M Codes

[Waspman]

I'm sure that this has been covered before. I have looked on samba.com and type2.com come up with the information in the picture. Does anyone know where I can look to fill in the blanks? Had anyone contacted VW about these codes before and if so what response did they get?

Thanks,

Iain

Production date = Mar 27, 1971
E = Emden
793 = Production number indicating a special note in the German licence papers, saying that a Trumatic SB 2000 gas heater has been fitted
213 = Without rubber floor mat in Passenger compartment
7450 = Production planning code - no real meaning


I'd like to say I just knew all that, but I used this decoder: https://vw-type2-id.xyz/mplate/decode/ Make sure you click on the tab for the right year.

That is brilliant, thanks. I hadn't come across that. Now to find out what a Trumatic SB gas heater is, whether I should look to reinstall it or whether a Propex hs2000e would be a reasonable substitute! I strongly suspect the latter!
