Enter the full 17-character VIN (e.g. WDD2040012A123456). Platform codes above identify the generation — lookup uses the VIN. Finding the number: see where to find a chassis number. Brand-wide guidance: Japan-market Mercedes usually retain a 17-character VIN (commonly WDB or WDD prefixes), not a short Japanese chassis code. Find it on the export / deregistration papers, the door-jamb plate, and the windscreen VIN tag. Platform codes below (R230, W204, …) help identify the generation — for lookup, enter the full VIN.
What to check on a C-Class
- Match VIN year/model expectations to the sheet line.
- Urban door dings are normal; R/RA grades are not “just cosmetic.”
- Interior grade vs claimed kilometres should look coherent.
