To read a VW engine serial number, locate it on the engine case, usually near the generator stand or on the left side of the engine. The serial number typically starts with a letter indicating the engine type, followed by a series of numbers that provide information about the production date and specifications. For instance, an engine number starting with "AE" signifies a specific model type, while the following digits can indicate the year and production sequence. Cross-referencing the serial number with a VW engine code chart can help identify the engine's details.
The engine serial number is located on the case under the oil filler neck. The engine number is located on the side of the sump. You may need to clean the area to read the number.
