try to have a look in ur manual book, or try to find out which dealer did the previous owner buy the car from, then ring them up they should be able to give u the code

Rego should be enough.

but sometime they prefer VIN rather then REGO coz some car has got too many rego changed since new ................

mind you we bought the car 2nd hand from a car yard (not an actual honda dealer). in that case should i call the local official honda dealer? Trivett classic honda in sydney
