Circuitry is missing from both that would make them compatible.
I can see the dropping the comms circuitry to the tranny from the manual version to save costs, but getting rid of an input buffer for the clutch switch on the Auto versions doesn't make much sense. <- literally pennies saved. but yeah, Landrover.Quote:

In an emergency the manual ECU will work in the Auto, one just needs to then change gears manually!
They will all work in an emergency!Quote:

You can add the clutch components to an auto spec, but the other way wouldn't be doable.
