However, the VIN comes back as a 2.8 TD built January 26, 1999. ZFA23000005683570 |

So, this is a 1999. The VIN underlines the chassis code, which is [230] for this generation. |

Are other Van derived Minibus listed as Van or Bus? Anyway does the VIN give the power output? To state if a 2.8 D, TD i.d. or JTD. |

Answering your questions in order. 1. Not sure ![]() 2. See above. I believe a 2.8 D? Also, Not so sure all of the Fiats utilize [230]. I found a [290]: https://en.vindecoder.pl/ZFA29000000374722 https://www.vinrush.com/en/decode-check/ZFA25000001258306/94aed also a [250]. Any idea why? Weight class? -- Last edit: 2020-10-31 14:16:30 |

Well, I'd think it's better to leave as Van here, too. Anyway, there were three types of 2.8 diesel in 1999, a naturally aspirated 2.8 D, the turbo with direct injection 2.8 TD i.d. and the common rail 2.8 JTD. The decoder says just 2.8 diesel without specifing. ![]() Edit: Well, Gamer said 2.8 TD, so I believe this is a 2.8 TD i.d. About codes, what I know is: [280] for 1982-1990 1a serie [290] for 1990-1994 1a serie restyling [230] for 1994-2002 2a serie [244] for 2002-2006 2a serie restyling [250] for 2006-2014 3a serie [295] should be 2014+ I'll research further, maybe we'll just need to run some Russian plates for each generation ![]() [290] of your link would correspond with a late first generation restyling indeed, whereas for the other one I don't know, maybe there is something wrong..from what I know these codes don't change depending on weight class or chassis type.. Also, first generation had a short wheelbase version called the Talento, which should have the same codes of the ordinary ones, however not totally sure, I'll check.. -- Last edit: 2020-10-31 17:20:01 |

I know how to use the Russian keyboard now so I just have to figure out where gamer finds the pool of vehicles he choses from ![]() |
