Buying a timing belt kit for my 99.5 a4 and need to know what engine code I have. I have my VIN but I have no idea how to find this code. Thanks

 

A4 1.8T engine code UK is ANB 1999-01 but the VIN should be the number asked for

 

my VIN is WAUCB28D1XA320410...anyone know what engine code this is?

 

the VIN doesn't give the engine code it only identifies the car

the VIN is all you need to order a part

So how do I know if I have one of these engine codes?

 

AWT is used from 2001>

 

Pop off your engine cover (takes 5 seconds) and you should find the letters AEB stamped on a tab on the corner of the head.

 

thanks for the help
