Civic VX VIN Info
So you've found a Civic Hatchback that you want to buy online but don't know for sure if it is a VX model...Well look no further, you've found the Answer-all thread to see if a stock, unmolested car is a VX. All you need to do is check the VIN.
Here's the breakdown of the first 8 numbers of the VIN:
The 10th digit indicates the model year:
The engine code stamped on the block to the left of the exhaust manifold (Red Arrow) will be D15Z1. http://img119.imageshack.us/img119/3...ocationiq1.jpg I hope people find this very useful for finding/buying a VX. :thumbup: :D DISCLAIMER: This information will hold true for a vehicle beings sold with it's original drivetrain only! I cannot guarantee accuracy if an owner has swapped a motor or transmission. And as always YMMV (Your Mileage May Vary). |
Thanks for the info TomO.
To ensure that I understand it correctly, kindly decode the following VIN number for me: 2HGEH2368SH509070 Thx, Z. |
Not sure how soon Tom would answer but from the 2hgeh236 numbers it should be a 92 model VX. Not sure about federal or California emissions but that should be on the emissions label on the drivers door jam or under the hood.

According to decodethis.com it's a 1995 Civic DX HB 5 speed.

Thanks for the link conehead433!
It's interesting that that VIN doesn't come up as a VX, Zuhaha. It is possible that there is an error either on the site or with the VIN theory about VXs. Update: After reading into the HOnda VIN decoder more, it can be a DX as well if it has the EH236 in the VIN. |
Your first note says "1992 only" for the EH236 tag. So to be a VX, you'd have to have specifically: 2HGEH236**N (where ** are any 2 digits/letters); all other 2HGEH236 would not be a VX.
If I interpret your note correctly. -soD |
