can i find the engine model from the vin?
A Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) is the string of 17 numbers and letters that an automobile manufacturer assigns to an individual vehicle. The VIN can reveal a number of things about a car, including its airbag type, country of origin, engine size, model year and trim level. The VIN also is key to car safety.
They still have the same VIN information, but in slightly different spots. Typically the engine, vehicle series, body type, restraint system, and model are the ones to watch out for. The country, make, check digit, year, plant, and serial number are usually in the same positions regardless of the vehicle manufacturer.
