Where is the engine number located on the Skoda Superb?
2 Answers
Skoda Superb's engine number is located on the right side of the engine, in front of the motor. 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, generally located on the second last line; The motor vehicle registration certificate will indicate the engine number; The car purchase invoice will indicate the engine number; The vehicle purchase tax payment certificate will indicate 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, where each engine can only use one engine number and each engine's number is unique.
I remember when I first bought my Skoda Superb, I also struggled to find the engine number. Later, after opening the hood, I found it engraved on the front left side of the engine block—a small metal plate with the serial number clearly visible. That time, I even burned my hand because I was in a hurry and didn’t wait for the engine to cool down. I highly recommend shutting off the engine and waiting at least half an hour before checking, or it’ll be scorching hot. The location is quite well-designed, similar to Volkswagen models, making it easy to verify during repairs. If you can’t see it clearly, oil or grime might be covering it—just wipe it with a damp cloth. Keeping this number clean is crucial for confirming the car’s identity during resale or warranty claims, so don’t end up making unnecessary trips to the dealership like I did.
