| Europa VIN in Russian Vin Decoder
Has anyone ever tried running a Europa Vin through the Russian VIN decoder? Is there anyway to alter the vin to make it spit out what i want? |

Yes. I ass-u-me that you mean a Europa Internal VIN that starts with WDBEG.
If so, take the last six digits of the Europa VIN and put it in place of the small x's in the following: WDB4632411Xxxxxxx. That is the Chassis Number as it left the factory. |

This one has Y instead of X, any difference? Male vs. Female perhaps? Bad joke...but had too.

Not in the last six digits, it doesn't.
Start with what I posted above and substitute the last 6 digits of Europa's number with the x's in what I gave you. You then have the European Fahrgestell-ID.Nr. or Chassis Number. use it in the Russian decoder. |

Try using Mercedes Mania to decipher codes once you have looked them up via Russian VIN site.
Also you vehicle registration card should state when you car was manufactured.

I guess there is a reason they are unknown codes, even the site doesn't know them... |
