Interpreting the VIN
I'm looking to buy a 2013 135i or is. I was surprised to find that a backup camera is not standard. But I can't see on the VIN where this is specified.
Anyone out there know what to look for on the VIN to be sure that a backup or rear camera has been installed? Thanks! |

Thank you hell. But,
"Park Distance Control" option 507 is for the parking sensers (sp?), not for the backup camera video feed. See https://www.autobytel.com/car-owners...ontrol-122327/ for example. I've looked at the VINs of a bunch of cars and can't find any option that sounds like a backup camera. Someone out there with a backup camera take a look at your VIN and see if you can find the option number. |

Well, duh, I looked at the VIN of the car I'm driving now, a 2017 2301 that has the backup camera and I found S3AGA Reversing Camera. That must be it.
In the 3 digit system it's 3AG Can someone out there tell me why bimmer.work vin decoder gives 3 digit build codes and vindecoderz.com gives 5 digit codes for the same VIN. It makes no sense. I would have assumed that the codes are universal. Last edited by maryx; 08-17-2019 at 11:10 PM.. |
