    Default Change valve body: 1992 525iT

    How difficult is this? I have read about many guys with 530i and 540i autos changing them and it being very simple. Anybody recommend a place to pick one up? Any tips from people who have done it?

    All you need is LOVE. Takes a little while, but not too bad. Unfortunately for me I ended up getting a new transmission anyway.

    Excellent write-up!

    I plan on fixing the trans out of a calypso touring I hope to pick up and put in the black one I have now as I plan on selling it to my little sister. The calypso is getting a five speed
