About the Audi TT

Enter the 17-character VIN of an Audi TT and the free decoder reads the manufacturer, the model year and the country of manufacture, with no registration needed. Our data covers 28 versions of the Audi TT, from model year 1998 to 2023, in Coupe and Roadster bodies, with power from 150 to 400 hp. Version names run from the Audi TT Coupe (8N) to the Audi TT Roadster (8S, facelift 2018).

A VIN does not contain accidents, mileage, theft or owners, so the decoder cannot show any of that, and that information comes from a paid vehicle history report. On a car you are looking at, compare the VIN on the car with the one in the registration papers, and check that the decoded model year fits the car in front of you.

Frequently asked questions

In which years was the Audi TT built?

Our data lists model years 1998 - 2023 across 28 versions of the Audi TT. The VIN of a particular car shows its model year in the 10th character.

Which VIN character shows the model year of a Audi TT?

It is the 10th character. For the Audi TT the characters to expect are Y (2000), 1 (2001), 2 (2002), 3 (2003), 4 (2004), 5 (2005), 6 (2006), 7 (2007), 8 (2008), 9 (2009), A (2010), B (2011), C (2012), D (2013), E (2014), F (2015), G (2016), H (2017), J (2018), K (2019), L (2020), M (2021), N (2022), P (2023).

How many versions of the Audi TT are in your data?

28 versions, in 2 body styles, with power up to 400 hp. Use the VIN to confirm which one you have.

How can I confirm which Audi TT version a car is from its VIN?

The decoder gives you the model year from the 10th character, which narrows down the versions in our list of 28. The body style, the power and the version code, such as 8J, 8N or 8S, should be matched against the registration papers, since the decoder reads only the manufacturer, model year and country of manufacture.

What should I compare between the VIN on the car and the documents?

All 17 characters should be identical, with no I, O or Q, which are never used in a VIN. Also check that the model year you decode agrees with the year shown in the papers and that the body (Coupe or Roadster) and the power match what is listed for that car.

What will the VIN decoder not tell me about an Audi TT?

It will not show accidents, mileage, theft or previous owners, because a VIN does not contain them. It also does not give you trim, equipment or exact power, so those need to be checked on the car and in its documents.
