So I'm planning on removing the manual transmission from my 78 240D this weekend, and am looking for an estimate. I've never messed with transmissions at all, so this will be chock full of firsts for me. How long do you think this should take me? Are there special tools needed? Maybe someone could provide a rundown of the basic steps I'll have to go through? Thanks for any info you have.
