A fellow member kindly shared this link over on the Octavia forum.

 

It's the first I've seen that lists all the PR codes out from the VIN. All of the others I've seen require you to type in each PR code.

 

It also provides (the often missing) front brake disc PR code too, which is really helpful when sourcing replacement discs and pads...

Any chance we can make this a sticky to refer other members to?

Thanks! That is very useful. I like the fact that it gives both the exact build date in full YYYY-MM-DD format as well as the model year.

 

It says its good for years 1999 and later. I wonder if it could be used by members buying cars (like the Karoq and Kodiaq)  to see how long they may have been sitting in a Czech Airfield waiting for approvals (i.e. "banked" cars")? 

 

I can see my Superb 2 Estate was sitting somewhere for 8 months before it got first registered!

Thank you very much. Great summary...

I'm keen to know about Trailer Hitch Preparation on a Yeti I'm looking at, so from here: http://www.vag-codes.info/vag-option-codes

it would seem that I should look for one of the following:

1D7

1D8

1M1

1M5

1M7

 

Does the label in the boot show ALL options fitted to the  vehicle? If not, how would I know? The VIN is TMBME75L3D6080556.

 

Thanks.

Not by any means, but I think I would probably expect it to mention trailer prep, if the car has it.  Can't really justify that feeling.

 

I guess you've tried the link in the opening post without success.  Try giving a local Skoda dealership a ring, ask for the Parts Department and see if they'll send you a pdf of the full 'car data' from your Reg or VIN.

You can get it yourself via erWin Skoda but it'll cost you a few Euros.

@johanbrandon your posts seem very robotic, do you have a Skoda, if so which?
