VIN numbers: Anyone know what the letters and numbers mean? (more)
I just got mine from the dealer for my '00 on order. Wondered if there is some way to tell when it was built, specific details about the car, etc...What does all that stuff mean?
Thanks

One more try...
Sorry, that link will bring up the master FAQ index, which would be good to browse through anyways. There is a ton of great info in there that every new A4 owner should review. Below is the link to the specific VIN FAQ.<ul><li><a href="http://www.a4.org/faq/faqs/faq98.shtml">VIN FAQ</a></li></ul>

all you need to know about vins..
the vin doesnt give any info you do not already know. this could apply to any car..
1st digit - nation of origin (w, germany)
2/3 - make (audi)
4 - series (a4 turbo)
5 - engine type
6 - restraint system
7/8 - model
9 - check digit (only manuf knows correct chk digit, this is to verify vin is not forged)
10 - model year (prob y for my '00)
11 - assembly plant
12 to 17 - sequential production number
