The following link is very useful and allows reading of the codes on the vehicle build plate:

Very useful is rather an understatement!

That's a seriously cool site, since it will decode everything on the data sticker (http://bitnet.ro/vw/datasticker/) or separately by:
VIN (http://bitnet.ro/vw/vindecoder/)
PR codes (http://bitnet.ro/vw/prdecoder/)
Engine codes
(http://bitnet.ro/vw/enginecodes/)
Transmission codes (http://bitnet.ro/vw/transmissions/)

Model information (http://bitnet.ro/vw/models/) lists worldwide models and engine/transmissions and build dates (I saw final build date for Polo IV as 31/5/2009)

Complete dimension diagrams (http://bitnet.ro/vw/dimensions/)

Thanks Bluey - being an impending VW enthusiast to add to my existing car club involvement, I knew it would be useful but I could not appreciate the full extent :toast:.

Happy to be of assistance.

I noticed that the current 2K* series caddy is going to be kicked in 2009 as well, I wonder if there will be a body shape change (since its very similar in the front half to the touran) or just like toyota's hiace, more of the same...?

Um, bummer! This site appears to be no longer active.
:duh:
Has it moved to new location?
Can anyone recommend an alternative?

Hi all - my first post....

I found another PR number decoder here;

it looks like it works for our new caddy,
only one spat out as not known; BRM

any ideas?
