LT: S-tronic DL501 replacement to ZF 8HP?
hi everyone ,
i,m wondering is it possible to change my original S6 C7 Gearbox to RS6 C7 ZF8 HP gearbox
i din,t find any information about this ,has anyone swapped it ?,how difficult it is ?,wich parts needed to be changed,without gearbox
i,m thinking about this swap because i,m in stock and planning to go for stage 2 ,but my clutch in gearbox allready is needed to change ,audi dealer says that maby not only clutch is needed to replace ,i will be appreciate of any info

Anything is possible with unlimited time and money. However I don't recall seeing anyone attempt this. The harder parts might be software and electrical incompatibilities. I think it usually ends up being cheaper and easier to sell the S6 and buy an RS6 or RS7. Understandably neither is a sedan and perhaps where you are located it is inexpensive to acquire an RS6 transmission I don't know, but I can only assume it is not for the faint of heart.

RS Gearbox with low mileage its not so expensive ,its cost about 1500 eur , my clutch replacement with all spare parts at the audi dealer costs about 2000-2200 eur (this is only clutch wthout mechatronic ),RS6 Engine block is the same as S6,so mechanicaly it must be bolt on ,the only question is with wiring and software compatibility ,i allready have installed TurboSystems hybrid turbos ,and am afraid that my original gearbox won,t handle this
