Obtaining build details using VIN

[Paul22]

Many moons ago I remember seeing on this forum a link which enabled you see the build details of a Ford vehicle.
The link used a VIN to show details of the vehicle as it left the plant.
Can anyone recall that link?
I'd be most obliged if you could post it again for me
Thanks

Email the above with your vin. Your full name address and contact number. They will email you back in about a week with a full build spec

I think you may be referring to Ford ETIS

https://www.etis.ford.com/

You can get basic information without having an account, but to get detailed information, you need to register and create an account.

I'm not registered, but I know there are members on here who are, so if the registration process is not easy, there may be some on here who may help you out.

Thanks guys for that info.


Unfortunately I couldn't retrieve the info I wanted.

What info are you after? There's people on here who may be able to get the info you want (not me BTW).

I remember this from a few years ago now - on this forum - that you access the vehicle build details including options fitted. It also showed the engine type, transmission, upholstery type and colour, in short, a complete picture of your vehicle.

Not having ETIS available any more still makes me very sad :(
I've got the Ford letter for my latest AU3 Futura wagon, but it only provides the Major Features, and not the Minor Features.
It has a REX entertainment system installed and their is some dispute over whether this would have been factory or dealer installed.
I was hoping it might be listed in the Minor Features to clear that up?

If anyone who still does have access to the above and would provide it for this VIN, it would be much appreciated - 6FPAAAJGWA2L29611

I'm trying to do the same for my XH S ute. I"m sure it came with Factory Dual Fuel, Aircon, Tbar auto, Factory Cruse, LSD etc etc but research via google says it no Xh came out With those. It has Giah badges but I don't know if it came from factory with those or it was added by a dealer.
