Hi all

I have a 2005 1.5 dci 100 (as it says in my sig) so I just missed out on a 6 speed box.

I do ponder though whether a later 6 speed would fit straight onto a 5 speed engine? hmmmmm :?:

I do a lot of motorway driving so lowering the revs a touch would be great!

Has anyone done this or heard of someone doing it?

Anthony.

whole linkages right up through the ca has to be ripped out dash gone also the gear stick has to be changed the gear box itself is a straight fit though just the arsing about is the killer if your the ££'S go for it, also you'd need to retax the car as a 6speed and let your insurance know .. also it may increase your insurance as being classed as an engine modifcation

Yeah I thought it wouldn't be straight forward, being French and all. Oh well!

Cheers for the reply
