VIN Decoder & RPO Codes


Recommended Posts

As an update, I used the chat option on the GMC website and requested a build sheet for my 2016 Sierra and they emailed it to me with no problem.

I did the same, had the build sheet emailed to me in 10 minutes. Just in time as I see my old girls 4th birthday is coming on September 26! Hahahaha

I went to gmc.com, open a chat, gave them my vin and asked for a build sheet. They gave me this list. It has the RPO codes as well as what they mean. Seems like an easy way to get the definitions of any you dont have.

Old post but I thought I'd add my experience

 

I sent an email to [email protected] and put "2018 Sierra 4x4 build sheet request (put vin number here)" in the subject. You get a reply within three business hours with a nice PDF of your build sheet. All codes listed and descriptions beside the ones installed on your truck.

I just did this for my new to me 2017. Worked like a charm! Thanks.

QR Code on Certification Label Offers More RPO Codes

http://sandyblogs.com/techlink/?p=9801

Beginning with the 2018 model year, a QR code was added to the Certification label (Fig. 3) on all Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet and GMC models. The new QR code includes the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN), RPO codes and other information that identify the content of the vehicle. In previous model years, the Service Parts Identification (SPID) label, often located in the trunk or glovebox of a vehicle, included this information.

You can't take an RPO code list from 2004 and apply it to a 2014 model.  The 2004 was current in 2004 and codes often change from year to year and model to model not to mention have a completely difference meaning from car to truck and GM division to GM division.    For instance,  everyone sees G80 on a list as Limited Slip Differential but in trucks and SUV's it means Locking Rear Differential.    

 

Also, there are often RPO's that cannot be deciphered as they are really not options but components used in assembly of the vehicle.  Keep in mind that the usage of that SPID label is "Service Parts Identification".    

 

I have seen list published on the web that are 30 yrs old.  Make sure the reference you use covers the year vehicle you have.

Been trying various techniques to get my build sheet.  First tried the PM to the GM rep here.  

 

Sent email exactly like Zoomie did last night at work.  Got my 4 page PDF early this morning.

Hey guys, first time posting to this forum.  Thanks a bunch for making me aware I could chat with GM customer service and request the build sheet!

My recently traded 2003 Sierra had the original build sheet in the glove box.  Now I have the build sheet for my new 2018 Denali.

So far, I’ve learned it was Mexico built in week 27.  I assume that means the 1st week of July.  The exterior is “Glory Red Tint-2”, rather than Quartz Red Tintcoat.  The interior color is cocoa and maple sugar, (much better tasting than dark sand), and it does have code NKC, noise control system, active noise cancelation.

I’m really loving my new truck.  The old, owned from new, 2003 Sun Blast Yellow SLE was a pampered beauty with only 90,000 miles in 15 years.  Nonetheless, even though the old truck still drove like it did the day I brought it home, there is no comparison with my 2018 Sierra.

I knew I wanted a Denali, really liked the Ulitmates, but, living here in Georgia, I just didn’t think I needed (or wanted) 4WD.  I also wanted the 6.2L.  Who wouldn’t want a Corvette drive train in his new truck?  It took some looking, but I finally found my (almost an Ultimate) 2WD 6.2.  Near as I can figure my truck is the same spec as an Ultimate except for 4WD, 22” wheels, and chrome tow hooks. It did come with (CF5) power sliding sunroof, (BRS) retractable power running boards and, (RTL) upgraded chrome 20” DENALI embossed wheels.  I have the OEM Chrome tow hooks on order along with the OEM drivers side assist handle.

I think my 2WD 6.2L is a bit of an odd duck, but its my odd duck.  I noticed that, right now anyway, one can only get a 6.2L - 2019 Denali if they spec it with 4WD.  I wonder how much less my 2WD weighs than a 2018 6.2L 4WD Denali Ultimate?  Anyone know how to get the actual as specified curb weight of a new GMC truck?

I just logged onto the GMC site, Owner Center area, and hit the online chat button. Within 10 minutes of asking them for a build sheet, and giving them my VIN and email address, I had a 7 page build sheet with codes and descriptions for my 2016 Sierra.

 

Just adding on that this method still works.
