2002 Porsche 996 3.6L N/A, automatic transmission...
So I'm checking around for best price for an auto trans filter, and I get drastically conflicting results from parts dealers.
Pelican and several others list one type of filter for the 2002-05 that is different from the 1999-01, BUT MANY other parts sites list THE SAME filter for all 996's 1999 - 05 (The AC Delco TF331)!
Physically, the two options look very different.
I have attached pics of each.
I contacted ******** (which shows the 1999-type also for the 2002-05 trannies) and they SWORE that theirs is correct. They stated that their records show that they sold over 150 of these filters for 2002 911's, and that they have not received ONE return for incorrect part.
What's the story??
This is the filter that Pelican says is only 1999-2001, but others say is for 1999-2005:
This is the filter that Pelican and a few others say is 2002-2005 (different from 1999-01 Tips):
