Dongfeng Lingzhi's frame number can be found on the vehicle's nameplate on the B-pillar, the lower left corner of the front windshield, or on the frame within the engine compartment. The frame number, also known as the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN), is a unique code assigned by the manufacturer to identify a vehicle. The VIN contains information about the vehicle's manufacturer, production year, model, body type, engine, and other specifications. The Dongfeng Lingzhi is equipped with a 1.6L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 122 HP and a maximum torque of 153 Nm. The vehicle measures 5145mm in length, 1720mm in width, and 1960mm in height, with a wheelbase of 3000mm. It features a 5-speed manual transmission and a top speed of 140 km/h.

After driving my Dongfeng Lingzhi for a long time, the VIN is located at the lower left corner of the windshield (driver's side). From the outside, there's a small label stuck below the glass with clearly visible numbers. When you lift the hood, there's also an aluminum foil sticker with the VIN number near the firewall or on the engine cover. The fixed location is for easy annual inspection and claims, where staff often use a flashlight to check it quickly. If you frequently drive long distances, it's recommended to gently wipe off the dust with a cloth, avoiding chemical solvents that may smudge or blur the label. Sometimes there's a backup label on the inner door frame or B-pillar—taking a quick glance before getting in can save you from panic. Recording the VIN in your vehicle's file helps prevent theft and facilitates quick recovery in case of loss.

When purchasing a Dongfeng Lingzhi, the quickest place to find the VIN is at the lower edge of the windshield on the driver's side—those shiny numbers are instantly visible. Under the hood, there's also a metal tag near the radiator frame with the same number. Young enthusiasts are advised to snap a photo of the VIN with their and store it in cloud storage. This way, when buying parts or registering on apps, they can pull it up directly, avoiding the hassle of crawling under the car last minute. Newer models might come with a QR code—just scan it to auto-fill the system, super convenient. The location is generally standardized, so keep the glass clean during daily parking to avoid mud obscuring it; a little light will do the trick. For accident handling or selling the car, this number is a must-have ID—keep it noted in your pocket to prevent oversight or mishaps.

When repairing, the Dongfeng Lingzhi VIN is commonly found at a fixed position on the left driver's side of the windshield, or labeled on the firewall in the engine compartment or the front beam. Clean off any oil stains and illuminate with a light for easy reading, avoiding scratches. The VIN is used for matching spare parts, and its precise location simplifies the repair process. If unclear, visit an authorized shop for a replacement label to prevent misreading and warranty issues.

I use my Dongfeng Lingzhi to pick up kids and buy groceries. The VIN is on a small sticker at the bottom left of the windshield, or on a label near the radiator when you open the hood. Clean the glass gently without applying too much force to avoid smudging the numbers, which would make them hard to read. You'll need it for claims and registration, so I copied it in advance and keep it in my wallet to avoid last-minute panic. The location is simple and easy to remember, making it great for new drivers to check before hitting the road.

Driving the Dongfeng Lingzhi for over a decade, the VIN is securely located at the lower left corner of the windshield, with an equally important backup label on the firewall in the engine compartment. Recording the VIN in the manual for backup is highly practical, preventing vehicle identity confusion or accident handling. For daily cleaning, use a soft cloth to gently wipe to prevent rust; if the location becomes unclear, promptly visit a 4S store for a replacement sticker.
