The engine number of the Chery Tiggo 5 is located on the engine block, while the chassis number is engraved on the right side of the front compartment drainage channel and on the instrument panel near the windshield. Below is relevant information about the Chery Tiggo 5: 1. As the production version of the Chery concept-β concept car, the Chery Tiggo 5 is the second model produced on Chery's T1X platform. It incorporates design elements from the concept-β, featuring a front fascia with a chrome strip that spans the large grille, connecting the left and right headlights. 2. Interior: The design style and color elements lean towards a youthful and dynamic feel, with sharply angled air vents and bold use of contrasting color schemes. The dashboard adopts an asymmetrical design, slightly angled towards the driver's side for easier operation of various functions. 3. Powertrain: It is equipped with a 1.5T engine (model SQRE4T15) with a maximum power output of 112kW (152PS), paired with either a 7-speed manual or a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.

As the owner of an auto repair shop, I often encounter Tiggo 5 owners needing to locate the engine number. Here are some practical spots to check. Crawl under the front wheel on the passenger side and look towards the engine compartment—you'll find a series of stamped numbers on the side of the cast iron cylinder block. Note that for newer engines, the number is located near the alternator under the intake manifold, while older models have it beside the exhaust manifold. Last time I helped a customer with vehicle inspection, mud had covered the number—a quick spray with carburetor cleaner made it visible. If you can't find it yourself, it's safer to have the repair shop use a lift, as crawling under the car can be risky for your head.

I remember once taking a 2016 Tiggo 5 for annual inspection, and the staff asked me to point out the engine number location. This model comes with either a 1.5T or 2.0L engine. For the 1.5T, the number is located above the junction between the engine and transmission—you can feel the raised surface by reaching your fingers under the air filter box. For the 2.0L, it's near the right side of the ignition coil bracket. If you can't find it, first clean any oil stains from the engine block, as the numbers are hard to read on the reflective aluminum surface. Keeping a marker pen handy for rubbing the number is more convenient. Definitely don't follow some people's method of using a pencil and paper rubbing, as the DMV won't accept that.

As a vehicle inspector, I remind you: The engine number of the Tiggo 5 is located at the rear end of the cylinder block. Squat beside the right front wheel, shine a flashlight toward the area behind the generator, and you'll find 15mm high embossed characters arranged vertically. The position on the newer models is three finger-widths higher than on the older ones. Recently, an owner spent three hours wiping before realizing the view was blocked by the power steering hose—simply gently push the hose aside. Remember, the first three digits of the number usually contain the engine model code.
