Where is the VIN number of the Lada Granta?

Decoding Vin Lada Granta

The international structure for determining information by VIN code is also used by VAZ.
The first three letters indicate the manufacturer's index, which indicates the geographical area, country and manufacturer. The next 6 digits indicate the vehicle model. The 10th position indicates the year of manufacture of the vehicle. Moreover, starting from July 2009, the encoding began to repeat itself. Unlike European brands, which indicate various technical characteristics of their cars in the VIN code, the domestic manufacturer was short and concise. The last seven digits indicate the body number provided by the manufacturer. Enter your VIN code and click the check button. A database search will be performed.

Is there a body number in the cabin?

Before going and registering the car, I read on the Internet that there is a duplicate number in the car under the back seat in the middle. It was also written that you need to lower the backrest, pull the upholstery out of the seal, or find a slot in the upholstery under which the number will be located.

This information is not correct, and on a Lada Granta car as standard, there is no body number in these places!

Where is the engine number on the Lada Grant?

Car owners also need to know the legal subtleties. Sometimes the preparation of technical documents causes many difficulties. Don't know where the engine number is on the grant. It is difficult for a person without experience to find it the first time. You can spend a lot of time on this procedure if you do not have certain knowledge in this area. In this article we will figure out what the engine number should look like, where it is located and what it is needed for.

Where are the body numbers on the grant?

Our clients who want to purchase painted parts for Lada cars often have a question: how to find out the exact name of the color? For example, the Lada Granta has 4 shades of black.

So, to find out the exact name of the color of a Lada car, you will need the car’s service book or warranty card.

You don’t need to look at the registration certificate; there the MREO indicates the color of your choice.

The name of the body color of Lada cars consists of 3 numbers and the name of the color.

In the service book it looks like this:

Here's what the warranty card says:

The color name after its digital designation may differ from the factory color name. For example, the color “691 silver” may be specified. The factory name for this color is “691 Platinum”. Thus, when ordering parts in body color, you need to focus specifically on the digital color code.

For Datsun cars, the color designation is different; at the moment, the color correspondence table is as follows:

If you do not have a warranty card or service book for the car, you can determine the color by the date of issue of the vehicle passport (according to the AvtoVAZ painting plan).

To determine the color by the date of issue of the vehicle passport, you need to follow the link https://avtosreda.ru/colorplans/2016/03.php, select the year and month of issue of the PTS, select the car model in the painting plan table, and select the color. The painting plan is valid only for cars assembled in Togliatti. For cars assembled in Izhevsk, we recommend contacting the AvtoVAZ feedback system.

If you have a duplicate PTS or the color of the car cannot be selected according to the painting plan, you can inform about the color of the car through the feedback system of AvtoVAZ PJSC, indicating the VIN number of the car. To ask a question, follow the link https://www.lada.ru/feedback/message.html

Where is the vehicle body number (VIN code) located? Location of VIN code (body number)

The VIN code is indicated in the vehicle registration certificate. The image shows an example of the VIN code indicated in the car's technical passport. Identification numbers are applied on integral components of the body or chassis and on specially made number plates (nameplates).

On all modern cars, the VIN number is located on the upper left side of the instrument panel, visible through the windshield. It can also be found on the left A-pillar.

On American cars, the VIN code is usually located on the dashboard on the left driver's side in the place where the windshield touches the hood and is duplicated on a sticker located in the driver's door opening. In addition, it can be duplicated in other places.

Traditional places for applying VIN are the cylinder block and head, body pillars, door sills, the partition between the engine and the passenger compartment, and for cars with a frame structure (mostly SUVs) - also side members.

The vehicle identification number is stamped not only on the body, chassis and engine, but also on a special identification plate - it is either screwed or riveted somewhere in a visible place in the engine compartment.

In other cases, the VIN code can be found from the title or vehicle registration certificate.

At JSC AVTOVAZ, the start of the model year is set on July 1 of the calendar year. Thus, from January 1 to June 30, the model year corresponds to the actual year of manufacture of the car, and from July 1 to December 31 corresponds to the one following the actual year of manufacture of the car.

Method of applying VIN code (body number)

When checking a car by Vin, you also need to pay attention to the way the identification number is applied. If the vehicle identification number is indicated in any documents, then it must be written on one line and in a continuous line, i.e. without spaces. If the identification number is indicated on the vehicle or on the nameplate, then it must be given either on one line or in two lines and also without spaces, while the elements of the identification number themselves (for example, WMI, VDS or VIS) must not be separated. With the exception of the last four positions, the VIN has an alphanumeric structure. To compile it, it is allowed to use the following Arabic numbers and Latin letters: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 ABCDEFGHJKLMNPRSTUVWX Y Z.
