The 6 speed wont bolt up to your engine, the bolt pattern is different. It's the m103 that shares it's bolt pattern with the om6xx engines.

If you really want the 6 speed, cut the bellhousing off and weld your old one to it.

Easiest way to tune the 1.5 is to swap it for the 1.7td, fairly easy to do.

In that case the only thing to do is drill the barrel, and remove it's guts.

Shock's can be changed without removing the springs. Front's: Put an axle stand under the wishbone just inside of the ball joint, and lower the car on to it just enough to compress the spring a few inch's or so. Then change the shocks. The spring is held in place by the weight of the car, as long as you don't allow the spring to expand it is safe.

Rear: support the car on axle stands, and put a trolley jack under the lower arm at the inner end (remove the dust shield first). Undo and remove the bolt at the inner end, then just lower the jack gently and you can change the spring.

The heater control fault will be self explanatory when removed.

To remove the ignition barrel turn it to position 1 (it will turn eventfully), and push some thick wire into the 2 holes on the face as far as you can. Then pull it out by the key.

The viscous coupling has 3 10mm, or 3 hex headed bolts holding the fan to it. Then a large hex bolt to remove the viscous itself. 15 mins max.

Do you know the part number? I might have one here.

Just a thought, your propshaft and gearbox are both level to each other? If they aren't it will kill any flexdisc quickly.

Thanks dude, mk 2?

I remember reading somewhere that a bmw m20 flywheel fitted.

Epic, I love it!
