Where is the engine number of the Great Wall Fengjun 5?
2 Answers
The stamped engine number of the Fengjun 5 vehicle is located on the cylinder block at the lower right side of the ignition coil. In addition to the above method, the engine number can also be viewed in the following 4 ways: The vehicle's driving license contains the engine number, usually located on the second-to-last line; The motor vehicle registration certificate will state the engine number; The purchase invoice will state the engine number; The vehicle purchase tax payment certificate will state the engine number. It is important to note 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, with each engine having a unique number that differs from others. The engine number consists of four parts, each representing different meanings. The first part includes the product series code, update symbol, and regional or enterprise code, which are selected by the manufacturer as needed and approved by the industry standard authority; the middle part consists of symbols for the number of cylinders, cylinder arrangement, stroke, and cylinder diameter; the rear part includes symbols for structural features and usage characteristics; the tail part is a distinguishing symbol used by the manufacturer to differentiate between products in the same series due to improvements or other reasons.
I remember it was quite a hassle helping a friend locate the engine number on his Great Wall Wingle 5. It's usually on the side of the engine block near the driver's side, in a rather tricky spot – you'll need to open the hood and crouch down to find it. Once at a repair shop, I saw a mechanic remove the air filter box to get a clear view, as the stamped numbers were completely covered by a layer of grime. Later, I learned that diesel and gasoline versions have slightly different locations – gasoline engines typically have it behind the radiator on the left side, while diesel versions require feeling around near the transmission connection point. It's best to bring a small flashlight and cleaning cloth, as many owners need to wipe the area clean to read those raised digits clearly. If you absolutely can't find it, the VIN number at the bottom left corner of the windshield can also provide associated information.
