Default 1995 993 Maintenance Booklet

Hi Guys,

Going through some stuff and clearing things out and I came across a 1995 993 Vehicle Maintenance booklet. Not sure where I got it from but I wanted to share the VIN # to see if the owner might be on here. I'd love to send it to them (free of charge) so that it returns to it's rightful owner.

Vin # 993TS375155

Please PM me with your name, recent photos of the car w/Vin and current vehicle registration and I'll send it off to you ASAP.

Thanks and Happy Holidays!

Damien

Hi Damien, the number You list is not a complete VIN
Should look something like:

Maybe WPOZZZ993TS375155
WPO = Porsche
ZZZ = USA code if not then fill in code for ROW
99 = first two digits of the model designation
3 = USA Code or fill digit for ROW
R = Model Year: 1994 (may mean year of manufacture)
S= Production Plant: Stuttgart
3= third digit in model code a "3" from 993
75155 = a serial number of chassis , this serial number is for a 1995 Turbo USA/Canada car.

USA code is "AAX" where "X" is the number of airbags in the vehicle ... ZZZ is RoW ... e.g. my 1995 993 is AA2

https://www.stuttcars.com/technical/vin-decoder/ looks like it has the best info

It could be WP0AA2993TS375155

W = German
P = Porsche
0 = sportscar
A = 911 Coupe (USA/Canada) - might not be accurate depending on Damien's country of residence
A = 993 Carrera (USA/Canada) - might not be accurate since we don't have full VIN
2 = 2 front airbags - might not be accurate since we don't have full VIN
99 = first 2 digits of model designation
3 = checksum digit
T = 1996
S = made in Stuttgart
3 = last digit of model designation (993)
75155 = seral number

I suspect there is only one 993 with last six of VIN = 375155. If the OP can find the guy with that VIN, all is good.

dave

95 C2 (VIN = xxxx..321653)
03 540i6
84 380SL

Hi Guys...sorry about that - here's the full VIN: WP0RC2993TS375155. Looks like the car was sold by Porsche Premier in Coral Gables, Florida.

Thanks for all the help! I'd love to get this to the current owner.
