E36 5-Speed Auto

[WilsonTHarv]

Hi , which model of E36 comes with 5-Speed auto trannies ? I have search up & down on mudah about 325 & 328 all of them seems came with 4-Speed auto tranny "the mark at gear selector there is PRND321 instead of PRND432" .

Seems like only Japan spec had this , CKD model seems all are with 4-Speed , I once drove my friend Japan spec E36 came stock with ASC & 5-Speed tranny .

In case of anyone had a 325 or 328 with 5-Speed auto for sale can contact me at +6017-262 1328 .

5speed autoboxes are commonly found in E36 cabriolet models. as for sedans, they're fitted in the final year production of the 6 cylinder models.

Thanks for the info .

So e36 from which year should i look ?

I have view few e36's and mostly the condition are not in satisfactory a state but none of them have asc & 5speed auto , the newest one is manufactured on 1997 CKD

Is it hard to convert from 4 speed to 5 speed box ? How much does it roughly cost ?

Thanks for the info .

to convert a 4 sp to 5sp ..ya may need to find the autobox and the control module and wiring...

as for cost wise if may set you around rm3K to 5K ...complete

My son's e36 325i cbu was built in 1991 n has a 5speed auto gb.
Nicer n smoother gear changes compared to d 4speed.
