Volkswagon Chassis decoder.

[RB26DETT]

Mods - Can you please leave this here for a while to get a better response.

A friend is looking at an 07 Passat 4motion and wants to know if its the 170BHP version.

Can anyone point me to a realiable VW decoder or if someone could decode it ?

Chassis number

Thanks.

Thank you.

I would check further about the red 'I' thing - many people change it like the people who put M badges on their 325i

Just call VW tomorrow and they will confirm

Have a look at the Data Sticker, in the spare wheel well(if its not in there, a possible sign of repair), or the same sticker should be in the first page of the service book.
Somewhere near the top you should see either 103KW=140bhp or 125KW=170bhp.
