Thanks a lot Wildon! This was of great help. I have done the PDI today and found everything appropriate except a couple of minor things, should be sorted out by the dealer before delivery.

One thing I noticed here with the two VINs alloted to me, the 6th digit represented a month earlier than the actual manufacturing month.

Thanks again!

As per Skoda worldwide website,
Škoda Rapid 1.6 TDI 77kw
manufactured in July 2012, production number 025857
production plant Pune (IND)

Confused on this part?
The entered VIN is not valid!

This request is for my friend.
He booked a Hyundai i10, and was given the following VIN number:
MALAN51CMCM267838
It seems the format of the VIN number has changed, hence unable to find the manufacturing date. Could you please help.

Hi Wildon,

Could you please help me out with the VIN decoding for my new arrival. Its a Toyota Fortuner and my dealer has given me a VIN with 17 characters as opposed to 22 as mentioned by you.

VIN: MBJ11JV6104007018

A detailed decoding would be highly appreciated.

Thanks,
n:CorE

wildon · 17th October 2012, 11:28

^^ Ask for the full chassis number which include another 5 charactors/ symbol. for e.g *xxxx

Chassis: 4007018
Engine: U115671
VIN: MBJ11JV6104007018

These are all the details forwarded to me by my dealer, is there anything I am missing out on ?

Hi Wildon,
Thx a lot for your article.

I've been breaking my head

trying to understand the coding for some cars that I was checking out and now I came across this article.

Very useful

and that too, for different makes!!
