BMW repair history check by VIN number - Bimma07
Hi,

I am a noobie, so please be gentle with me!

I want to check the repair history for my BMW. The main dealers can do this, by performing a lookup against my car?s VIN and running a detailed ?Vehicle History Report?, but won?t do it in the depth I require unless they receive written authorisation from the previous owner. Which probably won?t be forthcoming.

The type of information I want to find out includes the service codes, showing the issues the car had when it came in for each service.

This is an example record:

Repair History

RO # Claim Repair Date Entry Date Mileage Dealer Service Code Location
1??0?8 0?9?5 04/1?/200? 04/1?/200? 9?,5?? 1?2?8 11530115UW

Has anyone been in this position before? If so, did you manage to find out the information?

Ta,

Bimmer07
