Everything is more complicated with a tip.. Pulling the tranny is more difficult and while it's out the fluid should be changed if it has any decent mileage on the car.

Due to this the charges associated with a tip are very similar to that of a manual, tiptronic fluid isn't cheap and the added labor adds up to costs that can exceed that of a manual (at least when going all the way with a comprehensive service)
