1994 BMW 325 6 cyl Two Wheel Drive Manual

Just wanted to know I plan on taking my manual tranny out and putting a automatic in I know most of the basics in swaping them out however I know the automatic tranny has a computer that hooks to it is there anything I may want to consider with this swap of transmissions will the computer adapt to my current electrical system any other changes that I may have to do. Your response is appreciated. :)

The engine/transmission wiring harness will be required from the donor car as will all the related electronics. Are you sure you want to take this on, it is more than you might think. Having done swaps on older BMW cars, and considering the year of the target vehicle, I personally would pass on that project. Just my opinion.
