The chassis number can be found on the bulkhead inside the vehicle and on the right hand front spring hanger. Series III 109' V8 (Stage I) The chassis number can be found on the firewall in the engine bay and on the right hand front spring hanger. The chassis number of an 80' Land Rover is (should be) exactly the same as the Car number on the vehicle identification plate. If not the the Land Rover in case has probably had some parts swapped around. Below are the listed the chassis number sequences. 1947 The first Land Rovers were produced (80') and shown at the Amsterdam Car Show in late April. 1953 Wheelbase lengthened from 80' to 86'. 1954 100,000th Land Rover produced. 1956 The 107 is introduced. Santana Version of the Land Rover started in Spain, they produce 18,000 vehicles between1956 and 1980. These formats are described in the table below. Since 1980 Land Rover deploys the standard 17-character Vehicle Identification Number (VIN), complying with international standards. Car details can be derived (decoded, calculated) from the chassis numbers and the VIN.
A vehicle identification number (VIN) is a unique code, including a serial number, used by the automotive industry to identify individual motor vehicles, towed vehicles, motorcycles, scooters and mopeds, as defined in ISO 3779 (content and structure) and ISO 4030 (location and attachment).
VINs were first used in 1954 in the United States.[1] From 1954 to 1981, there was no accepted standard for these numbers, so different manufacturers used different formats.
In 1981, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration of the United States standardized the format.[1] It required all on-road vehicles sold to contain a 17-character VIN, which does not include the letters O (o), I (i), and Q (q) (to avoid confusion with numerals 0, 1, and 9).
There are vehicle history services in several countries that help potential car owners use VINs to find vehicles that are defective or have been written off.

Classification[edit]
There are at least four competing standards used to calculate the VIN.
- FMVSS 115, Part 565: Used in United States and Canada[2]
- ISO Standard 3779: Used in Europe and many other parts of the world
- SAE J853: Very similar to the ISO standard
- ADR 61/2 used in Australia, referring to ISO 3779 and 3780[3]
Components[edit]
Modern VINs are based on two related standards, originally issued by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in 1979 and 1980: ISO 3779[4] and ISO 3780,[5] respectively. Compatible but different implementations of these ISO standards have been adopted by the European Union and the United States, respectively.[6]
The VIN comprises the following sections:
Standard | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13 | 14 | 15 | 16 | 17 | ||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
ISO 3779 | World manufacturer identifier | VDS | VIS | ||||||||||||||||
European Union[7] more than 500 vehicles/year | World manufacturer identifier | Indication of 'the general characteristics of the vehicle' | Indication that provides 'clear identification of a particular vehicle' | ||||||||||||||||
European Union[7] 500 or fewer vehicles/year | World manufacturer identifier | 9 | Indication of 'the general characteristics of the vehicle' | Indication that provides 'clear identification of a particular vehicle' | |||||||||||||||
North America more than 2000 vehicles/year | World manufacturer identifier | Vehicle attributes | Check digit | Model year | Plant code | Sequential number | |||||||||||||
North America 2000 or fewer vehicles/year | World manufacturer identifier | 9 | Vehicle attributes | Check digit | Model year | Plant code | Manufacturer identifier | Sequential number |
World manufacturer identifier[edit]
The first three characters uniquely identify the manufacturer of the vehicle using the world manufacturer identifier or WMI code. A manufacturer who builds fewer than 1000 vehicles per year uses a 9 as the third digit, and the 12th, 13th and 14th position of the VIN for a second part of the identification. Some manufacturers use the third character as a code for a vehicle category (e.g., bus or truck), a division within a manufacturer, or both. For example, within 1G (assigned to General Motors in the United States), 1G1 represents Chevrolet passenger cars; 1G2, Pontiac passenger cars; and 1GC, Chevrolet trucks.
The Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) in the U.S. assigns WMIs to countries and manufacturers.[8]
The first character of the WMI is the region in which the manufacturer is located. In practice, each is assigned to a country of manufacture, although in Europe the country where the continental headquarters is located can assign the WMI to all vehicles produced in that region (Example: Opel/Vauxhall cars whether produced in Germany, Spain, the United Kingdom or Poland carry a WMI of W0L because Adam Opel AG is based in Rüsselsheim, Germany).
In the notation below, assume that letters precede numbers and that zero is the last number. For example, 8X–82 denotes the range 8X, 8Y, 8Z, 81, 82, excluding 80.[8]

---|---|---|---|---|---|
AA-AH South Africa | J Japan | SA-SM United Kingdom | 1, 4, or 5 United States | 6 Australia | 8A-8E Argentina |
Vehicle descriptor section[edit]
The fourth to ninth positions in the VIN are the vehicle descriptor section or VDS. This is used, according to local regulations, to identify the vehicle type, and may include information on the automobile platform used, the model, and the body style. Each manufacturer has a unique system for using this field. Most manufacturers since the 1980s have used the eighth digit to identify the engine type whenever there is more than one engine choice for the vehicle. Example: for the 2007 Chevrolet Corvette, U is for a 6.0-liter V8 engine, and E is for a 7.0 L V8.
