On VAZ cars, the identification number (VIN) is stamped and located in the engine compartment:
- VAZ-2101, VAZ-21011, VAZ-21013, VAZ-2102, VAZ-2103, VAZ-2104, VAZ-2105, VAZ-2106, VAZ-2107 and their modifications - on the bottom shelf of the air supply box on the right in the direction of travel
- VAZ-2108, VAZ-2109, VAZ-2110 – on the upper surface of the right pillar of the body mudguard (on the right front suspension spring support)
- VAZ-2121 - on the upper amplifier of the front panel on the right. In addition, there are options for the following location - on the upper reinforcement of the radiator trim panel, on the front panel next to the nameplate
For the first five years since the start of production of VAZ cars (1970-1975), the vehicle identification number was applied to the vertical wall of the air intake box on the right in the direction of travel.
The identification number (VIN) on VAZ cars produced before 1982 consisted of 11, 12, 14 and 15 characters. The last seven digital characters indicated the serial number of the product, and the first seven (eight) alphanumeric characters or four (five) digital characters, respectively, either the manufacturer and the car model, or the car model. Dividing marks are made in the form of five-pointed stars.
★VAZ21010000001★ I II III
★2101★0000001★ II III I—manufacturer II—car model III—product serial number
Since 1982, the vehicle identification number consists of seventeen 10 mm high characters and is enclosed between two asterisks.

The body for spare parts is always produced with its own number (seventeen characters), and the marked parts of the body for spare parts are produced without a number.
VAZ engine number
The marking on the engine is applied to a special area of the cylinder block. The labeling process is mechanized.
On engines produced before December 1974 (VAZ-2101, VAZ-2102, VAZ-2103), the marking area was located on the front upper end of the cylinder block.
Since the second half of 1975, the marking area on engines has been located on the tide of the block, to the left in the direction of travel, above the oil filter. On engines manufactured from December 1974 to July 1975, markings are found on both sites. Since July 1975, at the previous location of the engine number, only the engine technological number, consisting of three digital characters, has been applied.

On engines of VAZ-2108 and VAZ-2109 cars and their modifications, the number is located on the upper part of the rear wall of the block on the flywheel side, to the left in the direction of travel (close to the distributor breaker).
The surface of the site is subjected to mechanical processing on a milling machine before marking is applied. On the engine blocks of VAZ-2101, VAZ-2102, VAZ-2103, VAZ-21011, VAZ-2104, VAZ-2105, VAZ-2106, VAZ-2107, VAZ-2121 and their modifications, not only the platform for markings, but also surfaces for the oil filter and fuel pump.
The location of the number on the site relative to its conventional center or boundaries is not regulated.
The serial number on engines, starting with the VAZ-2108, must be between two asterisks (dividing marks). The distance between the outer digits and asterisks on each side, as well as the distance between individual markings, should be no more than half the width of the digit.
From 1984 to 1985, on VAZ-2108 car engines, the placement of signs in the number was carried out in two lines, then from 1986 - in one line.

The year of engine manufacture is indicated by letters of the Latin alphabet. In the number designation (in particular, on VAZ-2108 engines and its modifications), the letter indicating the year of manufacture is located immediately after the model index, and the number looks like this: “2108f* 0000001*. The letter F indicates that the engine was manufactured in 1985.

