320d to 335i engine swap - StianGSi - 28-09-2017

Anyone done this swap before?

-Do you have to code the new DME with NCSexpert? Or can you do it with ISTA?

-The 320d has keyless go. Does this remain in function with the new DME, or does it need coding?

Thanks for answers smile

P.S.: If you think this is not possible/have other meanings about the build; Don't bother anwering. wink

Its cheaper to buy an other car with 335i i think

Need a DME. 320d has a DDE. Totally different. Need a different transmission. Need a different car. Not a plausible undertaking.

better try swap biturbo and injectors of 123d or 25d this swap is more realist

Swapping engines is a whole host of issues electrically with DME/CAS/EGS/ICM not to mention if this is diesel to gas the O2 sensors, Cat, and Exhaust are going to be different for the different fuel types. Much easier and cheaper timewise and price wise to buy a new car

There is also suspension - other weight of engine / car, it is different. Different breakes... no point of doing that.
