Problem with MINI VIN decoders

Is anyone else having issues with these two MINI VIN decoders? I can't get either one to work for me anymore

http://myminivin.com

http://bimmer.work

Thanks for any help

Bryan

bimmer.work works just fine for me. Your link for some reason has a /b after it. That is probably why it doesn't work for you.

Welcome. That cache also holds the pop up data and robot data so some things don't load up right, good point Minnie

Look under "Tools" at the top of this page and you'll find a VIN decoder.

I have tried that one, it's not a complete decoder, lots of options that are on my cars are not listed in the results
