Open catalogVINsearch gives automotive professionals in Germany online access to 52+ official EPC catalogs from a single login. With around 49M vehicles in operation on the road and ~38,000 workshops, Germany's left-hand-drive (LHD) repair trade depends on fast, accurate OEM identification across many brands at once.
The Germany automotive market
Germany sees about 2.8M new vehicles/year, and the best-selling marques are Volkswagen, Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Audi, and Opel. A typical workshop or parts counter handles several of these in a single day — and needs the right catalog for each.
Local vehicles are built to Euro 6/7 emissions and EU type-approval and run in four-season conditions, so the correct part depends on the exact EU-spec build. A multi-brand EPC that resolves each VIN removes the guesswork that drives parts returns.
How VINsearch fits Germany workshops
One subscription replaces a shelf of separate brand tools:
- Decode any VIN to the exact factory build, whatever the marque
- Pull genuine OEM numbers with current supersessions
- Quote panels and assemblies from exploded diagrams
- Work in German or English, in the browser, on any device

EPC catalogs in Germany — FAQ
Which car brands can I look up in Germany?
All of them. VINsearch covers 52+ EPC catalogs — including Volkswagen, Mercedes-Benz, BMW, and Audi — so you can identify parts for every major marque sold in Germany from one account.
Is VINsearch suitable for small workshops in Germany?
Yes. It is browser-based with no installation and a single flat subscription, which suits independent workshops and parts counters that cannot justify a separate dealer tool per brand.
Can I see prices in EUR?
VINsearch focuses on parts identification (OEM numbers, diagrams, fitment). You and your supplier price those numbers in EUR; the platform makes sure you are quoting the correct part in the first place.
