Interchanging radiators
Gday, I have a manual M20 525i, and the radiator just shat itself, as there are bugger all manual examples around, is it possible to put an auto radiator in there? From reading up on here it sounds as tho the trans cooler is in the radiator? Would this be a problem, or could the trans lines be blocked off?
Cheers

Why would that happen? It's not pressurized anymore because his car is a manual. Just slap it in and go for a ride.Originally Posted by Ferret

The remains will naturally run out over time and if they get caught in the air stream it'll look like a paintball fight...
Thanks for the help. Should make finding one a whole lot easier.

Just cap the places where the auto tranny hoses attach and don't worry about cleaning it out.
Other than that, it will work.
