The engine identification character and the engine number can be found on the sticker -arrow- at the timing case.
The engine number consists of up to nine digits (alphanumeric). The first part represents the „engine code“ (a maximum of 3 identification letters), the second part the „serial number“. If more than 999.999 engines with the same engine code were produced then the first digit of the six part section will be replaced by a letter.
Vehicles with four-digit engine identification characters
Four-digit engine identification characters are used. The first 3 digits refer to the mechanical construction of the engine and are type-punched onto the engine as done previously. The fourth digit refers to the output and torque of the engine and depends upon the engine control unit. You can find the four digit engine identification characters on the vehicle data sticker → BookletYeti and on the engine control unit.
