DSG transmission
Anybody ever swapped a tranny on a 335i for the seven speed tranny on the 335is?

The only time I could see a reason for changing the transmission for another one is if you have an automatic that broke and can't handle the power and you swap in a manual.
You would be better off trading in your car for a DCT equipped one with the cost of the unit and labor. |

I'd rather swap for a 6-speed manual than to put in another AT. If I would have known what I do now, I would have told my wife to "shut it, I'm getting a manny."

My first e92 335i was a manual. Now I have automatic, changed my wheel for an M wheel with dct paddles. Just thought down the road, if the tranny ever goes bad it might be fun to put the 7-speed tranny from the 335is.

You must not be married. Letting her not have a say is a bad idea. Happy wife = happy life.

On our wedding night I took off my pants and handed them to my new bride and said 'put these on', she looked shocked and said 'i'll never fit your pants', to which I replied that's right I wear the pants in this relationship. she thought for a minute and took off her panties and handed them to me and said 'try these on', I laughed and said 'I'm never getting into those'. She just looked at me and I got the point
