Decrypting your Sprinter Van VIN
We’ve confirmed this works for NVC3 from 2010 - 2018. T1N sprinters are a bit tricky as well as those Dodge years that happened with both T1N vans as well as NVC3 vans. The newer VS30 2019 - present varies a bit. We’ll try and update this posting as we find out more information. We hope this is a good cheat sheet to deciphering your VIN.
