Hi guys, my old 3L TE manual wagon has done 425k and is due for retirement.....I purchased an 04 TL vr auto wagon about a year ago and I wondered if the manual box from the TE would swap easily?.....the manual box still works well but the fact it's done such high ks is of concern.....I would also change the clutch if I did this......any thoughts?

Will work fine, you need to do a little wiring to make the speedo and crusie work other than that is pretty much bolt in provided you have all the bits from the donor car

The intermediate drive shaft will need the carrier swapped from the 3.5l auto to the 3.0l manual intermediate shaft
