Beijing Hyundai ix35's engine number is on the label paper of the engine hood, and the steel stamp is on the engine block. Introduction to engine number: The most accurate name of the engine number is the vehicle identification number, which is the vehicle's ID card, similar to a person's ID number. Each vehicle has its own unique combination of numbers and letters; Composition of engine number: It consists of 17 digits and letters. According to the principle of permutation and combination, it will not repeat within 30 years; Function of engine number: Its role is to effectively identify the vehicle. Procedures such as vehicle transfer registration require this set of numbers.
I just helped a friend check the engine number of the ix35, which is engraved on the metal surface of the engine block. Usually, after opening the hood and standing at the front of the car, look towards the lower right side of the engine, and you'll find a 7-9 digit alphanumeric combination stamped in steel. My 2019 model's number is on the side of the cylinder block near the radiator, while older models might have it near the exhaust pipe. When searching, you need to clean off any surface grease and use a strong flashlight to see it clearly. If you really can't find it, check the second page of the vehicle license copy or the third page of the motor vehicle registration certificate for the complete record. Remember not to confuse it with the 17-digit VIN under the windshield—a beginner once made that mistake during a vehicle inspection.
I just dealt with this last week when transferring the vehicle at the DMV. The staff had me drive the car onto a lift and used a mirror to inspect the casting area at the rear of the engine from underneath the chassis, which was much easier than searching in the engine bay. However, if you're doing it yourself, I recommend wearing gloves and first cleaning off the accumulated dust and oil sludge on the left side of the engine—especially the platform near the transmission connection. Some car enthusiasts say using a phone to take a video inside can provide a clear view, but personally, my attempts always turned out blurry. The simplest method is still to check the vehicle conformity certificate—it's printed clearly in the middle of the first page.
