Hi

Is it possible to determine the build date/week from the VIN?

Just got the lease contract through and wondered if it'd be possible to see if it just falls in with the Amundsen being fitted as standard.

Get the Skoda Service App on your phone - put your VIN in there - and it'll tell you the date of manufacture (I don't know if it's the date they put the "chassis" together or the date they completed it - but I'd imagine it's when they assign the VIN to the particular piece of metal. Either way - it's THAT week !!)

Ok so the Skoda service app tells me the date of production was the 29/10/2015.

Does this date fall in with the Amundsen being fitted as standard?

I chased this up as mine is a week 44 build (26/10/15) so same week as yours I'm guessing. Skoda said they were fitting the Amundsen as standard as of week 45 (02/11/15) and said the only way of guaranteeing my car would have it would be to cancel my order and re-order but I wasn't going to do that... Would have been a nice free-be but as I didn't spec it in the first place I'm not all that bothered, just a tad annoying that I missed out on it by a matter of days. You might be lucky though keep your fingers crossed.

Good news!

Least I'm in with a chance then!

Getting frustrated now! Apparently the car was due into the dealers last week so I expected to hear something today but nothing! :-(

On the lease contract I had a couple of weeks ago it says the car will be registered as new 30/11/2015 so I'm really hoping I'll hear something tomorrow!!
