Vin numbers
What does the numbers in the vin stand for. Can someone break it down so it makes sence?
cheers
Vehicle Identification Number.
Unique number for each car. In our case it only applies to the chassis not the body.
The numbers indicate the build date. Do a google search for specifics. been raised on this forum a lot of times
vin numbers apart from individually id'ing a car also tell you specifics (most of the time) like body type, engine size, what series, year and so
on....
it is different for each manufacturer...
with mazda (for whom i do parts) i can tell engine size and occasionally wheel bases and carrying capacity by just looking at a vin but if i punch the
number into my computer it tells me everything! colours, trim types, bla bla bla...
hope that helps
oh, and if your talkin VW then someone has a list or program on here with which you can figure out what your vin means...
vwfool's website has a vin deciphering thingy.
