Decode my VIN?

Hi,

Is there anyone here who can get the full original Option list for my UK Panamera Turbo from the VIN? I've bought it second hand from a non-Porsche dealer and they didn't have the complete options list (mostly interested to know if it has PDCC).

Thanks in advance!

I don't believe US systems would be able to see options list on UK VINs. I'm not sure thought. I would call or go to a dealer, either service or sales, they should be able to print it out for you. If one person doesn't give try the next representative. I did this several times here in the US. It sometimes work. Worth the try

Thanks, the car isn't in the UK anymore, it was exported to Singapore so local dealers can't help.

Anyway I did a bit more investigation and I see that in the fuse box there's a fuse in the PDCC control unit position (luggage compartment carrier A, position 12 & carrier B, position 11) and also fuses in the differential lock positions (luggage compartment carrier A, positions 6 & 7). So I now strongly suspect the car has PDCC.

Here's a (crappy camera-phone) photo of the fusebox... I think I may have PDCC...

No worries, was worth a shot

I would have PM'ed you but for some reason the mods reset my post count for posting something about business on here when I am not a sponsor

Any chance you would be able to look up 2 VINs for me? They are both in the U.S.:

WP0AF2A75DL076098
WP0AF2A73DL075192

Thanks!

I know that I'm late to the game but have you tried these folks? They have a Panamera board. I'll bet someone can help. Good luck.
