M240i/M235i xDrive Manual Swap

Looked around quite a bit for someone thats swapped a manual tranny into their xdrive 2 series, cant find anything. Is it possible? Is it totally ridiculous? AWD clutch dumps are unmatched by anything

With enough $$$, just about anything is possible.

I think you'll quickly discover that it would way cheaper, easier, and more reliable to sell your 8AT car and buy a 6MT car, equipped that way from the factory.

To my knowledge currently the only set up with AWD and Manual Trans is the 440 model, you can start checking comparisons between the two drive trains. Then you'll have to figure out how to have the computer programmed, or swapped...? Way too much trouble if you ask me, lol.

Unfortunately, you can’t get a 2 series from the factory equipped with a 6MT and xDrive, and I really prefer the 2 series size and feel.

My guess would be a minimum of $15K. You can call around to get estimates. With this kind of modification, you'll need to ensure the shop is qualified to do the work.
