Where is the Passat engine number located?
1 Answers
The Passat engine number is located below the coolant reservoir, at the junction between the engine block and the transmission. In addition to the above method, the engine number can also be found through the following four ways: The vehicle's driving license displays the engine number, usually on the second-to-last line; The motor vehicle registration certificate records the engine number; The car purchase invoice includes the engine number; The vehicle purchase tax payment certificate also states 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's product line, and multiple engines can share the same model. The engine number, however, is the production serial number of the engine, with each engine having a unique number. The engine number consists of four parts, each representing different information. The first part includes the product series code, generation symbol, and regional or manufacturer code, selected by the manufacturer and standardized by the industry regulatory body. The middle part consists of symbols for the number of cylinders, cylinder arrangement, stroke, and cylinder diameter. The rear part includes structural and usage characteristic symbols. The tail part is a distinguishing symbol, used by the manufacturer to differentiate between versions or improvements within the same series.
