Good work! I’ve been looking for somebody who’s actually working on the exact same swap for 4 years. I have 114i f21 manual gear, will the manual gear that comes with 114i fit on the n55 engine? And what do i need to swap the engine only, thanks man for the videos 🫡

Thnx for the comment. I didn't research the manual option that much as I wanted a ZF for a daily, but from prop shaft back you should be good. Half shafts are a bit thinner though, so might fail at some point. As for the engine, you'll need all the cooling hoses including ones that go to the interior heater. Only aircon line you can reuse is the one going from firewall to the front, other 2 also need to be changed. Fuel lines from the tank forward are on different side, so you'll need to swap them over and that means dropping down the tank. Fuel pump is also different part number, so best to change that too. Once you did all that there is wiring - most of the engine loom is self contained, but there are few jacks that connect to the rest of the harness, you'll have to figure that out. And last but not least, there is coding, getting all that to communicate as it should will be a pain for sure...

Hi there, great video. Do i need to order replacement clips or anything or can i use or the old clips and screws for the replacement side skirt?
@mattwillow78 ай бұрын
No need for clips and screws, but you do need rear retainers ( mounts ), if you keep non M ones you can't get it to align as it should. Also, you can't buy these new ( you can as a set, probably expensive ) so it's a bit of a pain to get them.

Hi! Could you send me a link of the side guides/ brackets that you installed? Planning on doing the same swap, but unfortunately its a fortune to buy them directly from BMW.

Side skirts are a bit different f20 to f21, but everything else is more or less the same
