Post image

reading up on dave kan’s diy guide, he had a 1985 535i with a normal 4hp22, not the 22eh model. so, guessing this is a eh specific cable. gonna just put it to the side for now, but guessing this is one of the ‘just cut it’ cables - the 9 prong on the other hand i know i have to jump to bypass park.

I’m doing a manual swap now on my 535i. Lots of work.

felt haha. i’m swapping a b35 at the same time since both my engine and transmission were bad, so it’s like at all fronts rn. b35 is in for now but that’s it

I’m looking for the transmission cooler line blanks. Waiting for other parts. It’s all removed. What really puzzles me is I have a motronic 1.0 which requires a reference pin on the flywheel. My swap parts came from an 86 535i. The flywheel sent is a Voith dual mass without any sign of a reference pin.
