The decoder does not work for me.
Here's my VIN: wbahd61050bk82209
I inputted the last 7 characters bk92209 but i got an error.
In the online parts site, it works and it correctly identifies the car as a JAP model.
Can anyone help?
Thanks,
Philip
Nothing new to the regulars here, but valuable for the newbies.
If you want to know details about your car, just type in the last 7 digits/letters of your chassis number and a lot of information will come out, such as type of engine, type of gear and actual month and year of production.
This is sometimes very important when asking to solve problems and/or looking for correct part numbers.
Just one example, the microfilter has been installed only from a certain month in 1990.
Some people believe first date of registration is same/equal to month/year of production. That is not the case.
For example my car was produced in 11/1988 and first registration was 12/1989.
If possible, indicate your VIN number in your signature, but at least the exact model, type and month/year of production.

I have no problem with this one
http://www.bmw-z1.com/VIN/VINdecode-e.cgi
My VIN is 3055570 and when I type in that number and push encode then it tells me all.
I dunno... must be something up with my ISP.
This is what I get back when I try to run it-
"Sorry, We could not process your request.
Reason : Request was rejected from this IP address ( 207.55.236.240 )
May be you are using anonymous proxy server."
