Where is the engine number located on the Ford Mondeo?
2 Answers
Ford Mondeo's engine number is located on the side of the engine block, below the throttle on the right side of the engine. It usually consists 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 4 ways: The vehicle's driving license contains the engine number, usually located on the second 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 should be noted 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 engine models can be the same. The engine number refers to the production number of the engine, each engine can only use one engine number and each engine's number is unique.
I remember when I used to drive a Ford Mondeo, the engine number was usually affixed to the engine block itself, mostly on the side of the engine block or near the transmission. To be more specific, you'd need to pop the hood and look for the area on the metal surface where the number is engraved—it's typically quite noticeable. The engine number is crucial for the vehicle, especially during registration, transfer, or insurance processes, as it helps verify the car's identity and prevents issues like cloned cars or problematic engines when buying used. The exact location can vary slightly depending on the model year; older Mondeo models might have it on the firewall, while newer ones are easier to locate. Make sure the engine is cool before searching to avoid burns, wipe away any oil or dirt with a cloth, and use a flashlight for better visibility. If you can't find it, don't worry—check the owner's manual for detailed diagrams to save time and effort.
