I have searched the 996 forum to hopefully find a link to access a downloadable or viewable manual for a 1999 Carrera.
the old threads only contained out of date links to manuals. Is there a usable link to view a factory manual?
If so could someone please post the link. If not what is everyone using for reference material?
Thanks in Advance...

The reason you cannot find one to download or view is because they (the owners manual) are registered to Porsche, and I think it is illegal to copy it and make it available that way. You can buy an owners manual for $30 here https://www.suncoastparts.com/product/CARMANUALS.html?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIlPGrl-HN1wIVThuBCh2CkAsbEAQYASABEgI54PD_BwE
If you are looking for the service manual go buy it here https://www.amazon.com/Porsche-Carrera-Type-Service-Manual/dp/0837617103

Thanks to Joe aand C4911,
I have an owners manual. Should have stated service maual in my original querry.
Have known about the Bentley Manual as well. Was checking with the community before
spending the $154.
I guess I have missed the opportunity to get a Factory service manual & I don't want to spend
$2000 for the limited edition one.

There is also an outfit called alldatadiy that lists 1999 Porsche. I subscribe to them for our Mercedes ml 350, Subaru Outback, and Porsche C2. I bought a full set of factory manuals on eBay for the turbo.

The Bentley manuals are very good too.

You can find some of their videos online also if you search.

Hi Jumpy-I have a set of manuals that i am willing to sell. There are 17 volumes in all. However, I am leaving tomorrow Nov 23 and will not be back until April, so there is no time to box and ship them until April.
Let me know if you have any interest.
