Bot of a basics question - parts and vin

WatchcamP38 · Apr 18, 2013

Hi All,

I have had a search but struggling to find an anwer to this.
Is there a website or software where I can input my vin and see all the part numbers fitted to my car?
Somewhere with the prices would be ideal too. (or at least a guide)

Any tips welcomed!

Yep....

Go to Land Rover 4x4 Vehicles | Land Rover UK

Find the Locate Dealer section

Put in your Postcode

Find the nearest to you

Either a) Pop over and give them your VIN number or b) Give them a call and have a chat

Close Internet Explorer, make a cup of coffee...its been a taxing day!

Microcat - Spare parts Land Rover catalogue in English. Follow that link for Microcat parts are listed with VIN application. Then go to Rimmer Bros site for prices but you won't be happy with them. Island 4x4 or here Range Rover P38A | Range Rover | British Parts UK maybe more to your liking.

Not what I am after

Something like this site below (this is BMW version)

RealOEM.com Online BMW Parts Catalog

You pop in your vin number and it brings up your specific car allowing total confidence in ordering the right part. Also has prices to give an idea.
Simple and really useful.

Nothing like this for Range Rovers?

Thanks for that - looks more like it. Is there some where to put vin in?
I might be having a senior moment!

No, look up a part click on it's illustration number. That will bring up a splash with differing numbers for it subject to VIN applicability. Copy the part number to Rimmers Bros search for Land rover astronomic prices. There is no system were you just type in VIN and it lists all YOUR particular parts. You would need a data base the size of the Isle of Man for that.

Thanks for that, I can work with it.

The BMW one I posted works all models for last 30 odd years by vin number, so I think it can be done. You could be right though, the server might be the size of a county!

Sorry for all the basic questions - its a new brand for me so a bit clueless!

As Wammers says...using Online MicroCAT you have to locate the item on the illustration, then click the tag and it brings up the part numbers and if there was a change, it lists the VIN number change points...

You can get via neferious means, the proper MicroCAT discs which allows you to put in your VIN and it lists the parts specific to your car - I have a really old copy somewhere...!!

I thought you meant vehicle build options, like Colour, Accessories, ticked options etc...which you will only get from LR build data!!
