2 Answers
The engine number of the Changan Honor is printed on the engine block, and it can also be found on the vehicle's nameplate and certificate of conformity. The arrangement and content of the engine number may vary depending on the manufacturer, but it generally includes the engine model, production date, and a randomly assigned serial number given when the engine comes off the production line. In terms of body dimensions, the Changan Honor measures 4360mm in length, 1685mm in width, and 1850mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2750mm, a minimum ground clearance of 170mm, a maximum horsepower of 106ps, and a maximum torque of 135nm.
I remember when I first tried to locate the engine number of my Changan Honor, I was a bit worried, but with the guidance of an experienced driver, I managed to find it easily. It's usually hidden on the engine block under the hood, mostly on the front or left side of the cylinder block. After opening the hood, squat down and take a closer look. You might find some dust covering the numbers, so you'll need to wipe them with a cloth to see clearly. The location is near the fan pulley or the engine intake manifold, with slight variations from car to car, but generally, it's in the core part of the engine. It's best to prepare a flashlight before searching, as it's not very conspicuous, especially in dim lighting. Knowing this location is important, such as when verifying the number during vehicle maintenance or insurance registration to ensure it's the original part and hasn't been tampered with. Here's a little tip: if you've searched everywhere and still can't find it, don't panic. Check the owner's manual or drive to a 4S store to ask—they can quickly point out the exact location. Regular engine maintenance is also key to car care, and keeping the engine clean can extend its lifespan.
