Where the BMW VIN number is located

Many BMW owners do not know where the VIN is located. The most common locations for the unique number are:

  • door pillar;
  • inside driver's door pillar;
  • top of the dashboard where the driver's side windshield begins;
  • under the hood.

If you cannot find the code on the car or not all of its symbols are legible, the VIN is always indicated in the vehicle documents.
