Just incase you are curious...

take a vin # of 3N1BN51A1YL000102

3N1= Manufacturer (3N1 = Mexico)

B = Engine Type (B= SR20DE, C = QG18DE don't know what the 2.5L is)

N = Vehicle Line (N= Nissan Sentra)

5 = Model Change (0-9)

1 = Body Type (1 = 4 door)

A = Restraint system (A = Driver and passenger air bag, 3 point seatbelts, driver and passenger side airbags; D = Same as A, minus side airbags)

1 = Check Digit (assigned by mathematical equation)

Y = Year (Y = 2000, 1 = 2001)

L = Manufacturing Plant ( L = Mexico)

000102 and up = Vehicle Serial Number (000102 = SR20DE with Side Airbag; 100002 = Sr20DE w/out side airbags; 300002 = QG18DE w/out side airbags)

I’ll also add that you can delete the history of a car from Google using special services. I found one of these on the site VIN Cleaner - Removing vehiсles history from Internet resources and they helped me remove vin information quickly and efficiently. They are open 24/7 which is very convenient.
