How to decode a BMW VIN

Every BMW vehicle has a unique 17-character Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) that encodes its specifications. You can find the VIN on the driver's side dashboard (visible through the windshield), on the door jamb sticker, or on your registration and insurance documents.

Enter the VIN in the search box above and our decoder will instantly return the full factory specifications from the official NHTSA database. This includes 40+ data points covering everything from engine specs to safety systems.