Since 1987, it began to be applied in the number not to all engines, but mainly to those that entered the domestic market, since car importing countries asked not to include a letter of the Latin alphabet indicating the year of manufacture in the designation of the engine number. Abroad, the presence of a letter in the number immediately after the model was perceived as a modification of the main model. In this regard, since 1987, the plant practically ceased to indicate the year of manufacture on VAZ-2108 engines, since there was no clear distinction between products that were to be sold on the domestic market and those that would be sold abroad.
According to available information, until 1987, the engine number was indicated by seven characters. After the production of 10 million cars, the problem of switching to eight-digit numbering arose. However, this is not easy to do due to the need to completely replace the marking equipment.
Therefore, it was decided from the beginning of 1987 to start engine numbering again (as in 1970) from “zero”. In order not to confuse the year of manufacture of the engines of the old family of VAZ cars, you should pay attention to the information about the casting date of the cylinder block. It is located on the right side of the engine block, is laid when the block is cast and has the following appearance:
D VAZ 01 07 85 N 2106
The block casting date almost always corresponds to the engine release date, since the difference between the block casting and the release of the finished engine does not exceed 15-20 days.
The strength of stamping numbers with numerator stamps is regulated by engine marking technology. In this case, the magnitude of the stamp indentation force is 560 N, the depth of indentation (implementation) of the stamp into the metal is no more than 0.3 mm.
In the numerator, the stamps are ring disc. All seven disks, assembled together, form a “package” in which the disks are assembled and arranged in such a way that their working surfaces form a sphere of a certain radius. When marking an engine, the sphere seems to roll over the surface of the pad on the block, leaving imprints of the stamps in accordance with the order of the stamps in the package, the totality of which forms the engine number. The platform is run in the same way when applying the engine model index. Before entering the next number in the numerator, the stamp is changed by rotating it around its axis and bringing the next number to the level of the contacting surfaces between the stamp and the pad. Changing stamps and bringing the numerator to the desired level are carried out automatically.
The numerator has finger-type stamps. They are secured and held by a rotating head (chuck). To stamp the number and bring the head to the surface of the engine block, it turns alternately in one direction or another around its axis, bringing the required stamp to the site. At the moment of complete and correct alignment of the contact surfaces, some branding occurs forward towards the surface of the block, and the desired brand comes to the level of direct contact with the engine block. The extension of the mark ends with direct contact and the formation of an impression on the block area. Subsequently, the rotating head moves slightly from left to right relative to the block and at the same time the stamp is changed by turning the head and placing a new one according to the programmed program. Everything repeats itself again. In this way, all the markings on the engine block are stamped, after which the rotary head completely moves away from the processed block.
- VAZ 2107 engine carburetor: characteristics and repair
Markings are applied to engine blocks immediately before their assembly.
Separate units - spare parts intended for sale through retail chains or workshops - do not have numbers stamped on them. They only have a technological number located on the front end of the engine block and consisting of three characters, which serves for the correct selection of pistons.
If individual characters are incorrectly applied in the engine marking designation (problems in the operation of numberers associated with untimely replacement of the brand), they are eliminated. The area of metal on which the sign to be destroyed is located is punched. Then the desired sign is stamped by hand, and a similar stamp is used. At the factory, one, the last two (when changing in the tens number), the last three (when changing hundreds) digits, etc. can be corrected. If the entire number is incorrectly applied, it is cut off with an emery wheel of a grinding machine to the depth of the relief image and then stamped new number. If only part of the sign(s) is displayed in relief, then the non-displayed part is finished off. The plant maintains a file cabinet in which engine numbers with corrected errors are recorded.

With careful operation and timely maintenance, the service life of the 2103 engine exceeds 125 thousand km, set by the factory, does not reach 180-200 thousand km. The main differences between the 2103 and 2101 engines are the increased block height by 8.8 mm from 207.1 mm to 215.9 mm to accommodate the installation of a crankshaft with an increased piston stroke, thereby increasing engine capacity to 1.5 liters. As shown in previous articles, the problem of camshaft wear naturally occurs in Lada engines.

Since there is no tensioner in the chain drive, it is necessary to tighten the chain, the engine also requires constant (every 10 thousand km) adjustment of the valve clearance, in this regard, hints of a VAZ 2103 car sound when the engine is idling from the driver’s seat. with the hood closed. Many people have questions about why the valve should be adjusted, the answer is simple. power will decrease, fuel consumption will increase, the valve will burn out a few more pleasures of life. Adjustment of the VAZ 2103 engine valves should be carried out by a master or with your own hands. As for the other dilemmas, so that Arber does not destroy the ozone layer, they constantly require CO regulation so as not to clean up. It often happens that the VAZ 2103 engine heats up, detects a problem in the pump, 99% seems like oil. Often when a 2103 engine is tripled there are more circumstances that you like better, more often than not the valve is burning and you end up needing to measure the compression to avoid the main engine showing. Some VAZ 2103 engine failures repeat the 2101 obstacles due to their close relationship. In order not to miss a more working version of the drawing, read about the 2101 engine here. However, it is generally accepted that the 2103 engine is more reliable, not requiring the middle of the traditional engine range, and given the price of spare parts for the VAZ 2103 engine, it should not be surprising why the classic still drives our streets to this day.READ How much oil to fill in the VAZ 2115 engine

