Automatic transmission is something which is difficult to add-on, particularly in case of vehicles like omni, where the retrofit costs themselves turn out to be comparable with the entire vehicle cost.

There are no automatic in the car type like omni. The cheapest car where you get an automatic is probably Santro. And this stuff is not like add-on, where you can take manual off and put automatic in, as the transmission is mostly integrated in the engine block, thereby making it difficult to retrofit.

Why are you interested in converting omni to automatic? bumper to bumper traffic? You can probably alter your driving style to suit the traffic than go for something drastic like a transmission change. Let us know.

mhudda,

why dont you buy a new car with AT. Very well said by krishna its going to cost more than the cost of your Omni(if at all it can be done).

However, as you are from Delhi. please check www.autupsyche.com you might get your answere from them.

Not Advisable. Stay away from fitting automatic on your own. Company fitted is O.K
