This is my VIN:
6MMAP57P32T014319

What does AP in the VIN mean???

Those two letters normally signifies the series of the vehicle. Your VIN is not in my book, but I would guess it may stand for "Asia Pacific" ?

I thought these where supposed to identify the car line & series (like TJ/KJ).
Are there any Australian websites that check VINs??

i tried those 2 websites and got the same info.
www.autocheck.com
