VW Touareg, 2007, 2.5 R5 TDI - Engine number location - Damien roberts
Please could someone tell me where I can find the embossed engine number on the above vehicle please
I have an engine number on the documents but I am trying to establish if the vehicle I have purchased has had a massive bodge engine change as parts I have purchased from the reg don’t fit

Thank you

Engine number is around the joint between engine and gearbox

And theres a sticker on the cylinder head,

And it should be on the van sticker
