SEAT EPC is the online ETKA (VAG) catalog for SEAT, available worldwide through VINsearch. It also covers Cupra. Decode any SEAT VIN, open the exact assembly diagram, and read off the genuine OEM part number — all in the browser, with no desktop install.
What is SEAT EPC?
SEAT EPC is the electronic parts catalog SEAT technicians and parts specialists rely on to identify genuine components. Built on ETKA (VAG) — SEAT's factory parts data reaching back to vehicles from the marque's earlier model years — it maps every vehicle to its exact build via the VIN.
From engine internals to body panels and electrical connectors, every group is drawn as an exploded diagram with part numbers, quantities and supersession history.

SEAT EPC vs free viewers and aftermarket lookups
Free single-brand viewers and aftermarket cross-reference tools are fine for a rough guess, but they lag behind factory data and miss supersessions. SEAT EPC reads from ETKA (VAG) directly, so the number you see is the number SEAT currently ships — which is exactly what prevents wrong-part returns.
What a SEAT part number looks like
Numbers issued by Volkswagen Group follow one house format, so the shape of a number tells you who issued it before you open a diagram.
Format1K0 615 301 AB
Three characters for the car line (1K0 is Golf Mk5), three for the main group (615 is brakes), three for the part within it, then optional index letters for the revision.

Frequently asked questions
What is SEAT EPC used for?
SEAT EPC is used to identify genuine SEAT parts by VIN: it shows exploded diagrams, OEM part numbers, quantities and supersession chains for every SEAT model and year.
Do I need to install anything?
No. SEAT EPC on VINsearch is web-based (no install). You log in from any browser — there is no desktop software, dongle or dealer credential required.
Does SEAT EPC include older SEAT models?
Yes. Because it is built on ETKA (VAG), the catalog includes historic SEAT models alongside current ones, with factory supersessions so discontinued numbers resolve to their current replacements.
Is it the official catalog?
VINsearch provides online access to the official ETKA (VAG) dataset. The data is the manufacturer's; VINsearch is the independent access platform that makes it usable in the browser worldwide.