The selection rule was to heat the usual one, in the lower configuration, when the piston stroke is large, not only the cylinder diameter, it is necessary to take the lower shaft with a phase of up to 270, the lift valve is larger. This engine will get quite high torque, city driving will not be much better than standard, office high speed will disappear. Which camshaft to choose for the lower classes, Estonian 1, Niva 213 shaft is suitable for something else similar in characteristics. Many inexperienced car enthusiasts are interested in: where exactly is the engine number on the Lada Priora? With the horse configuration, we accordingly select a wide horse shaft with a huge lift valve. The Mastermotor 48 camshaft fits into the standard head without any modifications, it is not similar to the 480 OKB engine. Search for purchase and sale numbers for VAZ engines. More often than not, additional work will be required. The disadvantage of wide-phase shafts is the thrust on the bottoms: the larger the shaft, the more terrible it comes from the bottom, it is not rough at idle, but by losing the bottoms, we gain more power at the top. In which direction you should not, in general, decide for you, the basic principles of acceleration of the 2103 engine, which are not very popular, were presented to you simply inaccessible.

Classic compressor
Compressor 2103 inflates your Lada cheaply; There are pre-installed kits in stores with a pressure of 0.5, not 0.7 bar from the turbo. Setting the classic compressor to 0.5 bar is sufficient so that the conventional one does not require improvement, since in the cinema, in combination with a modified cylinder head, the engine produces more than 125 hp. All measures are against this method.
Turbo classic
This is, without a doubt, the most expensive way to get a VAZ 2103 in first place. Where the Skoda engine number is 1.8T, it is always found at the doors of the Skoda Octavia. Then we will get a turbo kit for classics, prices from 1.5 thousand. Most kits are based on the Garrett GT17 turbine, cost without modification of the piston, but blow up to 0.5 bar. Here the compressor in the classic is more rational. The location of the fuses and relays where the relay number is located is a spark plug relay. If the complete modification of the 2103 engine is completed, with piston replacement, installation of the correct turboshaft (phase 270-280, maximum lift), this kit will give up to 1.4 bar with a power of over 140 hp. The cost of such alterations will cost more than the car itself, not even taking into account the chassis, boxes and brake system of accounting programs, and not everything else #128512;

What engines did the “fives” come with?
Throughout its history, the VAZ 2105 came off the assembly line with five different engines:
- 2101;
- 2105;
- 2103;
- 2104;
- 21067;
- BTM-341;
- 4132 (RPD).
They differed not only in technical characteristics, but also in the type of design, type of fuel consumed, as well as the method of supplying it to the combustion chambers. Let's look at each of these power units in detail.
The VAZ 2105 engine has a transverse arrangement
More about the design and characteristics of the VAZ-2105: https://bumper.guru/klassicheskie-modeli-vaz/poleznoe/vaz-2105-inzhektor.html
Engine VAZ 2101
The first unit installed on the “five” was an old “penny” engine. It did not have any special power qualities, but it had already been tested and proved to be excellent.
Table: main characteristics of the VAZ 2101 engine
Engine VAZ 2105
The “five” had its own power unit specially developed. It was an improved version of the VAZ 2101 engine, characterized by a larger cylinder volume with the same piston stroke.
Table: main characteristics of the VAZ 2105 engine
Engine VAZ 2103
The “three-piece” engine was even more powerful, however, not due to an increase in the volume of the combustion chambers, but thanks to a modified crankshaft design, which made it possible to slightly increase the piston stroke. A crankshaft of the same design was installed on the Niva. VAZ 2103 engines were equipped from the factory with both contact and non-contact ignition systems.
Table: main characteristics of the VAZ 2103 engine
Engine VAZ 2104
The power unit of the fourth Zhiguli model, which was installed on the VAZ 2105, differed in the type of injection. Here, not a carburetor was used, but electronically controlled injectors. The engine has undergone some changes regarding the installation of components for injection supply of the fuel mixture, as well as several monitoring sensors. In all other respects, it was practically no different from the carburetor “three-piece” engine.
Table: main characteristics of the VAZ 2104 engine
Engine VAZ 21067
Another unit that equipped the “five” was borrowed from the VAZ 2106. In fact, this is a modified version of the VAZ 2103 engine, where all modifications were reduced to increasing power by increasing the diameter of the cylinders. But it was this engine that made the “six” the most popular car due to its reasonable ratio of the amount of fuel consumed and the power developed.
Table: main characteristics of the VAZ 21067 engine
Engine BTM 341
BTM-341 is a diesel power unit that was installed on classic VAZs, including the “five”. Basically, such cars were exported, but they could also be found here. The BTM-341 engines were neither particularly powerful nor low in fuel consumption, which is apparently why diesel Zhigulis did not take root in the USSR.
Table: main characteristics of the BTM 341 engine
Engine VAZ 4132
Installed on “five” and rotary engines. At first, these were prototypes, and then mass production. The VAZ 4132 power unit developed twice as much power as all other Zhiguli engines. For the most part, “fives” with rotary engines were provided to police units and special services, but ordinary citizens could also purchase them. Today it is rare, but you can still find a VAZ with a 4132 engine or similar.

