Hiya Manfred,

Have a look at my documentation on the VW Production Plate Information on your website. Those numbers are in the following form:-

wwdffff

Where:-

ww = Week number (Week 1 starts from the full week of the calendar year. 01 = January, 53 = December/January)

d = Day of week (1 = Monday, 7 = Sunday)

ffff = Factory code (I don't know what these numbers mean)

eg. on the first number it reads

0938059

Where:-

09 = Week 9 (March 1995)

3 = Wednesday

Wednesday 1st March 1995



and on the second number it reads:-

3428044

Where:-

34 = Week 34 (August 1999) assuming it's 2000 model year (1999 manufactured year).

2 = Tuesday

Tuesday 25th August 1999




VW have used this form of factory code on all of thier vehicles since (as far as I know) 1969 or 1970.

I hope this helps.

I hope that you all had a great christmas and have a Happy New Year

Phil
