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
Remove the surrounding trim panels and slide the unit out of the dashboard. Depending on your model you will use a flat-head screwdriver, a prying tool, or radio release keys inserted into the corner slots. VW release keys are the most common method and can be bought cheaply online.
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. All VW serials start with VWZ and are 14 characters long, for example VWZ1Z2H1234567. Enter the full serial including the VWZ prefix.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Where Is the Serial Number on a VW Tiguan Radio?
The serial number is printed on a label on the side or rear of the radio unit. It starts with VWZ and is 14 characters long. You will need to remove the radio from the dashboard to see the label. Follow our step-by-step guide above.
Which Radios Are Fitted to the VW Tiguan?
Common factory radios include the RCD 310 (VWZ2Z prefix) and RCD 510 (VWZ4Z prefix) fitted to the Mk1, and the Discover Media/Pro navigation units (VWZ6Z or VWZGZ prefix) found in the Mk2. All use the same code retrieval process.
How Do I Enter the Code on My VW Tiguan?
Switch the ignition on with the radio displaying a code prompt or SAFE. Use preset buttons 1 to 4 to enter each digit, then press and hold the FM or SCAN button to confirm. The radio will unlock immediately.
My VW Tiguan Radio Says SAFE 10. What Should I Do?
SAFE 10 means the radio is in a lockout state after too many wrong attempts. Leave the ignition on for one hour. The lockout will clear and you can then enter the correct code.
Will the Code Work for a Second-Hand Radio I Fitted to My Tiguan?
Yes. The code is tied to the VWZ serial on the radio label, not to the vehicle VIN. Provide the serial from your specific unit and we will retrieve the correct code regardless of which vehicle it came from originally.
Can I Get a Code for a VW Tiguan Discover Media or Discover Pro?
Yes. Navigation units fitted to later Tiguans use VWZ6Z or VWZGZ serial prefixes. Enter the full 14-character serial including the prefix and we will retrieve your code from the database.