Where is the engine number on a VAZ?
Knowing where the car engine number is located is useful for any motorist; it is especially important to know its location when buying a car, as well as repairing and replacing the engine.
Finding the engine number on VAZ cars is not difficult, the main thing is to know where to look. On the first VAZ 2101, 2102, 2103 cars, the engine number is located on a special area of the cylinder block, later on cars 2104, 2105, 2106, 2107, Niva, VAZ began to put the engine number above the oil filter. On the eighth, ninth and tenth series of VAZ cars, the engine number is printed on the top of the rear wall of the block, next to the distributor breaker.
From a verbal description, of course, it is not easy to immediately understand where the engine number is on a VAZ, so I propose to consider the location of the engine number on various car models.

Engine number location
Decoding the engine number, as you can see, can tell us a lot, but where is the engine number? The engine number for each brand is located in different places, but finding it is usually not difficult.
If you are wondering how to find the engine number, then the most reasonable way would be to open the service book of your car. But if you bought a used car, and this book was not given to you upon purchase, or if it is written in another language, and you still do not understand where the engine number of your car is, then in this section you will learn general recommendations for finding the engine number , as well as how to find the engine number on domestic cars and the foreign cars presented above.
General recommendations
It is very difficult to say with 100% probability where the engine number of your specific car is. This is either a stamped number on the cylinder block itself, or a plate. We need to look for them. They are often located under the oil dipstick and are very dirty.
In order to be able to read it, you need to peel off a layer of dirt. This must be done carefully so as not to damage the inscription itself. If you are not confident in yourself, or simply do not want to scrub off a layer of dirt, you can pay money to a specially trained person who will do it for you.
It is not always possible to find out engine numbers using the VIN code. Usually only the model is indicated there. This is correct. Should it be possible to replace the motor when it wears out?

Where is the engine number
Sometimes a car owner is faced with the question of where the car’s engine number is located. It can be found by viewing the technical documentation. When a vehicle is released, the manufacturer provides a package of documents. This includes an operating manual that contains this information. It can also be found on the engine itself.
Every car owner should know the place where you can view the digital combination. In case of a stop by traffic police officers, they were able to compare it with the data specified in the technical passport.
By buying a vehicle on the secondary market, knowing where the license plate is located, you can protect yourself from various awkward situations when they might sell a stolen car.
Chevrolet
On some Chevrolet vehicles, the manufacturer places the engine code next to the dipstick for measuring the oil level in the crankcase. Often the area near the oil dipstick is very dirty. Therefore, it may be difficult to check the code.
There are two ways to clean engine oil that has become ingrained during operation:
- On one's own. To do this, you need to make a solution of soap and hot water. Apply the resulting solution to a rag or sponge and wash off the dirt;
- With the help of professional car wash services. The car wash staff has chemicals and special equipment that can be used to clean contaminants in inaccessible places.
IMPORTANT: When trying to clear the code from stubborn oil yourself, you must prevent water from getting on the electronic sensors and ignition elements. Moisture ingress can lead to a short circuit and failure of the part.
Where can the digital number combination be located?
The document indicating that the car has passed state registration usually indicates the engine number. If it is missing, you can use the data from the technical passport. When purchasing a used car and the former owner did not provide an instruction manual, it can be found on the Internet. It must match this model.
If you need to find the location of the engine number directly on the unit itself, you should do the following: open the car hood and find a plate on the engine where it can be written. For different models it is located in different places. It can be:
- Cylinder block, or near it;
- Belt cover;
- Bottom of the oil level dipstick;
- The point of contact between the engine and the gearbox;
- Air intake;
- Engine suspension eye;
- Intake manifold;
- Radiator coolant pipe.
Older models have a special aluminum plate, small in size, where all the vehicle data is indicated.

