| The engine code is also stamped on the cylinder head. |
| The engine number consists of up to nine characters (alphanumeric). The first part (3 identification letters max.) makes up the „engine code“; and the second part (6 characters) the „serial number“. If more than 999,999 engines with the same engine identification letters are produced, the first of the six characters is replaced with a letter. |
| In addition, a label with the „engine code“ and the„serial number“ has been attached to the toothed belt protector. |
| As well, the engine code appears in the vehicle documents. |
| Vehicles with four-digit engine codes |
| Four-digit engine codes are now being used, starting with the letter "C". The first 3 positions describe the mechanical structure of the engine and are, as they have been done to date, engraved on the engine. The fourth position digit describes the engine power and torque and depends on the engine control unit. The four-digit engine codes are given on the model plate, the vehicle data plate and the engine control unit. |
