Which software to find part numbers for VIN

Postby dannykater » Fri Aug 30, 2024 9:09 pm

Hello,

Which software can be used best to find part numbers for my van based on the vin number?

I'm looking for a new A/C compressor, but on the parts websites there's so many different part numbers they link to my license plate and VIN, not sure which one is the right one!

Thank you!

Thanks! Is the part number for the a/c compressor there the one i need? There's not different variants between different engines, FWD/RWD, years etc. etc.?

I did filter down in catcar to the right Engine, 350E Series and LHD RWD now!

I just figured out the Engine Code as well: YNR6. It seems you can narrow down quite a lot based on this code!

It just shows me one option / part number for the A/C compressor now: GK3119D629CD. Thanks for help finding the part number!

Unfortunately there's only a few used ones available and new are 400-500 euros. Arghhh
