Finding your Production date (ORGA/DAM)

On the basis of this date it can be determined exactly which car parts are applicable to your vehicle. The ORGA number, Dam number or ORP number (Replacement Parts) started with number 0001 on November 9, 1976. From that day on, the ORGA number has been increased by 1 every day. From 1980 Citroën DS Peugeot has applied the four-digit ORGA code in all its cars.
