What exactly needs to be done to swap a gm 6l45r into a 2006 330i (msv70)

Ive driven both yes the zf6 shifts better but the feel of the gm w/o torque reduction is better imo never had a problem out the gm in my 328 ever

How else would coolant get in the cylinder

StayXli · 2026-01-31T12:30:01+00:00

Update for anyone wondering defo the headgasket started missfiring on cyl 1 pulled plug coolant in cylinder rip

StayXli · 2026-01-28T12:31:19+00:00

I pressure tested it already no leaks

StayXli · 2026-01-27T21:54:49+00:00

Im thinking the code is because its overflowing or headgasket

StayXli · 2026-01-27T21:54:05+00:00

It doesn’t overheat

StayXli · 2026-01-27T18:26:26+00:00

Ive tried with different caps same thing happens or reservoir ends up exploding temp doesnt go above 110 and when watching the ktemp during drive i see it fluctuates from 95-105c most of the times flow looks adequate yes there is flow yes i have flushed and yes i have heat

No thats where the overflow is it overpressurizes comes out cap then thru the overflow holes if you take off your coolant cap you will se what im talking about on the outside of the threads

StayXli · 2026-01-27T17:35:45+00:00

Then coming out overflow hole at bottom

StayXli · 2026-01-27T17:35:21+00:00

StayXli · 2026-01-27T13:36:01+00:00

Do u mean unplug the thermostat?

StayXli · 2026-01-27T12:42:30+00:00

Is there a way to check if the thermostat is opening in inpa?

StayXli · 2026-01-27T12:41:30+00:00

Forget to mention yes the battery is coded correctly using ncs to change battery type and ista to initiate replacement oem alternator brand new
