auto to 6 speed swap,,,whats involved?
As far as the computer tune is concerned,,,what has to be changed to facilitate the swap from a 4L60E to a 6 speed? I am using HP tuner and I am just curious how involved the computer end of this swap is. Larry.

No idea. But I would think it would be easier to sell your car and get a six speed car.

No it wouldn't,,,I have an SS vert in dark blue,,,I would hate to search for an identical car in a 6 speed. Besides, I am not contemplating this swap but thought it would be a viable option if this auto ever bit the dust. Since I already have HPtuner it's just the mechanicals I would have to conquer,,,and was wondering what is involved on the tune side of things.

You shouldn't have to do anything more than maybe delete a code or 2. Its if you go the other way (m6 to a4) that you might have to reconfigure some stuff. I wouldn't pay for a full tune to do this, just find someone around town who has hptuners or something, its not that hard.

I highly recommend the full swap out on tunes with a 6 speed car tune. I did the swap on an LT1 car, and it did weird things until I just did a full tune swap instead of modifying my A4 tune.
