Where is the engine number located on the H5?
2 Answers
The engine number of the H5 is located on the cylinder block at the side of the engine timing cover. It is generally a combination of 7 to 8 digits and letters. In addition to the method mentioned above, the engine number can also be checked through the following 4 ways: The vehicle's driving license has the engine number printed on it, usually located on the second-to-last line; The motor vehicle registration certificate will state the engine number; The purchase invoice of the vehicle 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 engine models can be the same. The engine number, however, refers to the production number of the engine, where each engine can only have one unique engine number, and every engine's number is different.
I remember it was quite a hassle to locate the engine number in the Haval H5's engine bay. It's usually positioned on the front part of the engine block, near the radiator or fan belt area. After opening the hood, you'll need to bend down and look inside to find a metal plate or a sequence of numbers directly engraved on the engine body. Sometimes the dust buildup makes it hard to see, so you might need to wipe it clean with a cloth or use a small flashlight for better visibility. The engine number serves as the vehicle's unique identifier and is essential for registration or maintenance. If you can't find it, first check the manual for diagrams. If that doesn’t help, consult a professional auto repair shop to avoid delaying important matters.
