VIN codes, type 44
All right, no one bit on this one the first time so I'll try changing the
subject a little and resubmitting it!
Are the VIN codes in the bentley not complete for the type 44 cars? My VIN
seems to have some conflictions, and I'm just wondering if there is better
info out there.
Here's what I found:
Line and body type (digit #4, bentley's "pos 2"):
bentley lists choices:
F - sedan 4-door
H - turbo
but my car has a "D", so what's up? as far as I can tell, my 5000S quattro
is a non turbo 4 door sedan...
Engine
bentley lists:
B - 2.2 l 100hp gas
C - 2.2 l 130hp turbo gas
but my car has a "C" and it is non turbo (2.3 l)
And what's this "Active Restraint System"?
It says my car has one, but it doesn't, Does it??
ALSO, I don't have a VIN on my engine where the bentley says it should be--
in fact I can't find one on there at all, although there are other numbers
in the casting all over the place (raised not imprinted).

maybe I should get these things ziebarted!)
