wow, thanks!
Does that mean that I have a slow type of axle gear??? It lifts 1,5 ton, does not go over 115 km per hour, well, it hoes pump changed to Bosh mechanical, maybe that is one of the reasons?
Ha, presently the color is black, diamond white, what is it????

It means, it can carry around a tonne and has the middle ratio axle out of the three available (quite common)

Your top speed tells me there's something wrong with your pump or it's settings :|

Form what I gather, change from Lukas Epica to mechanical Bosh is always a reason for a slower speed.The way it is with me, the turbine is there, but hardly makes any difference, so I intend to install the car's original pump back.

If I am honest I don't know I had just come across this vin checker so was checking it out with your number although I would not be able to see anything had changed from what you have said.
