Does look nice & I would dearly love another one but only have a double garage if I could keep it under cover along with our other cars I'd snap it up.

Decent looking 3.9 MV6 coming up for auction. Nice little project for someone.
Cambelt, suspension etc.
End up with a very nice car for £3 - 4000.

Dropped off the iX at BMW Shrewsbury to have a few bits fettled. They gave me a very nice 530e M-Sport, which is light years ahead of the 1-series I was expecting 

They did also say it needs four new tyres - glad I won't be picking up the bill for that one 

I thought the ZF6 was an autobox?

Apparently the box in the title is a 6 speed spaniel.

Mechanical fitting aside, you would need somebody to map any TCM you can find that works on the ZF6 (the standard Omega one won't, as its for the 5 speed variant)

Does the Omega care what gear the manual is in

MAF on a V6 should read about 12kg/hr with A/C off, and 13-14kg/hr with A/C on.  2.0/2.2 will probably be around 1-2kg/ht less.

OBDII code readers aren't often successful on a 2.2, so you will need something a little more GM specific or upmarket.  If a given code reader reports in g/s, just use maths to convert to kh/hr

I had the same idea with my last 2.5 DTI, and everyone that I asked told me that it's not easily doable. There are some differences in bolt positions on bell housing as I remember. It's possible to adapt it but it's would not be cheap.
I now a guy that swapped 3.0 M57 from E38 730d in Omega, but with auto box, they do fit without problems.

Biggest question will be whether it fits in the tunnel
