Am I reading correctly that the value of a single wire within the harness is valued at $802? I'd be contesting that. That's just straight up highway robbery, or someone messed up the paperwork declaring what was in the package.

Well, that seems right. The diff doesn't even have a drain hole, luckily the transmission does.

Domestics were way ahead on that one, apparently they've been making disposable stuff since forever.

F30s are repairable? I thought all of the repair trees on modern BMWs were designed to lead to buying a new BMW if there is an issue?

So no one here has dealt with repairing a 6mt out of an f30 335i?

Too young to be a R3V OG. Too old to get TikTok famous boofing ZYNs.

Just the right age to fuck around with my shit box cars, and spew bullshit to old heads on an outdated car forum.

Everyone needs to be MODed especially if you're still a regular poster. R3V OG is such a boomer thing to have...

Really?!?!? I've been shit posting for months to get to 5000 and now post count is meaningless??!?!?!

Do any of you have experience with the 6mt (GS6-45BZ) in an f30 335i? My 2nd gear syncro is crunchy, so 1-2 and 3-2 shifts grind. I changed the fluid to Redline MTL and it's a little better, but still needs to be babied to avoid grinding.

I've ready that there isn't a fix or a rebuild kit, the only solution is to replace the whole unit. I assume any replacement unit will eventually grind as well. It looks like Bristol Transmissions used to sell a rebuild kit, but stopped due to manufacturing issues. Someone on FB marketplace is selling one of the kits for $1k.

I've read about swapping in a GS6-53BZ from an e9x 335i. It's a stronger box, but you lose electronics for hill start and whatnot. I'm fine with some bolt-ons and a tune for this car, but I don't want to mess with it too much because its a reliable DD.

Are there any other options for fixing the stock box?

Oh yeah, well what does it spell backwards?
