Where is the VIN located on the Haima M5?
2 Answers
The VIN of the Haima M5 is located on the left side of the front windshield. The VIN, also known as the Vehicle Identification Number, consists of a unique set of 17 alphanumeric characters. This number is used to identify the manufacturer, engine, chassis number, and other details of the vehicle. The Haima M5 has a body length of 4698mm, width of 1806mm, height of 1477mm, and a wheelbase of 2685mm. It is equipped with a naturally aspirated 1.6L engine coded HM474Q-C, which delivers a maximum power output of 92 kW at 6000 rpm and a peak torque of 151 Nm.
The VIN number of the Haima M5 is usually hidden in several places, and I've summarized some experience from checking many of the same model. The most obvious location is the lower left corner of the front windshield—stand at the front of the car looking towards the driver's seat, and you'll see a 17-digit alphanumeric combination in the corner of the windshield. If the glass is covered by tint film, don’t worry. Open the hood and check the front bulkhead in the engine compartment—there’s a clear VIN code engraved on the metal frame near the windshield. Some owner’s manuals may mention a third location, such as under the floor mat on the passenger side or inside the right front wheel arch, but these spots can be more troublesome to access. Remember, during vehicle inspections at the DMV, they often use the OBD port to read the electronic VIN, but for self-checking, I recommend the first two locations—they’re always accurate.
