Is the PCNA VIN build sheet decoder dead for us?
One of my many time wasters was to use this link when I saw an interesting Porsche for sale that included the VIN in the ad. I haven't used it in a few weeks and then tried today. Now all I get is the Porsche dealer locator map. If you click on the link, you'll see what I'm taking about. If you put in your actual VIN, you'll get the same thing even if you used to get the build sheet. Has anyone else noticed this? Oh well, it was good while it lasted!

Porsche has a habit of reorganizing things making links into its site dicey. I used to link directly to the PET, now I'm lucky if three levels up is still the same.

Someone on Planet-9 was asking the same question, so it's not just you.

Here is another way to get it to work:
BTW, I added " " around the URL's so the forum software doesn't convert them to a hyperlink. Ignore / delete them in your work area. Here is the actual link from PaulE's first post: "https://admin.porschedealer.com/reports/build_sheets/print.php?vin=WP0Axxxxxxxxxxxx" Copy this to a text editor of some sort. Delete the "S" from https. "http://admin.porschedealer.com/reports/build_sheets/print.php?vin=WP0Axxxxxxxxxxxx" Now, substitute your real VIN for the placeholder "WP0xxxxxxxxxxxx" Copy and paste the revised URL into your browser. I tested this on Firefox, Edge and IE. HTH |

I have never been able to get this to work with my VIN, I get a note saying, "This vehicle is not available." Anyone else get this error?

Worked for me! Awesome, no help whatsoever.

Think the decoder has been broken for several wks now. :(
How's a Wheeler Dealer to know what options a car has? |
Here's one:
https://vinanalytics.com/ Works on most, but not mine, but has worked on all the Caymans I have checked out. |
Thanks Steve!
Your link worked for my next potential purchase. |
Yes, the PCNA link has been “temporarily down for maintenance” for a very long time. Team Oxford’s link has not been working reliably for me for a while either, so I’m going to give this new one a go, thanks!
