    Engine number T5 2005 2.0 litre petrol engine

    Hi guys does any one know where the engine number is located on the 2.0 petrol engine T5 , I know there is one on the top of the timing case cover but I need to show the number on the block to Queensland Transport . It turns out that I have been paying rego fees for a 5 Cylinder engine for nearly ten years and mine is a lowly hard working reliable 4 cylinder . So after several failed attempts to get it sorted I need to get solid evidence on the engine . You would think that if the engine had been changed [which it hasn't] why fit a 4cylinder petrol in place of a 5 cylinder diesel . Thanks in advance .

    It's on the front side of the cylinder block, near the starter motor.

    Mine's a 1.9TDI, and the rego papers state that it's a 2.5TDI as well.

    Yes went to the Transport office again this afternoon and I explained that the last time they tried to sort out the problem they could not find the engine number dummies only had to look at the inlet manifold 4 pipes only clear as mud to me . But no they were adamant that they needed to see the bloody engine number on the block . Well today different location the nice kind lady opened the bonnet counted the pipes and said it will be sorted within 48 hours so it should be a hefty refund for nine years of over charging ,hmm wonder if I'll get interest as well ??
