Audi vehicle codes are generally located on the front bulkhead of the engine compartment or on the left side of the vehicle's dashboard. The vehicle code, also known as the vehicle identification number (VIN), can be used to query information such as the car manufacturer, production location, production year, and engine/chassis serial number. Below are the five components of the vehicle code: 1. Manufacturer Code: The manufacturer code is represented by 2 Chinese phonetic letters. For example, CA stands for FAW, EQ for Dongfeng (Second Automobile Works), BJ for Beijing, and NJ for Nanjing. 2.

Main Parameter Code: The main parameter code is represented by 2 Arabic numerals: (1) For trucks, these two digits represent the gross vehicle weight (sum of curb weight and payload capacity). (2) For passenger cars, these two digits represent the engine displacement (unit: liters). (3) For buses, these two digits represent the body length (unit: meters). 4. Product Sequence Number: The product sequence number is represented by 1 Arabic numeral: 0, 1, and 2 respectively indicate modifications or variants of the model. 5.
