Vehicle and engine identification

The engine code and number are located on a sticker on the toothed belt guard -arrow- or on the engine bracket (right engine mount when viewed in the direction of travel of the vehicle).

Note: The letter designation and engine number are also stamped on the cylinder block, namely on the left side under the junction of the cylinder head with the block. In addition, the engine code can be found in the vehicle data sheet in the service book and in the spare wheel well.

The data plate -1- is located in the engine compartment on the right wheel arch support cup; for IBIZA - on the left support cup of the wheel arch.

Vehicle identification number (vehicle chassis number) -2- is on the left (at the IBIZA car on the right) support cup of the wheel arch and is additionally visible under the left wiper blade when viewed from the outside.
