Okay so I went to Mercedes benz today for a VMI and was all excited, I go to service wait there and when a service rep finally gets to me, all flustered he tells me they don't give out VMI's anymore, something to do with privacy issues ect.... So I told him okay and thanks for the help.

I then walked over to parts where they printed out the VMI without a single problem.. LOL

This VMI is for my 91 w124 and it has a bunch of service records and the dealer code. I want to know what dealership it was originally sold from but how do I go about decoding it? It's "Selling Dealer: 05638" I tried googling it but I'm not getting anything. Any advice?
