UUC EVO3 SSK and DSSR

gogunbaba · 03-24-2013, 05:28 PM

I recently purchased both items. I read both of the UUC SSK DIY that I found on the DIY section. I took everything apart yesterday to do the installation. Everything seemed pretty straight forward as far as the short shifter install. However, I couldn't figure out if it would be possible to install the DSSR without removing the driveshaft. Has anyone done the DSSR install? Is it possible to do it without removing the driveshaft? Do you know if I can find any online instructions for 335i (I found bunch for other BMW models)

Thanks,

I can't speak for the E90's but on my E46 you didn't need to remove the driveshaft. It would have probably made the job easier but you could just reach up and try to 'feel' what you are doing. It was tricky but eventually I got the DSSR in.

Hopefully this helps.
