Where is the engine number located on the Bestune X40?

The engine number of the Bestune X40 can be found by removing the right front wheel and the lower section of the fender. Then, look upwards along the engine timing cover to see two sets of numbers, which are the engine numbers. These typically consist of a combination of 7 to 8 digits and letters. In addition to the above method, the engine number can also be viewed through the following four ways: The vehicle's driving license displays the engine number, usually located on the second-to-last line; The motor vehicle registration certificate records the engine number; The car purchase invoice includes the engine number; The vehicle purchase tax payment certificate also records 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 identical. The engine number, however, refers to the production number of the engine. Each engine can only have one engine number, and every engine's number is unique.
As a mechanic with over a decade of experience, let me clearly explain the location of the Bestune X40's engine number. You'll typically find the stamped number on the left side of the engine near the transmission connection point - it's quite hidden. The best viewing angle is from above while semi-squatting. The stamp is located on the crankcase housing, and sometimes oil buildup can obscure it, so I recommend spraying some carburetor cleaner before making a rubbing. For brand-new vehicles that are difficult to access, remember the vehicle's nameplate contains corresponding records. I've seen people mistake the power steering pump's location - the correct spot is actually closer to the firewall direction. If you encounter starting issues, never force it - visiting the 4S store promptly is the safest approach.
It was quite a hassle helping my friend locate the X40's engine number last time. After opening the hood, you need to look towards the lower left near where the engine block meets the transmission - the number is stamped directly into the metal. Bring a strong flashlight and a folding mirror, as you'll need reflected light to read some angles. The engine number is also printed on the Certificate of Conformity in the spare tire well, which can sometimes be easier. Veteran mechanics warn that these number locations follow standardized placements - don't scrape around blindly if you can't find it to avoid scratches.
