Hi guys, I'm about to buy a 2002 Passat with a possible typo on registration papers, according to VW the engine code is a BBG (it's a 2.8 V6) but the engine number on the papers starts with BGB (BGBxxxxxx). I'm worried this could turn into a big headache. Where would I find a plaque/sticker on...

Bought the car with this error. Is that a 'phantom' code (with some other underlying issues), or 'real' (meaning that someone installed the wrong module)? How can I check what module the car SHOULD have (and then find one and install), assuming that the vagcom log shows the CURRENT (wrong?)...
