Default C5 upgrade to C6 Paddle shift

Is this even possible
Does the C6 trans fit in a C5
I was just thinking of adding a clutchless shifter option

The A4 in the C5 is already a clutchless shifter option. The C6 paddle option is on a 6 speed automatic transmission. Neither the paddle shifter nor the A4 use a clutch, so I'm not sure what you're going from and to.

[QUOTE=8VETTE7;1586813441]Seems like lots of nubies ask this question and the answer is still the same. with enough money you can accomplish just about anything but in this case benefits and cost are wide apart.

Search would bring up LOTS of threads about this if you learn how to use it.

Here is a start for you:

You can change gears at will on a paddle not an auto
