Hi guys,

I found in the Dialogys info on what the plate means in newer renaults.
However nothing about the one in R19 Confused
Its called the Vehicle identification plate and on mine its located on top of the right headlight or so to speak. Anyone know what those numbers and stuff mean or have a list of what they can be ?
I know they include the model (like mine says L53Y) and some more info about my car. I have them all written down and i'd like to know what they mean.....any info from the experts? Very Happy

im asking for a breakdown of this plate:

It says in the dialogys that this info applies to plates in cars manufactured after 1996, so there must be different info on my plate
