Trustworthy, great price, and excellent customer service.

I was not expecting to get a result within a couple hours on a Saturday. I got an email response instantly upon ordering to confirm the serial number. Then the pin code followed not long after and the RCD 510 is working perfectly.
Very happy with the service and would highly recommend.
I'm in the UK and payment worked out at only £12.64. Great customer service and a bargain too.

Honestly, this felt like a scam, but...

Honestly, this felt like a scam, and as I have personally found, there are many of them out there. I'm in the states (Iowa) and called 2-3 VW dealerships to get my code, as well as VW support, and was inconsistently told that I would have to have my vehicle scanned with their utility, and they may, or may not be able to retrieve the PIN. I used the VWCODES.ORG site in a last ditch effort even though it had mixed reviews......I got a response back within 2 hours....on a Saturday......and the code worked immediately. Saved me drive time, shop time, and $120 of "work"....THANKS!!!!!!

I lost the PIN code to my car radio…

I lost the PIN code to my car radio during a recent house move. Last year, the car battery was changed and since then I’ve been without audio. I stumbled across Vwcodes whilst doing a bit of research online. Their response was swift and the code worked first time.

Code for my used radio in about 2 hours

They got me the code for my junkyard replacement RNS 510 in about 2 hours, saved me a chunk of money and the trouble of taking my car to the dealer. Made it so I could fix my own stuff, which is always appreciated.

Worked Like a Charm

Used these guys twice - once for an Audi Symphony II radio and then for a RNS-E. Both times, it took about 6-8 hours, but both times the code came in an email and worked perfectly. I suppose the 2-hour interval claim is optimistic, but they do come through. Great service to have.

Received nothing

Paid for the code. First it was a 2 hour wait, then I was told 7 hours more via email. It is now the next day and the only response is the generic immediate response that is worth nothing. One email has a phone number listed that is fake.

Extremely happy

Extremely happy and satisfied with my experience dealing with Vwcodes.org. Was able to side step the ridiculous pricing of dealing with the VW dealership by using Vwcodes.org. Thank you!

Legit!

I was skeptical at first and just followed a link someone gave on reddit. Bit the bullet, waited around 7 hours on a weekend and got an email with the code. Tried it out on my passat and it worked! I was pleasently surprised! Thank you from canada. You saved a radio that was gonna be scrapped with a car.

Lost code

I received a radio as a gift, but when I installed it, unfortunately the person who gave it to me didn't know the code. Thank goodness I found this site. I paid the code request on Saturday evening and the code arrived the next morning. They are fast and reliable and even the code worked! Thanks for your help! Hello from Hungary!
