Help me locate the Engine Serial number

GeorgePk · 02-05-2010, 01:19 AM

Hello friends,

I put the same question in the general forum with little success

so I guess as I am waiting for my E93 320i from UK to arrive its better to try the uk forum.

The car registration process for cars in my country requires that the officer reads the engine serial number directly from on the engine (log book or any other document not enough).

Can anyone here guide me to where this serial number is imprinted.

Thanks in advance

is that a 320d or a 320i. I have a 320d (e92) and i know where it is on the diesel engine.

yian77 its a 320i but I would appreciate if you tell me where yours is.

I can have a look when the car arrives. It could be at the same spot. You never know.

Thanks

Well I don’t know if the 320i has an engine cover. If it does remove it. The engine number is on the right side of the engine (as you face the engine). On the 320d is somewhere on the right of the oil stick. You have to look behind a bunch of cables and stuff to find it. Not easy to trace. Hope that helps.
