The engine number consists of up to nine characters (alphanumeric). The first part (maximum 3 letters) represents the "engine code" , the second (six digit) is the "serial number". If more than 999,999 engines with the same engine code are produced, the first of the six characters is replaced with a letter.

In addition, a sticker with "engine code" and "serial number" is affixed to the timing belt cover.

The engine code is also included on the vehicle data plate.