North American check digits[edit]
One element that is inconsistent is the use of position nine as a check digit, compulsory for vehicles in North America and China, but not Europe.
Vehicle identifier section[edit]
The 10th to 17th positions are used as the 'vehicle identifier section' (VIS). This is used by the manufacturer to identify the individual vehicle in question. This may include information on options installed or engine and transmission choices, but often is a simple sequential number. In North America, the last five digits must be numeric.
Model year encoding[edit]
One consistent element of the VIS is the 10th digit, which is required worldwide to encode the model year of the vehicle. Besides the three letters that are not allowed in the VIN itself (I, O and Q), the letters U and Z and the digit 0 are not used for the model year code. The year code is the model year for the vehicle.
The year 1980 was encoded by some manufacturers, especially General Motors and Chrysler, as 'A' (since the 17-digit VIN was not mandatory until 1981, and the 'A' or zero was in the manufacturer's pre-1981 placement in the VIN), yet Ford and AMC still used a zero for 1980. Subsequent years increment through the allowed letters, so that 'Y' represents the year 2000. 2001 to 2009 are encoded as the digits 1 to 9, and subsequent years are encoded as 'A', 'B', 'C', etc.
Code | Year | Code | Year | Code | Year | Code | Year | Code | Year | Code | Year |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
A = | 1980 | L = | 1990 | Y = | 2000 | A = | 2010 | L = | 2020 | Y = | 2030 |
B = | 1981 | M = | 1991 | 1 = | 2001 | B = | 2011 | M = | 2021 | 1 = | 2031 |
C = | 1982 | N = | 1992 | 2 = | 2002 | C = | 2012 | N = | 2022 | 2 = | 2032 |
D = | 1983 | P = | 1993 | 3 = | 2003 | D = | 2013 | P = | 2023 | 3 = | 2033 |
E = | 1984 | R = | 1994 | 4 = | 2004 | E = | 2014 | R = | 2024 | 4 = | 2034 |
F = | 1985 | S = | 1995 | 5 = | 2005 | F = | 2015 | S = | 2025 | 5 = | 2035 |
G = | 1986 | T = | 1996 | 6 = | 2006 | G = | 2016 | T = | 2026 | 6 = | 2036 |
H = | 1987 | V = | 1997 | 7 = | 2007 | H = | 2017 | V = | 2027 | 7 = | 2037 |
J = | 1988 | W = | 1998 | 8 = | 2008 | J = | 2018 | W = | 2028 | 8 = | 2038 |
K = | 1989 | X = | 1999 | 9 = | 2009 | K = | 2019 | X = | 2029 | 9 = | 2039 |
On April 30, 2008, the US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration adopted a final rule amending 49 CFR Part 565, 'so that the current 17 character vehicle identification number (VIN) system, which has been in place for almost 30 years, can continue in use for at least another 30 years', in the process making several changes to the VIN requirements applicable to all motor vehicles manufactured for sale in the United States. There are three notable changes to the VIN structure that affect VIN deciphering systems:
- The make may only be identified after looking at positions one through three and another position, as determined by the manufacturer in the second section or fourth to eighth segment of the VIN.
- In order to identify the exact year in passenger cars and multipurpose passenger vehicles with a GVWR of 10,000 or less, one must read position 7 as well as position 10. For passenger cars, and for multipurpose passenger vehicles and trucks with a gross vehicle weight rating of 10,000 lb (4,500 kg) or less, if position seven is numeric, the model year in position 10 of the VIN refers to a year in the range 1980–2009.[citation needed] If position seven is alphabetic, the model year in position 10 of VIN refers to a year in the range 2010–2039.
- The model year for vehicles with a GVWR greater than 10,000 lb (4,500 kg), as well as buses, motorcycles, trailers and low-speed vehicles, may no longer be identified within a 30-year range. VIN characters 1–8 and 10 that were assigned from 1980–2009 can be repeated beginning with the 2010 model year.
Plant code[edit]
Compulsory in North America and China is the use of the 11th character to identify the assembly plant at which the vehicle was built. Each manufacturer has its own set of plant codes. Cabri 3d v2 crack download.
Production number[edit]
In the United States and China, the 12th to 17th digits are the vehicle's serial or production number. This is unique to each vehicle, and every manufacturer uses its own sequence.
Check-digit calculation[edit]
A check-digit validation is used for all road vehicles sold in the United States and Canada.
