Insure a tiptronic as a manual or auto?

I've just noticed my insurance company have got my 987 tiptronic insured as a manual transmission car. When I enter my reg number into a website which brings up your cars details like confused.com or a tyre website all the other details are correct but it's always listed as a Boxster manual. So should it be insured as a manual or should I call them and say it's an auto? But then you do kind of change gear yourself if you're in tip mode.
 
Well it wouldn't be the first time that their systems hold wrong data. I've got a car that kept coming up as a 1.8 engine. It's actually a 2.0 turbo. They appreciated the fact that I corrected them and they updated the system.

So, I would tell them that they've got it wrong and get it changed to an AUTO.
