2 Answers
BYD F0 engine number imprint is located on the nameplate inside the engine compartment under the hood, generally consisting of a 7 to 8-digit combination of numbers and English letters. In addition to the above method, the engine number can also be viewed through the following 4 ways: The vehicle license shows the engine number, usually located on the second last line; The motor vehicle registration certificate will indicate the engine number; The car purchase invoice will indicate the engine number; The vehicle purchase tax payment certificate will indicate the engine number. It should be noted that the engine number is not equal to the engine model. The engine model refers to the specification and size of the engine in the manufacturer, and the engine model can be the same. The engine number refers to the production number of the engine, each engine can only use one engine number and each engine's number is different.
I remember last time when I transferred the ownership of my BYD F0, I had to take an imprint of the engine number, and it was quite a hassle to find it. The location is on the right side of the engine block, which is the passenger side, near where the engine connects to the transmission. I had to lie under the car with a flashlight to locate it—there's a series of raised numbers and letters engraved on the flat surface of the block. On older cars, it might be covered in grime, so you’ll need to spray some carburetor cleaner to clean it first. If you can’t reach it from underneath, you can also take a photo with your phone’s flash to see it clearly. It’s best to prepare a specialized imprint strip, apply some red ink, and press it gently—never use a pencil for the imprint, as the DMV might reject it.
