    996 transmission

    anyone here have a 996 with tip that has over 100k miles, just asking because my trans went out and the dealer is charging me $10,000 for a new one. Does this sound about right miles and price, my car is at newport auto center and is a daily driver.

    You didn't say MY or whether your car is 2WD or 4WD. An exchange Tip transmision for a 2WD MY99-00 has a dealer retail price of $4241.85. So that sounds like a lot of labor!

    Re: 996 transmission

    My point was just that an exchange transmission for a MY99 Tip has an MSRP of only $4241.85. It only takes about an hour to remove and install - so $5000 should cover it easy. The current parts list only shows exchange transmissions for MY99 so I don't know where they got a new one. And, a new one is priced at $5839.99 retail. These prices are from the April US price list. Let the buyer beware I guess?

    Re: 996 transmission

    About $5000 sounds right, $10k and they are taking you to the cleaners. Check out www.phii.net for a lower cost option (rebuilding)
