Is it possible to fit the manual gearbox, clutch and pedal from a 1999 2.5TDi (BMW engine) to a 2001 2.6 auto?
What other bits and bobs will be required?
TIA! ;)

As per guide by "Matchless"
Gearbox with rear cross-member and exhaust support
Differential (not essential---work out the ratios)
Front propshaft section (with vibration damper if present)
Clutch cover and driven plate
Flywheel and bolts
Clutch master cylinder and clutch pedal assy. Do not shorten the feed pipe from reservoir….you need every mm.
Plastic clip securing clutch pipe union to bulkhead
Brake pedal. Note only the pedal is needed, just push out the pivot pin.
Gear lever assy (drill off the rivet heads)
Piece of plastic trim just behind gear lever
Clutch pedal switch (will be on pedal assy if donor has cruise, get connector and wire)
Brake pedal switch and connector (not needed if car already has cruise 4-pin switch)
Section of gearbox/lambda sensor wiring loom

bellhousing bolt pattern is different to the petrol engine,
not sure about the actual clutch i think its the same as the 3 litre fits the td, however pretty sure the pressure plate has different bolt hole spacing, pedal assembly should be the same,
as to the rest of parts required read above,
to summarise Pete you are better off getting a petrol box a petrol flywheel etc the TD one will probably cause you endless grief trying to make it fit,

the bellhousing bolt pattern from the BMW diesel is the only one in Omega B which won't fit. Any other petrol or diesel can be made to work.
