MAHLE Security label

MAHLE security label with all components including the HDI star, MAHLE logo in rainbow coloring, Lenscode (last two digits are visible only with a special filter), and the serial number matches the last 6 digits of the VeoMark.

MAHLE engine components are now available with new security labels, with increased protection against counterfeit products.

With our new security labels, you can quickly verify whether you have an original package from MAHLE or a fake.

Verification at a glance

Compare the digits of the random code to the VeoMark information:

- Do the last 6 digits match the serial number on the VeoMark?

- Do the last 2 digits match the LensCode? The LensCode becomes visible when you place the included special filter over the label and rotate it.