When trying to validate a VIN with a check digit, first either (a) remove the check digit for the purpose of calculation or (b) use a weight of zero (see below) to cancel it out. The original value of the check digit is then compared with the calculated value. If the calculated value is 0–9, the check digit must match the calculated value. If the calculated value is 10, the check digit must be X. If the two values do not match (and there was no error in the calculation), then there is a mistake in the VIN. However, a match does not prove the VIN is correct, because there is still a 1/11 chance that any two distinct VINs have a matching check digit: for example, the valid VINs 5GZCZ43D13S812715 (correct with leading five) and SGZCZ43D13S812715 (incorrect with leading character 'S'). The VINs in the Porsche image, WP0ZZZ99ZTS392124, and the GM-T body image, KLATF08Y1VB363636, do not pass the North American check-digit verification.
Transliterating the numbers[edit]
Transliteration consists of removing all of the letters, and replacing them with their appropriate numerical counterparts. These numerical alternatives (based on IBM's EBCDIC) are in the following chart. I, O, and Q are not allowed in a valid VIN; for this chart, they have been filled in with N/A (not applicable). Numerical digits use their own values.
A: 1 | B: 2 | C: 3 | D: 4 | E: 5 | F: 6 | G: 7 | H: 8 | N/A |
J: 1 | K: 2 | L: 3 | M: 4 | N: 5 | N/A | P: 7 | N/A | R: 9 |
N/A | S: 2 | T: 3 | U: 4 | V: 5 | W: 6 | X: 7 | Y: 8 | Z: 9 |
S is 2, and not 1. There is no left-alignment linearity.
Weights used in calculation[edit]
The following is the weight factor for each position in the VIN. The 9th position is that of the check digit. It has been substituted with a 0, which will cancel it out in the multiplication step.
Position | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13 | 14 | 15 | 16 | 17 |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Weight | 8 | 7 | 6 | 5 | 4 | 3 | 2 | 10 | 0 | 9 | 8 | 7 | 6 | 5 | 4 | 3 | 2 |
Worked example[edit]
Consider the hypothetical VIN 1M8GDM9A_KP042788, where the underscore will be the check digit.

This update is still in beta, so expect some bugs and Camera does’nt works as well, but as far as I have used it personally, expcet the camera everything works good and is stable. First of all make sure you have only and only S5670, as trying this update on any other phone, might end you up in bricking up your phone. You should have installed custom recovery on your phone to do so refer to this.
VIN | 1 | M | 8 | G | D | M | 9 | A | K | P | 0 | 4 | 2 | 7 | 8 | 8 | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Value | 1 | 4 | 8 | 7 | 4 | 4 | 9 | 1 | 0 | 2 | 7 | 0 | 4 | 2 | 7 | 8 | 8 |
Weight | 8 | 7 | 6 | 5 | 4 | 3 | 2 | 10 | 0 | 9 | 8 | 7 | 6 | 5 | 4 | 3 | 2 |
Products | 8 | 28 | 48 | 35 | 16 | 12 | 18 | 10 | 0 | 18 | 56 | 0 | 24 | 10 | 28 | 24 | 16 |
- The VIN's value is calculated from the above transliteration table. This number is used in the rest of the calculation.
- Copy the weights from the above weight factor table.
- The products row is the result of the multiplication of the vertical columns: Value and Weight.
- The products (8, 28, 48, 35 .. 24, 16) are all added together to yield a sum, 351.
- Find the remainder after dividing by 11
351 MOD 11 = 10
351 ÷ 11 = 31 10/11 - The remainder is the check digit. If the remainder is 10, the check digit is X. In this example, the remainder is 10, so the check digit is transliterated as X.
With a check digit of X, the VIN 1M8GDM9A_KP042788 is written 1M8GDM9AXKP042788.
A VIN with straight-ones (seventeen consecutive 1s) has the nice feature that its check digit 1 matches the calculated value 1. This is because a value of one multiplied by 89 (sum of weights) is 89, and 89 divided by 11 is 8 with remainder 1⁄11; thus 1 is the check digit. This is a way to test a VIN-check algorithm.
VIN scanning[edit]
VINs may be optically read with barcode scanners or digital cameras, or digitally read via OBD-II in newer vehicles. There are smartphone applications that can pass the VIN to websites to decode the VIN.

The ninth vehicle identification number digit is a VIN accuracy check digit, verifying the previous VIN numbers. This is how the check digit works/
STEP 1 Assign to each number in the VIN its actual mathematical value and assign to each letter the value specified for it in the following chart: ASSIGNED VALUES: |
STEP 2 Multiply the assigned value for each character in the VIN by the position weight factor specified in the following chart: VIN POSITION AND WEIGHT FACTOR: |
STEP 3 Add the products from steps 1 and 2 and divide the total by 11. |
STEP 4 The numerical remainder is the check digit which would appear in the 9th position in the VIN. If the remainder is 10, then the letter “X” is used for the check digit. |
Tenth vehicle identification number digit tells the model year. 1988 (J), 1989 (K), 1990 (L), 1991 (M), 1992 (N), 1993 (P), 1994 (R), 1995 (S), 1996 (T), 199 7(V), 1998 (W), 1999 (X), 2000 (Y)——2001(1), 2002 (2), 2003 (3)
