I recently picked up a 300d auto. I really want a manual trans. Will the 240d trans bolt up to the 5cyc diesel and work? Or is there another trans that will?
also what is "MBZ 4spd manual transmission" ?

Search, there are multiple threads detailing the conversion process. Several people, including myself, have done it and enjoy it very much.

"MBZ 4spd manual transmission"
Is a Mercedes 4-speed manual transmission. What specifically are you referring to and what do you want to know about "MBZ 4spd manual transmission"?

Mbz stands for Mercedes! And yes, the 4-speed manual will bolt up to all the 4 & 5-cyl diesel engines......... C Jones

Four speeds are nice. Fives are better, but you better have some cash and speak Deutsch first