Only by engine number. You can send a request to VAZ, but it’s difficult, and it’s not a fact that they will answer. There is an easier way. As far as I understand, the car is a '99 model. We look at the date of issue of the PTS. It contains the engine number. If the PTS was issued in 99, then the engine is original. If the PTS has changed, then we find out the reason for the replacement. Is it because they changed the engine? Is the idea clear?
PS. My car is just '99. Collected in July. All units are original. You can compare the engine number. If the numbers are slightly different, it means the engine is from '99.

The idea is clear, but it hardly fits in my case. My title is actually 1979. In the technical passport, in the “special notes” there is a note - converted from a VAZ 2101. I can’t believe that the 79 engine is very well preserved, although anything is possible? engine 4117667, one guy tried to “punch” my number, it turned out that there was no such thing among those manufactured at VAZ, although he made a reservation that in that database there were no engines manufactured for spare parts. So here's the problem.

How can I find the number on the engine?
When buying a car at a dealership, you can ask the dealership employee about the place where the engine number is stamped. Even if he doesn't know it, he will make every effort to please the customer.
If you buy a car at a car market, when drawing up a document about the purchase and sale or a general power of attorney, you need to ask the seller where to look for the engine number of his car.
If the engine is not very dirty, you can clean it at home by moistening a rag in a special solution.
Washing an engine when a large layer of dirt has accumulated is a rather complicated procedure. Then it is better to wash the power unit at a car wash. This is the only way to examine all the cavities and secret places.
Service station specialists involved in major repairs of engines of different brands of cars can also tell where it may be located.
At the station where diagnostics and examinations are carried out during MREO, they will show this place. Since they are engaged in reading license plates, registering and registering cars, they will help the owner for a small fee.
In some brands of cars, for example, in Ford, the engine number is located in such a way that its search must be carried out using a mirror with a long lever. This location is located under the oil filter. It is covered by a special metal plate that protects the oil pan. If there is no mirror, you will need to remove this plate to identify the number, which will take some time.
When buying an American vintage car, many owners do not even realize that the engine number is missing. When stopped by a traffic police inspector, this fact must be indicated. To prove your words, a statement is written to the management of the traffic police. Attached to it are certified copies of documents indicating that the car was purchased. Sometimes such cars were taken from their owners into the penalty area.
Then a request is written to the manufacturing company and tuning studio in the country where it was purchased. You need to ask them to document that a specific car was purchased by a specific person.
Also additionally attached is a technical document confirming registration until the moment when the “upgrade” began and indicating its condition. This task is quite painstaking. To carry it out you need to be patient and have some time.
Having resolved controversial issues after submitting documents, the car will be returned from the impound lot to the owner, without imposing penalties on him. This doesn't happen often, but it does happen. And you need to know how to act correctly in such a situation.

How to decipher the engine number?
The engine number is deciphered in accordance with the international standard ISO 3779. When answering the question of how many digits are in a car’s engine number, let’s pay attention to what characters make it up. These are 17 characters of numbers and letters of the Latin alphabet. Due to the similarity of the symbols I, O, Q to the numbers 1 and 0, they are not used in number combinations.
The meaning of each symbol is a characteristic of the car. With its help it is determined:
- Manufacturing plant
- Country of Origin
- Date of issue
- Technical specifications and other data.
The number contains a control number indicating its originality.
It consists of 3 parts:
- WMI (1-3 characters indicating the manufacturer's index)
- VDS (4-9 characters describe the model)
- VIS (10-17 characters of the different part).
Vehicle identification numbers
Location of identification numbers in the engine compartment:
1 — vehicle identification number; 2 - summary plate with vehicle nameplate data; 3 — engine number (at the end of the cylinder block under the thermostat housing)
According to existing legislation, each vehicle has an identification number (VIN code).
This number is recorded in
the vehicle passport (PTS).
The identification number and other passport data of the vehicle are indicated in the summary plate.
Summary plate:
1 — number for spare parts (corresponds to the serial number of the car that came off the assembly line); 2 — vehicle type approval number; 3 — identification number (XTA — manufacturer code; 211240 — car model; 6 — year of manufacture; last seven digits — body number); 4 — engine model; 5 — load on the front axle; 6 — load on the rear axle; 7 — codes of vehicle version and configuration; 8 - total permissible weight of the vehicle; 9 - total permissible weight of the vehicle with trailer.
Note. The model year of manufacture can be indicated by a number or a letter of the Latin alphabet (see Table 1.1).
