How to Check the 10-Digit Vehicle Code for Audi Cars?
2 Answers
The method to check the 10-digit vehicle code for Audi cars is as follows: When the vehicle is delivered by the 4S store, there is a transparent plastic card included in the accompanying folder. The back of this plastic card has a coating, and after scratching off the coating, you can see the 10-digit vehicle code. If this code is lost, you can request a replacement from the 4S store. Taking the Audi A6L 2021 40TFSI Luxury Elegance model as an example, this is a mid-to-large-sized car with dimensions of 5038mm in length, 1886mm in width, and 1475mm in height, with a wheelbase of 3024mm. It is equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum power of 140kW and a maximum torque of 320Nm. The engine reaches its maximum power at 4200 to 6000 rpm and is paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.
When looking for the 10-digit code on my Audi, I usually start by checking the lower left corner of the windshield, where there's a small label engraved with the full 17-digit VIN. If you just need the first 10 digits, you can read them directly. If it's not on the windshield, open the driver's side door and check the nameplate on the door pillar or near the pedals. Last year when I had my car repaired, the mechanic showed me that there's also a metal plate with the code near the shock absorber under the hood. It's best to take a photo of it and save it on your phone for easy access when buying insurance or transferring ownership. Audi models like the A4 or Q5 generally have a similar layout. Also, don’t forget to check the vehicle registration certificate or owner’s manual, as they contain the full set of information. Make it a habit to keep these details handy to avoid scrambling in emergencies.
