This may sound insane, but is there any way to convert a 6MT JSW to DSG? I think I read a thread where someone actually did the opposite and was wondering if this is possible/practical or not to do this in reverse (assuming, of course, that "practical" is likely out of the question).
Here's my dilemma...
I LOVE to drive MT's. My wife, however, is not adept at driving anything but auto. I thought we had an understanding that she would brush up and/or learn, but it doesn't look like that is going to happen anytime soon.
Now, ... I traded a seven seater Mazda CUV in on the JSW, thinking our days of people hauling were coming to a close as the kids are getting older. Well, we actually have an even greater need now, with a sudden influx of taxiing the entire neighborhood and extended family all over the place. I'm thinking something like a Routan, used and cheap, would fit the bill.
We also have a gently used '07 B6 Passat wagon. Her car. She does not want to part with it because she can't drive the 6MT JSW, she loves the B6 AND she doesn't want to drive a Minivan to work and park it in a tiny parking garage (understandable).
So, to get another "people mover" I need to either:
1) Trade the JSW (obvously NOT happening)
or...
2) ...somehow covert to DSG and trade the B6 in
or...
3) ...trade 6MT JSW for DSG JSW and trade B6 in.
Suggestions?
