Where is the engine number located on an Audi A6?
1 Answers
The engine number of the A6 is located at the lower left side of the engine, near the flywheel position. The engine model is an identification code assigned by the engine manufacturer in accordance with relevant regulations, enterprise or industry practices, and engine attributes, to represent information such as the manufacturer, specifications, performance, characteristics, technology, purpose, and production batch of a group of identical products. This includes details like fuel type, number of cylinders, displacement, and static braking power. It is 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 product line, and multiple engines can share the same model. The engine number, however, is the production serial number of the engine, with each engine having a unique number that cannot be duplicated. Composition of the vehicle engine number: Front section: Includes the product series code, generation symbol, and regional or enterprise code. Manufacturers may choose appropriate letters as needed, but these must be approved and recorded by the industry standard regulatory body. Middle section: Consists of symbols representing the number of cylinders, cylinder arrangement, stroke, and cylinder diameter. Rear section: Comprises symbols indicating structural features and usage characteristics. Tail section: Distinguishing symbol. If differentiation is required within the same product series due to improvements or other reasons, the manufacturer may select an appropriate symbol. The rear and tail sections can be separated by a hyphen (-).
