Quick question i have paddle shift on the 335D but i hate how it is set up, is it possible to re wire the paddles so that one paddle changes up and one changes down?

[Dr Dave]

Try a search Andy it's been done to death on here.

yes its possible, look on the yank forum under cosmetics or google paddleshift e92, i have just changed mine to the later lci paddles and they shift down on the left and up on the right, much nicer paddles too

i did it on my 335d and it makes it SO MUCH more driveable....................


just need to swap a couple of wires under the airbag and voila............ M3 style shifters..........!

Hi Mate, would you mind if i pick your brains for more info when i get round to doing it?

As far as i can tell the + and - wires on each side have to be spliced together into the + terminal on the right and - terminal on the left?

Thanks

Andy

Freak - it is set up perfectly

Personally any sort of paddles or sequential gear lever needs to be push to change down (when your weight will be moving forwards anyway in hard driving) and pull to change up (vice versa). Can't bear it any other way... I suppose I am coming at it from a track driving perspective, but it stuck. One race car did have a sequential box and I loved it (set up this way) - some people had them the other way. Weirdos.

We should have a poll - am interested to see how many other freaks there are, I have always wondered why the hell people would want it any other way

+2 - and you can easily drive one handed, I have always found driving with 2 hands to be so over rated.

+3 ILLOGICAL CONVERSION.

[acerboo]

as i said have converted mine, not only do the lci padles work more positively but having used the pull/pull i now prefer them, talking of being illogical has anyone seen the boxster paddles?

that'll be why so many people have done it then..............


with the standard setting - i was forever pressing it the wrong way

then i went on the M3 experience at Oulton - in the DCT M3's

one for +, and one for - never made a wrong shift in the M3

so day after, i changed my 335d's over and was happily ever after!!!


to the OP - if you search on here(including US threads) theres a thread that tells you exactly what to do.............. its a year since i did it and i've forgotten exactly what to do
