How to Obtain a VW Radio Code With a New VAG Beetle


1. Locate your VW owner's manual which should be in your glove box. On the opening page is a card that has the radio code written down on it. The code is written down when you buy the vehicle from the dealership.
2. Obtain the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) of the VW and write it down if you can't find the radio code in the owner's manual.
3. Remove the radio from the vehicle and write down the radio serial number. This is the reason why Volkswagen charges you so much to obtain your radio code. If you can do this part yourself, you will save a substantial amount of money.
4. Contact your local Volkswagen dealership and inform them that you cannot find your radio code and that you have your VIN number and radio serial number on hand. They should be able to give you the radio code. Write the radio code down so that you can enter it into the radio.
