Where is the engine number located on the Ford EcoSport?
2 Answers
The engine number of the Ford EcoSport is located on a small plate on the inner side below the front passenger door, usually consisting of a combination of 7 to 8 digits and letters. In addition to the above method, the engine number can also be checked in the following 4 ways: The vehicle's driving license will have the engine number printed on it, generally located on the second-to-last line; The motor vehicle registration certificate will state the engine number; The car purchase invoice will state the engine number; The vehicle purchase tax payment certificate will state the engine number. 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, and the engine model can be the same. The engine number refers to the production number of the engine, and each engine can only use one engine number, with each engine's number being unique.
I remember working on the Ford EcoSport several times. Its engine number is usually engraved on the front part of the engine block, specifically on the metal surface visible near the fan side after opening the hood. Sometimes it's covered by oil stains or dust, so you need to wipe it clean with a cloth and use a light to locate the engraved number. I've helped car owners find it during my work, and many tend to overlook this detail, especially during annual inspections or vehicle transactions when the DMV requires this number for verification. If you can't find it, don't panic—check the owner's manual diagrams, as some models have it engraved near the timing chain cover. Regularly cleaning the engine area can prevent visibility issues; it's a simple habit that saves a lot of trouble.
