Engine Number/Engine Characteristics

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 Volkswagen Beetle. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The engine number ("engine code" and "serial number") are located at the engine/transmission joint.

The engine code is also printed behind the oil filter on the cylinder block.

In addition, a label with the "engine code" and "serial number" is affixed to the intake manifold.

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

Vehicles with Four Digit Engine Codes

Four digit engine codes beginning with the letter "C" are used. The first three digits describe the mechanical structure of the engine and are still stamped on the engine, as before. The fourth digit describes the engine output and torque and depends on the Engine Control Module (ECM). The four digit engine code is on the type label, the vehicle data plate and the ECM.

NOTE: For the vehicle data plate location, refer to the Maintenance Procedures, General Information.
