BRM with an 09G transmission?

[turbocharged798]

Looking at my Bentley and confirmed in real life, the 09G auto transmission that came with the 5 cylinder gasser MK5s has the perfect ratios for TDIs. Does any one know if it would work with a BRM? I know that it should bolt up as the bell housing is the same for 5 cylinder and TDI. Question is if the electronics would play nice and if the TCU can be retuned for TDI shift points.

If you have to ask why, its because 5-cyl MK5s are cheap and plentful and would make swapping a PD100 into them a piece of cake.

Thanks!

Get a MK5 TDI you'll love it

It would be interesting to compare the fuel economy of the DSG mk5 to the Auto Mk5, as well as the driving experience.

If you can find someone who does the tuning on the Aisin TCUs be sure to share with the rest of the class. I'd love to get some changes done on our Touareg.

fuel economy when I had the DSG it was 42 max, mostly hwy. After I converted to manual, 51 to 56 (depending on terrain) mostly hwy.
