What is the engine number of Wuling Zhiguang?
2 Answers
The engine number of Wuling Zhiguang is located on the left side of the engine cylinder block. It is generally a combination of 7 to 8 digits and English letters. In addition to the above method, the engine number can also be viewed in the following 4 ways: The vehicle driving license has the engine number printed on it, usually located on the second last line; The motor vehicle registration certificate will state the engine number; The car purchase invoice will state the engine number; The vehicle purchase tax payment certificate will state the engine number. It should be noted that the engine number is not the same as the engine model. The engine model refers to the specifications and size of the engine within the manufacturer, and the engine model can be the same. The engine number refers to the production number of the engine, and each engine can only use one engine number, and the number of each engine is different.
I've been driving the Wuling Rongguang for several years now, and the engine number is something I keep in mind. It's actually a unique string of characters engraved on the engine block, usually in a mixed format like 'L2B123456'—where the prefix indicates the engine type and the suffix is a serial number. My model, purchased in 2020, is equipped with a 1.5L gasoline engine, model L2B. Finding it is simple: open the hood, locate the engine block on the right side near the front of the car, and wipe off the dust with a cloth to clearly see the engraving. Every time I go for an inspection or maintenance, the 4S shop asks for this number. Why is it important? It's not only used for matching vehicle records and insurance claims but also for verifying authenticity when buying a used car. I recommend owners take a photo and back it up on their phone or cloud storage to prevent corrosion and fading. Additionally, the L2B series engine itself is quite durable, but the engine models for different year versions of the Wuling Rongguang may vary—for example, earlier 1.0L models are more fuel-efficient. When performing maintenance, matching the exact model number for parts can save you a lot of hassle.
