I know there are countless posts of potential solutions posted although can anyone direct me to a company that sells replacement bearings for a 2002 996 tiptronic transmission. I have exhausted all efforts in searching prior posts but all either have pictures missing or companies that are no longer in business. As multiple posts indicate there are no part numbers and I'm going in circles. There has to be some type of diagram out there for parts-


Currently have the transmission apart and need to find replacement bearings for the front of the tippy that are making a whining sound while driving. I will posts pics shorlty.


I thank you in advance for your replies

 

Which bearings? I have a nearly complete rebuild kit. Don't have new bearings but have good used ones.

 

here are pics of bearings and gearbox of my tiptronic transmission - any help is greatly appreciated- we are searching for replacement parts









Here is what the Transmission shop indicates:

The images show the radial scoring which would not cause noise. But if you look closely you will see pitting which will generate noise.

Aside from locating the bearings, my other concern is that tapered roller bearings normally need preload in this application. Without repair information I have no way of knowing if it is necessary and if it is, what the pre-load should be and if shims or spacers are available to adjust it.

And to clarify, we are working on the front of the trans or transfer section of the trans.

 

It's been awhile since I searched but I think I found those timken bearings on amazon even with simple part number search. Seems like they were $40-$50

 

I know thats a MB trans. Here is what a quick search turned up
