The singular transmission mount bushing that's pressed into the trans bell housing is used on:
Leading evidence: 'Use on' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, the most frequently mentioned possible cause is 'middle choice' (1 discussions; 0 report identifying it and 1 suggest it). The most frequently discussed action is 'Set once i get a chance' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.
Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.

There is mis-information abound regarding the transmission mount styles used on the different models.

I will be purchasing a set of your mounts, probably the middle choice for use in DD/DE/AX.

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.

I purchased this:
Torque Solution Urethane Insert Transmission Mount
Applications: Porsche 996TT/GT2/GT3/C2 & GT3 Cup 997TT/GT2/GT3 & RS/C2/C4 and GT3 Cup
**Fits Manual & Automatic Tiptronic Transmission. Will not fit the PDK transmission.
It clearly states 996 C2 Manual Transmission. 1998-2011
Where is this located??
The bracket is the transmission mount itself. The insert is the plastic part. I just changed mine on the GT3 a couple weeks ago. It sits right in front of the transmission box in the center of the car.

I think that's the later type transmission mount , you might have the earlier type which was two pressed steel brackets , one is a plate with four bolt which bolts to the body and the other is like a cross brace that fits into it and bolts to the rubber mount on the end of the box.
+996 - what Alpine said.
The support you show is for the GT3 which is a different transmission. I don't know if it used in any other models but definitely not in a Mk1 or Mk2 C2 or C4.
If you have a C2/C4 996 you can use the Function First inserts to firm up a sagging transmission mount or even to make it firmer than standard. The other option is to punch/cut/mangle the old mount out of the transmission and press in a new mount.
Mk1 six speed manual. The big hole at the lower left is where the mount gets pressed in.
[QUOTE=alpine003;13273451]That's the turbo/tiptronic mount.
The one for your car is part of the tranny.
The black insert style above is what you want.[/QUOT
That is exactly what my transmission looks like.
I have been googling the torque solution part number.
Well, they have an error on their website.
You folks are correct, the mount I spent $400 on does not fit a 996 C2.
Needless to say, I will list it for sale in the next day or two.
Thanks for the help!
If you can't return that 996tt trans mount, let me know. I am replacing my engine mounts this week and may need a trans mount if my current one is shot.
There is mis-information abound regarding the transmission mount styles used on the different models. Here is a breakdown for the 2 styles of transmission bushings:
The singular transmission mount bushing that's pressed into the trans bell housing is used on:
996.1 Carrera (manual)
996.1 Carrera (tiptronic)
996.2 Carrera (manual)
The transmission mount carrier that uses 2 bushings and can be entirely removed from the car is used on:
996.2 Carrera (tiptronic)
996 Turbo
996 GT2
996 GT3
Thank you for your input.
I will be purchasing a set of your mounts, probably the middle choice for use in DD/DE/AX.
BTW, it took a few hours of Google searches to come up with the same information you have there in application list. Should have done more investigation before ordering.
