AUDI A4 VIN Location | Where to Find the VIN Number
Find your AUDI A4 VIN fast: check the dashboard, driver door jamb, and engine bay. Quick tips to locate and verify your VIN.

Your AUDI A4 VIN is usually in four spots: driver’s side dash (seen through the windshield), driver door jamb/B-pillar at the front door hinge height, engine bay on the right shock/strut tower, and in the trunk under the carpet (spare wheel well).
After you find the 17-character VIN, verify it with the Audi A4 VIN Decoder to confirm the car’s exact details and avoid mismatches.

Driver’s Side Interior Dash VIN
The Driver’s Side Interior Dash VIN is the quickest AUDI A4 VIN location to check. Stand outside the car on the driver side and look through the lower corner of the windshield. The VIN sits on top of the dashboard, right near the glass.
You’ll see a small metal plate with the 17-character VIN. Wipe the glass if it’s dusty, and use your phone flashlight if the light is bad. If the plate looks scratched, loose, or the numbers don’t line up cleanly, compare it with the door jamb label to make sure it matches.
Engine Bay VIN Stamp
The engine bay VIN stamp on an AUDI A4 is usually the best place to confirm the VIN is real, because it’s harder to change than a sticker. Open the hood and go to the right side of the engine compartment, then look around the right shock/strut tower (shock absorber dome).
You’ll usually find a stamped VIN on the body metal or a fixed plate nearby. Use a flashlight and look from a few angles, because dirt and shadows can hide the characters. Wipe the area gently with a cloth so you can read the full 17-character VIN.
After you find it, match it to the dash VIN and the door jamb label. If any character is different, stop and verify the VIN with the Audi A4 VIN Decoder on ProVinDecoder before buying parts or doing paperwork.
Trunk VIN Location
The trunk VIN location on an AUDI A4 is under the trunk floor. Open the trunk, grab the edge of the floor panel, and lift it up. Then pull back the carpet so you can see the metal floor area.
Most often, the VIN is on a label in the spare wheel well or on the under-floor panel. Use a flashlight, because the print can be faint or dusty. If the label is torn, bubbly, or looks freshly replaced, treat it as a red flag.
Expand Driver Door Area VIN Label
The driver door area VIN label is one of the most common AUDI A4 VIN locations. Open the driver’s door and look on the door jamb/B-pillar area, right around the height of the front door hinges. You’re looking for a factory sticker or plate with the 17-character VIN and build info.
