FYI
Middle digit 906 is in the electrical section, but is more specifically
Fuel Injection Electronics. 133 is specifically Mechanical Fuel Injection
items.

There have been rare instances when:
1. VW would supersede a later suffix back to an earlier one or drop it
altogether.
2. VW would actually modify a part but not supersede to a newer number
and/or add a suffix. A good example is the Brake/Clutch Pedal Pad 311 721
173 A. Earlier versions were the more well-known rounded rectangular
version. In the late 70s, it was replaced with wedge-shaped version with
the horizontal ridge lines commonly seen on Vanagons.
There have been many instances where I have found several VW Mexico numbers
are identical to the German/USA counterpart. Example is the Bus 76-79 &
Vanagon Interior Light Mexico BAA 947 105 is the same as German/USA 823 947
105 B.
