Re: ARTICLE: Find your car's date of manufacture (VIN)

My INdia VW GT TSI (2016) has a VIN number that has a Zero in the 8th & 12th characters. When I try to give that VIN on the VW site it also reports that my VIN number is not a recognizable Volkswagen VIN.

However I find a note on their site that says that they do not use not use the letters “O,” “I,” or “Q.”

I wonder if this is specific to any region. Would someone be able to help clarify?

Here is a link where I found this

Re: ARTICLE: Find your car's date of manufacture (VIN)

Hello Everyone,

May someone please decode the VIN MA3FNEB1S00161342 for S Cross; the SA has communicated the same to me and is sure that this is the complete VIN.

I hope this helps. But then, it reports that the 10th digit (year) is not decipherable.

In mine, G denotes July and H - 2017. What are the 18th and 19th digits of your VIN ?

Based on the link above, if "H" is the 11th character, then the year of manufacture is 2017 and the month of manufacture is July.

Sir, the VIN will be 19 characters. After this number which you have posted here, there will be two letters. That's what determines the manufacturing month and year.

Re: ARTICLE: Find your car's date of manufacture (VIN)

Can some one help decode the below S Cross VIN #. Per guideline 10th position is year and 11th is Month. But here it is "0" in both the positions.
