VIN-koodista selviää valmistusmaa, ja muutama muu asia. En ehtinyt kääntää koko tarinaa suomeksi. 9. merkin avulla on "helppo" selvittää, onko VINniä muutettu.

Check Digit Information. To determine check digit (9th digit) of your car you need to take the VIN and assign any letters in the VIN with a set value (number) as follows
A = 1, B = 2, C = 3, D = 4, E = 5, F = 6, G = 7, H = 8,
J = 1, K = 2, L = 3, M = 4, N = 5, O = 6, P = 7, R = 9,
S = 2, T = 3, U = 4, V = 5, W = 6, X = 7, Y = 8, Z = 9
Any numbers in the VIN remain the same (not replaced) and thus you have a 17 digit number.
Then you must multiply each of the 17 digits by a set "weight" (multiplier). The weight applied to each digit is as follows
1st = 8, 2nd = 7, 3rd = 6, 4th = 5, 5th = 4, 6th = 3, 7th = 2, 8th = 10,
9th = 0 (check digit), 10th = 9, 11th = 8, 12th = 7, 13th = 6, 14th = 5,
15th = 4, 16th = 3, 17th = 2
Laske saadut tulot yhteen, jaa summa 11:llä, jakojäännös on tarkistusmerkki. 10=X
