Hello everyone

I have a 300tdi auto disco and am thinking about putting the engine and gearbox in my 90, anyone ever done it or can think of a reason not to?

gear sticks are in different places but apart from that a good idea, once put a 300tdi auto into a rrc, very good conversion. and welcome

do it.

i would go manual tho as the auto box aint great on mpg.

Cheers guys, i will give it a go once i have worked out how to keep the fluid in the power steering box and not all over the drive.

Answer to your question is no ECU involved.

It'll also be easier to swap your injection pump to a manual one if it's a edc one

gmne07966 · May 27, 2020

yup thanks for info this is what i planned to do ,does anyone have the wiring diagram for the box as i am sure there are 4 wires go to it one live one ground and not sure about rest lol any help would be cool also you need to chage the injectors if its edc as they run at higher pressure than 300 tdi's running standard pump

gmne07966 · May 27, 2020

hi ive got the cable that comes out of the box for the kick down just unsure about the electrical connections on the box i think one could be for speedo etc and maybe a live and a negative just more info about it would help me a lot
