Hi All

It’s probably been covered before but can someone help explain what the model variants are for the T6 please?

ie what is the difference between the SGA, SGH, SHA, SHH?

Thanks
 
SGA - T6 Panel van SWB (Short Wheel Base)
SGH - T6 Panel van LWB (Long Wheel Base)

SHA - T6.1 Panel van SWB
SHH - T6.1 Panel van LWB

Respectively passenger carriers have their own designations... T6: SGB, SGJ, SGM, SGN and T6.1: SHB, SHJ, SHM, SHN
 
T6.1 update

SHA1 Panel van SWB​
SHH1 Panel van LWB​
SHB1 Kombi SWB​
SHJ1 Kombi LWB​
SHBS Caravelle Trendline SWB​
SHJS Caravelle Trendline LWB​
SHBT Caravelle Comfortline SWB​
SHJT Caravelle Comfortline LWB​
SHMG Multivan Comfortline SWB​
SHNG Multivan Comfortline LWB​
SHMH Multivan Highline SWB​
SJE1 Platform SWB​
SJL1 Platform LWB​
SJD1 Doppel LWB​

Note: the above doesn't specify vehicles gross weight (T28/T30/T30.8/T32). It's specced by a dedicated option code, e.g. for T32 PG1 or PG2 (found on build sheet). The latter possibly goes along with 17-inch chassis (incl. e.g. bigger brakes) option 2E4.

T6.1 Engine (diesel) and transmission combos as suffixes to above

E2 81 kW man 5​
F1 110 kW man 6​
F5 110 kW man 6 4Motion​
F7 110 kW DSG​
F9 110 kW DSG 4 Motion​
M7 146 kW DSG​
M9 146 kW DSG 4Motion​
H7 150 kW DSG​
H9 150 kW DSG 4Motion​

E.g. SHH1M9 = Panel van LWB 146 kW engine DSG 4Motion

The information extracted from Finnish Volkswagen website (15.1.2021).
Added 150 kW engine+DSG combos H7, H9 (21.3.2021).

Is the model/variante reported in any sticker or label? My one should be a SHB1 but that is nowhere in the official papers or in the door stickers. No sticker under stearing wheel . All I have is the VIN, the type 7HC (that is same from T5.0 to T6.1) and an e-code e1*2001...

@Pauly can provide your build sheet if you upgrade to VIP
 
OK, sorry, English is obviously not my native language.
Please let me try again.
Where is any sticker with the model/variante information located?
 
OK, thanks. I hope I undersodd correctly.

Then it looks like that this is an info that is not (any more?) available to the common user.

-There is no sticker of any kind under the steering column. I have a LHD. I checked also under the glovebox.
-The paper (and the online-VIN coded) user handbook is completely generic and refers to a large set of models. BTW it is even not up to date with the last 6.1 setups.
-The build sheet is not readily available.

Another VW "black magic" .
Never mind, I can live with that.
