option codes with letters
 

I saw option codes with letters such as paint code 744U (brilliant silver), upholstery code 268A (gray leather) and general option 200A (leather). What do the letters signify?

Thanks,

Not sure about the suffix letters but if anyone is looking for a complete list of SA codes here it is -

Can anyone help get the codes for my 1979 450sl mb vin# 10704412057783 the plate is missing. HELP

If you sign up for a free EPC net annual subscription (you need to input a credit card no for id purposes), after entering your vin you can generate a 'data card' report which will show you the SA codes for your car. You used to be able to get that info at the Russian MB club site but I'm not sure it's still working.

Also, check for a code list in your OM. Usually a sticker on one of the back pages.

Thanks! What is EPC? Nothing in owners manual about codes just specs.
