Quote:General searching using Model

When you search for information based on Model, the search result will be wider and less specific than when using Chassis ID. To get more specific information you need to manually enter values for variant, Chassis number series, or other parameters.

Note! (Applies only for Volvo Trucks) From and including December 2005, new model names are introduced; FM and FH. All old model names remain and will not conflict with new models when searching in the information in Volvo Lorry. If you want to perform searches on the new models, FH and FM shall be used, and you then need to select the variant depending on engine size or horse power.

Note! We recommend that you use the Chassis ID when you search in the Navigator. The system filters away non-relevant information and the user does not need to select a variant at all.

Searching using Chassis ID/Model in Parts information

Chassis-unique parts information (from and including week 35, 2003) is produced in such a way that Volvo Lorry filters away non-relevant information and the user does not need to select a model or a variant. The information can be found at all function group levels, but the major part is within the 3-digit level (i.e. 511).

Note! Parts Information based on Chassis ID is available for all USA-built vehicles and for vehicles built after week 35, 2003).

Catalogue-based parts information (produced prior to week 35, 2003) is based on the chassis number series that was previously used in the parts catalogues, which is always found within the 2-digit function group level type (i.e. 51). If you want to search for Parts information based on Model, we recommend that you select a 2-digit function group level to give a more accurate search result (i.e. 51).
