    B5 tiptronic to 6speed swap

    Hello

    I own an 00' B5 A4 with 2.5TDi AFB engine.

    For now I have acquired:
    * FTL gearbox from 2002 C5 2.5TDi (3.889 drive)
    * DAJ rear diff (already there, 3.889 drive)
    * C5 shift linkage (seems like it's the same as B5 according to ETKA)

    I know that I have to change the pedals and front axle shafts. (both coming from B5 2.5TDi V6 speed FWD, ETKA says that they're the same)

    Read from somewhere that I have to change the gearbox 01E prop shaft flange (01E 108mm vs 01V 100mm), but I tried an tiptronic prop shaft on my gearbox and fits there without any problems.

    Does somebody know, can I use the C5 shift linkage and B5 V6 auto. subframe?
    Also can somebody tell me, how long is the difference between automatic and 01E prop. shaft?
Working...
