Where is the engine number located on a Volvo XC60?
2 Answers
Volvo XC60's engine number is located on the engine block. It typically consists of a combination of 7 to 8 digits and letters. In addition to the above method, the engine number can also be checked through the following 4 ways: The vehicle's driving license contains the engine number, usually printed on the second-to-last line; The motor vehicle registration certificate will state the engine number; The car purchase invoice will indicate the engine number; The vehicle purchase tax payment certificate will also state the engine number. It's important to note 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's range, and engine models can be the same. The engine number, however, refers to the production serial number of the engine. Each engine can only have one unique engine number, and no two engines share the same number.
I've encountered this issue before, and locating the engine number on a Volvo XC60 does require some skill. After opening the hood and crouching down to inspect, you'll typically find this number engraved on the engine block near the pulley area, specifically on the metal surface at the front of the engine. However, the location may vary across different model years. I recommend using your phone's flashlight to check the area to the right of the crankshaft pulley. If the engine is too dirty to see clearly, try wiping the surface with a damp cloth. Don't worry if you still can't find it - the vehicle registration certificate and the VIN label in the lower left corner of the windshield also contain backup records of the engine number. I remember helping a friend check once, and we eventually found his 2019 model's number hidden in a tricky spot near the firewall at the rear of the engine.
