Finding Variant code - gwjo81 - 08-23-2026
Hello,
I would like to know how to find "variant code"
in order to check and purchase some correct parts
Does anyone know to check it in Orbit?
I appreciate it in advance.

You can ask your local volvo dealer to print the list of your car's variant codes for you.

Is it's an EU Car then:
An EU Certificate of Conformity (CoC) can contain the vehicle’s variant, although it may not be labeled exactly as “Variant Code.”
Typically, you will find:
Field 0.1: Make
Field 0.2: Vehicle type, including variant and version
Field 0.2.1: Type-approval number
Other fields provide additional technical specifications for the exact vehicle configuration.
Example:
My COC Contains what you are searching for, so good chance if yours is an EU Car, to bad if not because if have no idea what your country is using :-)

This isn't the variant code being referenced.
What they are after is what their configuration is currently set to for the respective item.
gwjo81, what component are you looking for?
RE: Finding Variant code - Terence - 08-25-2026
I assume that gwjo81 is looking for something like this. The list of codes that shows what equipment, options and hardware the car does have. Those codes are called variant codes and they are handy when you are looking for spare parts from internet.

IIRC I was able to see this using VIDA and a short subscription
I'll need to check in my prints

You can get the relevant information from OrBit. I just need a little more info to be able to help.

I had been looking for shock parts but I just bought them with oem parts,
On my side, I can't find a way of variant code and My car is from USA.
But currently I have been using it in Korea
