IV been reading that the manifolds sold everywhere for our 996's are for manuals. Any one know where I can get one for a tiptronic model.

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

According to the Porsche PET, the manifolds are the same for manual or tip - the only different manifolds are for 3.6 cars with the X51 power upgrade. There are also different part numbers for the 3.6 manifolds vs the 3.4.

Any manifold I tried to purchase when I confirm to them it's for a 3.6 tiptronic all they say is 'it won't work with your car' only works on manual

Have you tried ringing a Porsche Centre? They will confirm the manifolds are the same for manual or tip.
POST 5Original post
Was there ever clarity re the manifolds being different between tiptronics and manuals? I ask because i'm looking for a well priced stainless sports manifold for my 3.4 tiptronic.

I use this site to check for part numbers .. it only lists one type for each side .. https://www.deroure.com/diagrams.asp?TBL=2544&MAK=3&MDL=25&SMA=0&SMO=0&ST=&SC=0 Goto the folowing page for 3.6 and the other type is X51 upgrade .. not manual / tip .
