So, after much deliberation and comparisons of one brand to another, you still settled on one particular car model. Finally that day has come - the car is yours. After buying a vehicle, the question of what the actual volume of the engine is and whether the dealer in the car dealership has not deceived is often in the mind of a motorist.
Instructions
Step 1
To find out such an important characteristic as engine displacement, it is enough to look at the data sheet.
Step 2
The volume can also be determined by the VIN-code (individual vehicle identification number), which can be seen from the bottom of the driver's door arch (if, of course, this very door is open), under the rear seat or directly under the windshield, in the upper left part of the dashboard (in this case, the code you are looking for can only be seen from the outside of the machine).
Step 3
Some "craftsmen" may advise you to unscrew the candles and pour water to the eyeballs: how much water fits, this is the volume. Do not take such advice seriously. This is actually just an old joke.
Step 4
If you took a used car, then the data from the registration certificate may not correspond to reality. Who knows, maybe the car was involved in an accident, maybe some technical work was carried out with the car that affected the characteristics of the engine. Or maybe it is generally assembled from several vehicles. The volume of the engine in such cases can be determined as follows: a volume can be cast in large letters on the cylinder block at the back (it follows from the hole at the bottom of the back).
Step 5
Still, the most correct way to determine the engine size is to check by the VIN code, which was written about above. After reading a number of useful tips, you will no longer have any questions regarding such an important characteristic of a car as engine displacement.
