Have you checked the expiration date on your OEM tire sealant?

@991.1 Thank you for posting this as I was contemplating the 700ml bottle as well. Looks like it fits. Is that bottle a soft squeezable bottle like the OEM? Or is it a hard plastic bottle?

Just a clarification: my 2016 GTS is a 991.1. I think wide body cars like the GTS and the C4 use this type of holder, which may not accommodate the taller 700 ml replacement bottle.

For many of you cheap bastards, one of the main reasons for replacing that OEM tire sealant on a regular basis is the risk of the product self activating in the bottle and creating a huge mess in your 'frunk' area. Do some searches on line and you will see what I mean. It is really touch to clean up from such a happening!!!

Ill have to call but highly suspect that the only available option is the 700ml now, even Suncoast says "Current version shown, but these are updated often. This current version comes in VW AG packaging, a Porsche part but updated labeling.". The 700ml will not work with 991.2's holder, from everything else I can find the 600ml version has been discontinued.

Also, my original OEM sealant that was included in the vehicle was labeled VW AG so it seems Porsche hasn’t been using a Porsche branded sealant since at least as far back as 2017.

@smgkc - It appears based on the photo posted above by @991.1 That the 700ml does fit. Even though his screen name suggests 991.1, that compartment looks the same as mine (991.2).

I googled the model number and had only like one hit in stock which is making me feel more assured of my it’s discontinued theory.

I spoke with a dealer today and they confirmed this is the new part number and went back and phsycially put their hands on a unit and it was 600ml, im thinking that this is now only being produced for VW/Porsche in the 600ml size and the OEM brand is 700ml. Below is a link to it.
