Hey! Thanks a bunch! One question on digit 6, which in my case is a 6. The decode shows a "5" stands for "premium" but does not show what 6 stands for.

Robby,

There is something wrong with the chart you have attached. It shows that the crossfire VIN starts with a "4" but every Crossfire VIN I've ever seen starts with a one (1).

I noticed that to here's another one that looks more accurate.:confused:

Re: Decoding x-fire VIN
 

I believe the "6" designates the car as an "SE" edition, which is a "Base" Roadster with SRT6 wheels and offered in Blaze Red only.

Re: Decoding x-fire VIN
 

If the Crossfire is mfg in Germany, how come it doesn't start with a "W"
BMW: WBA....
Audi: WAULT......

North American codes are usually 1,2,3

Anyone know why?

Re: Decoding x-fire VIN
 

I thought "6" in the 6th VIN position is for a "Limited".

Re: Decoding x-fire VIN
 

Hmmm. interesting and somewhat confusing. I believe the 1 in the first digit really means "made for -- market" meaning 1 for US market. If you look at the 11th digit, which is "X" indicating the Osnabruck Germany assembly plant.

Still confused about the 6th and 7th digits tho.

Robby, Thanks for that PDF. Explains a lot...all except for position 7, which shows possibilities of 3, 6, 7 and 9. Mine is 5 in that position. No biggie tho, thatnks again!

The 5 is for a 2 dr. convertible, yours is a convertible isn't it?

Re: Decoding x-fire VIN
 

That is correct. Pics in my gallery. Thanks for the file, a wealth of info there!

One more wrinkle to iron out. There is no location code for Affalterbach, Germany. AMG plant. Isn't that where SRTs were assembled, or did they source parts from there?

Re: Decoding x-fire VIN
 

The 11th digit x is the assembly plant. Maybe the car was made in one assembly plant and the AMG motor and tranny put in at Affalterbach, or maybe they sent the motor and transmission over to Osnabruck where the car was made. :confused:

It's bad enough they can't fix them, they can't get their vin's straight either.:confused: :rolleyes:
