Hi iX gurus, I don't have an iX but my i motor is on its way out the door to car-part heaven. There's a guy locally selling a 325iX m20 complete with auto trans and transfer case for a really good deal.
My question to you all is: can I simply swap the motors and the oilpans and have it work? I think the iX has the front axles and diff going through the oilpan but not the block... can I simply swap the two pans and put the motor in my car? Or is the iX front drivetrain? going to be too much of a hassle/impossibility? If not, how much can I expect to be able to sell/part out the motor/trans/transfer case? The parts have 140k and supposedly ran well until the owner rolled the car.
Thanks!
