SMG M3 EVO Problems!!! E36 1998

[m3f_FSUhorizon]

Hello, I am about to make the conversion but I can not find the parts with this code: Repair kit, bearing 23117542726



I have looked at Realoem and bmwfans but I have not found anything. If I'm going to BMW I find it?

Your BMW dealer can find it. Try searching that part number here:

Ooook thanks for links, I updated my post



REPAIR KIT BEARING 23117542726 is all parties that I seek (in pictures)?

[m3f_KnudsonsM3]

I've had issues with mine. The solution is to convert it to manual. I've estimated that the total cost should be about $1,000.00 USD. The parts are approximately $400.00. The labor should be about six hours.



If you want details, let me know. I have a nearly complete parts list and can go into exactly what needs to be done. Mine should be converted in the next month or so.

dooowit sooooon man....





Did joo get my email man?

That's the only answer worth consideration.

....I have already taken action to buy this part: 1,2,3,4,5,6,16 (Click here)

but where I find these parts (look image below)? The 2 and 3 (look image below) are already mounted on my gearbox? And other???







thanks for any reply

Parts 2 and 3 may be on your transmission already, as you say. I reread one of the threads that I based my parts list from and one person states that some parts may not be needed.



However, I would buy them anyway. They aren't expensive and the parts may vary between the SMG and fully manual versions of the gearbox.

Ok, I buy all part and then post here the picture

[m3f_M3MotorsportITA]

Well i finally found a mechanic that will do the work for me , an he says it should work out fine...

The way it bascially looks is an manual gearbox with all the SMG **** bolted onto the side of it....

I have all my parts got thanks to FSUhorizon



So work should be commencing soon!!!

2. Cruise control clutch switch must be connected for vehicles with cruise control.



3. Unplug fuse 28-SMG supply. Do not unplug the SMG control unit. The vehicle will not start. This info has been posted identifying two different fuses: 2 fuses: #111 and #26, one is on the fusebox, other is behind the smg pump. I do not know which is correct.



4. Unplug the connections to the SMG display on the back of the instrument cluster Optional: the cluster SMG display can be converted to an oil temperature display.



5. Optional: the smg display area in the center console can be changed to a storage pocket. Part number for the storage pocket : 51161977231

Hello mate would this conversion work on a e46 330ci????

[m3f_EmDeeAr]

Jesus balls thread revival.

[m3f_white-hot]

Actually, that is nothing. There was a 7 year revival a couple months ago, and on BF.c I saw a 10 year revival once. This one is actually a bit weak.

[m3f_E30///M3FANATIC]

The solution to all your problems....get a fukkin stick.

[m3f_haks]

Thanks guys for letting me know that I have brought back the dead but can a e46 with a ssg gearbox be converted to normal manual
