HERE you go.

That 10th digit is an L, designating that it is a 1990.

Unfortunately, you cannot know if you have FE3 from the VIN, you need the build sheet.

hey brando thank you very much....
in this site i like the way olds owners help each other
pitly we don't have any buildt sheet
is there any way to try to understand by looking in lower parts of vehicle by lie down to cars under :?
and one question more i discovered when we turning steering wheel to limits like when making parking to a small area to fit the car i heard a click sound from in front of the vehicle... but that doesnt make sound when the steering is in not limits...when we turn it to limits its always clicks from frontside... or maybe it can be something else?

Well....there's not really much to see from underneath....the steering was tighter, the gear ratio inside the rack and pinion was changed...but that's on the inside...really no external differences.

As for the clicking noise....if you turn it too far one way and it does that....that's normal.

You cant find the FE3 option in the vin code, look in your trunk under the mat for a sticker that says parts indentification codes and FE3 will be there if your car has it.

under the mat? I've never seen a sticker in there....

check and see... I think FE3's had REAR SWAY BARS. Dont quote me, on that, but I know they at least had HEAVIER sway bars in the front.

You likely would have had a badge on the rear trunk lid, unless the car has been painted.

Thats where they are on many GM cars of this time period, they also can be in the glove box, on the inside of the trunk lid, and in the center console (Corvette). The stickers were used to replace build sheets (broadcast sheets for those Chrysler owner out there). Build sheets were phased out and by 1990 they were no longer used. Nearly all the info on my build sheet is also found on this sticker.
