VW Bora Radio Codes

The Bora shares its Golf Mk4 underpinnings, including Beta and Gamma era radios that lock on any power cut. These older units decode from the VWZ serial exactly like modern VWs.

How to find your Volkswagen serial number

The guide below will show you exactly where to find your Volkswagen radio serial number.

Remove your radio
Step 1
Remove your radio
Insert radio release keys into the corner slots and apply gentle outward pressure, or use a flat-head screwdriver and prying tool depending on the unit. The radio slides far enough forward to read the label. You do not need to disconnect any wires.
Find your serial number on the label
Step 2
Find your serial number on the label
Your serial number is on a sticker on the side or rear of the casing. It starts with VWZ and is 14 characters long, for example VWZ1Z2H1234567.

Enter it into the box above and we will do the rest.

Note: the capital letter I and the number 1 look very similar on these labels. Check carefully before entering.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Why does my VW Bora radio say SAFE?
SAFE is the anti-theft lock mode. It appears when the radio loses power, for example after a flat battery or a battery change, and clears once the correct 4-digit code is entered.
The radio is a cassette unit from 1999. Can you really still decode it?
Yes. Beta and Gamma era units decode from their VWZ serial the same way as any modern RCD, and the code never changes for the life of the unit.
What does the serial number look like?
All VW radio serials begin with VWZ and are 14 characters long, for example VWZ1Z2H1234567. The label is on the side or back of the casing. Watch out for the capital letter I and the digit 1, which look almost identical on these labels.
The radio shows 2 SAFE and will not take the code. What now?
The unit has locked after too many wrong attempts. Leave the radio switched on for about an hour and it will accept the code again. Enter it carefully using the preset buttons.
