Where is the engine number of the Geely Vision X3 located?

The engine number of the Geely Vision X3 can be found on the plane where the cylinder block and the transmission housing meet, at the lower left side of the front end of the engine. It usually consists of a combination of 7 to 8 digits and letters. In addition to the method mentioned above, the engine number can also be checked in 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 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, however, refers to the production number of the engine. Each engine can only have one engine number, and the number of each engine is unique.
I remember helping a friend locate the engine number on his Geely Vision X3. We spent quite a while crawling under the car searching for it. The engine number is actually engraved on the engine block, near the connection point between the engine and transmission, close to the exhaust pipe side. You'll need a strong flashlight to look upwards - there's a row of raised alphanumeric characters there. Just be careful not to reach in right after turning off the engine, as the exhaust pipe gets hot enough to roast sweet potatoes. Some owners take the easy way out by going directly to the DMV for a rubbing - the staff will press an inked rubber pad against that spot to make an imprint of the number. If checking it yourself, I recommend wearing gloves since the engine compartment tends to be quite greasy.
