Default How to tell a 2001 from a 2001.5 by the Vin #.

Hey guys, is there to tell if a 2001 is a 2001.5 by looking at the Vin #?

Default Two options:

If you have VAG COM you can tell...
Or you could pull the ECU and look at the sticker on it.

H box = 2001.0
M box = 2001.5 (also, there is no F-Hose)
(those are for 6 speed)

I dont think the VIN can provide this with 100% accuracy.
