Where is the engine number located on the Wuling Zhiguang?
2 Answers
Wuling Zhiguang's engine number is located on the right side of the cylinder block, near the transmission and oil pan, on a small platform below the right intake pipe. More relevant information is as follows: 1. "Wuling Zhiguang" is the first domestic model independently developed using advanced domestic technology with the support of the Pan Asia Technical Automotive Center, a joint venture between General Motors and SAIC Group. 2. "Wuling Zhiguang" is one of the first domestic models to pass the "Frontal Collision Occupant Protection" test certification without airbags, and it underwent comprehensive vehicle testing and verification according to the most advanced international automotive technical specifications, fully representing the advanced technology of the product.
When I was helping out at the auto repair shop the year before last, I often dealt with customer complaints about the Wuling Guang, and found that the engine number location was quite regular. First, you need to open the engine hood and crouch down when there's good lighting. Aim your line of sight at the left front area of the engine, where a series of raised letters and numbers are engraved on the metal surface of the cylinder block near the firewall on the driver's side. The position is slightly low, so you’ll need to lean in closer to see it. It can easily be obscured by grease or dust, so I recommend gently wiping it clean with a dry cloth or tissue before noting it down. Sometimes it’s troublesome to find at night, so bringing a small flashlight can save time. The engine number is important for vehicle transfers, annual inspections, or insurance—if you can’t locate it accurately, it can cause delays. That’s why I always remind owners to ensure the engine is completely cooled before checking to avoid burns or accidentally touching other parts. Regularly cleaning this area can also extend the vehicle's lifespan.
