Engine Number/Engine Characteristics
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2016 Volkswagen Beetle, 2015 Volkswagen Beetle, and 2014 Volkswagen Beetle. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Engine Number
The engine number ("engine codes" and "serial number") are located at the engine/transmission joint.
The engine code is also printed behind the oil filter on the cylinder block.
There is also a label glued to the timing chain cover with the "engine code" and "serial number".
The first three digits describe the mechanical structure of the engine and are still stamped on the engine. The fourth digit describes the engine output and torque and depends on the engine control module. Four-digit engine codes are found on the type plate and vehicle data label. It can also be read via the engine control module.
