Volkswagen Golf - Video tutorial

Model: Volkswagen Golf Golf VI, Golf 6, MK 6, 5K1 - Years 2008-2012
Part: Checks and maintenance
Operation: Where the Volkswagen Golf VI's legal chassis number (VIN) is located

The legal chassis number of a vehicle is not the one on the plate on the left of the driver's side windscreen. It is good to know that this is simply a courtesy plate, and it is mainly used by the whole automotive world, to move the car before it has a plate. If you have to take the car to the motorisation for a visit and test, or if the Traffic Police want to cross-check your car with the chassis shown in the booklet, you need to be able to know where the chassis number is stamped. In the case of the Volkswagen Golf VI, it is on the bonnet flap of the bodywork, on the side facing the passenger, under a rubber seal that can be removed.
