if you use the petrol clutch disk, then it should (might need a 2h bellhousing and pressure plate, if all 12ht's are auto)

The gearboxes are the same, but the clutches are different. Don't use a petrol clutch plate on a diesel. Use a diesel clutch.

the petrol and diesel one i compared had different spline count on the input shaft, so needed the petrol clutch disk in the diesel pressure plate to work. ymmv
