The engine number of the Great Wall Florid is located at the right rear of the engine where it connects to the transmission. You need to remove the air filter box to see it. It is usually a combination of 7 to 8 digits and letters. In addition to the above method, 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 state the engine number; The car 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, however, refers to the production number of the engine. Each engine can only have one engine number, and each engine's number is unique.

I remember helping my neighbor locate the engine number on a Great Wall vehicle. The serial code is usually hidden under the hood. You'll need to open the engine compartment and search around the area where the engine connects to the transmission. The spot is quite concealed—typically, you'll need a flashlight to illuminate the lower right metal surface of the engine, where a combination of letters and numbers is engraved. If there's too much dust, you might have to wipe it clean first to see clearly. If you can't find it from the top, sometimes you'll need to lift the car and check from underneath the chassis; it might also be visible on the engine block near the exhaust pipe. If you still can't locate it, I'd recommend visiting a repair shop—they have the experience and won't scratch your car.

Last time I went for the annual inspection, they checked the engine number. The staff told me it's located at the lower right side of the engine bay. To be specific, when you stand facing the front of the car, look near the right suspension strut tower. There's a flat metal surface with raised numbers engraved on it. You'll need to clean off any grease to take an imprint—just press a piece of white paper over it and rub with a pencil to get the number. When washing your car, you can wipe that area to prevent dust buildup. The exact position might vary slightly depending on the model year of the Brilliance, but for both the 2009 and 2011 models, it's in the same general area, just at different heights. Remember to turn off the engine before looking for the number to avoid getting burned.

The engine number is particularly important for vehicle transfer, and on the Brilliance, it is usually located on the side of the cylinder block. Follow the ignition coil downwards, and near the oil filter, there is a stamped platform. Before taking the imprint, you need to remove the engine cover and spray the surface with carburetor cleaner. Some cars may have the number obscured by heavy oil stains; in such cases, using a stiff brush dipped in gasoline to scrub a few times will reveal it. If you can't manage it yourself, look for a broker near the DMV; spending twenty bucks will get it done quickly and effortlessly.
