Are you asking about manual shifting your automatic or swapping out an A4 for a M6?

Default auto to manual

Gene at the Gene'sKarshop.com is the person to talk to. I have thought about changing from an automatic to a 6 speed but a I am not sure yet. I have been looking in the neighbor hood of $2000.00 for the needed parts, plus the price of a new clutch then flywheel machine work and any labor you can't do yourself. This should give you a ball park idea. Hope this helps you some.

Trade in. $ depends on your will power and negotiating talents.
