It turns out Porsche has replaced the original 996.1 hose with a new version that was not compatible with the black hard pipe of the early cars

let me know there is a new hard pipe that must be used when using this newer 3 way hose.

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.

4 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I bought a 996.1 car that recently had the 3 way hose replaced with a factory part. The problem was it was touching the engine. It turns out Porsche has replaced the original 996.1 hose with a new version that was not compatible with the black hard pipe of the early cars @Porschetech3 let me know there is a new hard pipe that must be used when using this newer 3 way hose. 3 way hose: 996-106-850-05 hard pipe: 996-106-243-54 The new pipe allows the .2 hose to fit perfectly

POST 2Original post

From Pelican Parts comments... 996-106-243-54-OEM "I ordered hose 996-106-850-05 as it looked identical to the hose in my car five bends and two extra tees off to the side. It was listed for my 1999 Porsche 911 coupe but it doesn't fit. On removal, my hose says 996.106.250.53-2. I chatted with a sales rep and he told me that another part is required. Make sure you also purchase 996-106-243-54-OEM so that the tee in the lower section works." Good luck!

POST 3Original post

@frisbee91 had a good post about this. You can tell the new vs old hard pipe by the u shaped bend (old) vs more gradual bend in the new pipe. https://rennlist.com/forums/996-foru...esn-t-fit.html post #7 shows the 2 hard pipes compared to each other. @SoCal911t also has a good pic on post #6 here: https://rennlist.com/forums/996-foru...t-fitment.html

POST 4Original post

When I replaced my coolant reservoir I also replaced this hose since the 3 way was partially melted.
