2.0 box in a 2.6??

jamesfuller · 04-02-16, 07:24 PM

Would this autobox from a 2.0 8v 80 fit a 2.6?

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2220075455...d=977167798313

I'm sure its valved different etc, but I just want to know if they all share the same fixing points on the engine, box mounts and driveshafts?

Basically, if it fits in the whole and makes the car drive back and forwards Il be over the moon. Not worried about shift points etc as I just really need the car on the road. Can always get the right 2.6 box when one appears and make the change at a later date if you know what I mean.

The CBT code is only listed for the coupe http://audi.7zap.com/en/rdw/audi+coupe/aco/1994-142/3/ not the 80 http://audi.7zap.com/en/rdw/audi+80+...80/1994-150/3/ so it probably won't work with your ecu anyway (no sport button).

Oh bugger. The search continues.

And cheers Mark, never thought of the S2 Forum.

The search is not going well!

If I found a V6 auto box in say, a coupe or cab with no sport button, this box wont work with the cars ecu. Can I swap ecu's? Is there a separate wiring loom? Just not have the use of the button. Or will I have engine ecu problems if I try and go this route.

Any ideas welcomed!
