I have just completed my 2JZGTE/ With Auto Tranny swap into a BMW 318I and for the most part it is rummy ok. I have a few bugs. The tranny gives a hard shock whenever it is shifted into drive or reverse. Make a very uncomfortable ride. I have New Tranny fluid and clean filter. Read the repair manual and it is suggesting that the #4 solenoid might not be sensing the info from the Vehicle speed sensor. Does this sound plausible?
Here is a little vid, where u might be able to see the sudden torque application when the gear is selected

Are you the dude from bimmerforums.com? :) Pretty sweet swap, man. (And you won't find anyone here to tell you it was pointless!)

Oh wow, I remember seeing someone's thread on doing this swap a long time ago. Glad to see you got it finished!

Sounds like a pretty cool car is it an E36 or E30 I cant view the vid . Post some pics....and take the tranny out and convert it to a built TH400 if you have to have an auto
