Where is the engine code located on the BAIC BJ40?

The engine number of the Beijing BJ40 is located as follows: Open the hood and find the nameplate, which is generally on the fan frame at the front of the vehicle, either on the right side of the engine compartment or in the middle. It contains information such as the engine number, production date, displacement, and vehicle model. More details about the Beijing BJ40 are as follows: 1. In terms of appearance, the BAIC BJ40, with its hardcore SUV style, features many right-angle designs, exuding a strong masculine vibe. 2. For the interior, as an off-road model, it doesn’t have overly luxurious decorations. The simple and rugged design style is reminiscent of the "Wrangler." The switches for the windows and central locking are designed as toggle levers, giving a very retro feel. 3. In terms of power, the BJ40 is equipped with a 2.4L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum power of 105kW and a maximum torque of 217Nm, paired with a 5-speed manual transmission. The new vehicle also features a mechanical part-time four-wheel-drive system and adopts a body-on-frame structure. Additionally, the Beijing Jeep BJ40 has a five-link non-independent rear suspension, providing better support for extreme off-roading.
Last time when helping a friend inspect a car, I encountered this issue - the BJ40's engine number is indeed quite well hidden. The specific location is on the rear side of the engine block near the firewall, and you'll need to stick your head into the engine bay to see it. For older models, a flashlight might be necessary since that area is backlit. If there's mud buildup on the chassis or rust stains, it becomes even harder to identify - I'd recommend using a lift at a repair shop for better visibility. Off-road vehicles tend to be like this; even the Grand Cherokee's engine number is hidden in a similar spot. One important reminder though: when making a rubbing, it's best to use specialized rubbing paper as ordinary tape tends to blur the edges of the numbers.
