Car owners also need to know the legal subtleties. Sometimes the preparation of technical documents causes many difficulties. Don't know where the engine number is on the grant. It is difficult for a person without experience to find it the first time. You can spend a lot of time on this procedure if you do not have certain knowledge in this area. In this article we will figure out what the engine number should look like, where it is located and what it is needed for.
First you need to decide why you need a motor code? If you just need to find out information about it, then you can use the documents for the car and find out the code from there. It is also included in the vehicle registration certificate. Sometimes, the number must be found on the grant engine itself. For example, when submitting an application to register a car with the traffic police or when buying and selling a car, when the buyer wants to see if the engine in the car is original.
Old engines
VAZ 11183 (VAZ 21114)
Lada Kalina cars began to be equipped with VAZ 11183 (or VAZ 21114) power units in 2004, and then it was inherited by the Grant “standard”. This is a rather simple and primitive four-cylinder engine with 8 valves, producing 82 hp. and volume 1.6 l.
It cannot boast of solid power characteristics, but it does not cause any special problems when driving, and it is also very easy to maintain. It is distinguished by its environmental friendliness and reliability, while it also has good elasticity characteristics. In addition, this motor is known as one of the most torquey, especially at the bottom.
An important additional plus is a reliable timing system that prevents collisions between pistons and valves when the timing belt breaks.
But during operation of the motor, some disadvantages may be noted, in particular:
- Possible failure to turn the crankshaft with the starter;
- Strong noise when the starter is operating;
- Even after cranking the crankshaft, the engine may not start;
- There is instability when it is idling;
- The engine does not function at full capacity, which causes a loss of continuity. As a result, there are jerks when the car moves;
- The appearance of shots and claps;
- Increased fuel and oil consumption rates, insufficient oil pressure;
- The appearance of specific high-pitched knocking sounds when the load on the engine increases;
- Overheating of the engine or, conversely, the inability to warm it up to the required temperature for a long time;
- Constant operation of the electric fan, including on a cold engine;
- Reduced coolant level;
- The appearance of extraneous noise or strong vibration of the motor;
- While the engine is running, a signal indicating a malfunction of the power unit control system comes on.
Engine on Grant: features
So, the Grant 21116 1.6-liter 8-valve gasoline engine is a modernized 1.6-liter VAZ 2114 engine. The idea to modernize the VAZ 2114 engine arose in connection with the release of the Grant car and the transition of the entire model range to Euro-4.
Initially, ICE 21116 was installed on the Lada Priora and then on the Lada Granta and Lada Kalina cars. List of main technical characteristics:
- injection power system;
- in-line 4-cylinder engine with a power of 87 hp;
- engine capacity 1596 cm3;
- the presence of two valves per cylinder;
- the maximum torque is 140 Nm;
- the presence of an intake manifold with extended channels and a flange for an electronic damper (increased torque);
- new H-module.
The 87 hp Grant engine, especially in comparison with its predecessor VAZ 21114, has a lightweight connecting rod and piston group. This feature of the 21116 engine has its advantages and disadvantages.
By lightening the parts and elements of the internal combustion engine, the service life of the valve-piston group decreases, but at the same time the dynamics and other indicators improve. For example, an increase in power to 87 hp, which is 6 hp. more than that of ICE 21114.
Main characteristics of the Lada Grand car with a VAZ 21116 engine installed on it:
- The maximum speed of the car is 167 km/h;
- Fuel consumption 8.5 l. per 100 km (when driving in the urban cycle);
- Fuel consumption 5.7 l. per 100 km (when driving on the highway);
Let's move on. If we consider the Granta 8-valve engine and its design, the Granta 8-valve engine has several design features that distinguish it from other modifications.
Firstly, the plate honing method is used to finalize the surfaces of the cylinders. Secondly, the presence of oil nozzles allows for more intensive lubrication and cooling of the pistons.
The dimensions of the internal combustion engine parts have also been reduced: the height of the cylinder block is about 197.1 mm; the crank radius is about 37.8 mm; piston ring height 1.2/1.5/2 mm, etc.
Another thing worth noting is the electromechanical throttle module installed at the receiver input. This design solution allows the ECU to fully control both the fuel supply and the air supply to the cylinders.
Let us add that the main design feature of the Grant 21116 internal combustion engine was the lightweight ShPG connecting rod and piston group. In the previous model, exhaust gas flows collided and created back pressure.
For this reason, in the case of the VAZ 21116, the designers decided to lengthen the collector pipes by changing the shape of the cylindrical block and the inlet pattern. As a result, such actions helped reduce losses and resistance.
Where is the body number?
The body number is located under the hood. Duplicated in two places.
- The number is stamped on the body next to the “glass” on the right support of the car.

Is there a chassis number in the trunk?
Since you have already climbed into the trunk, we recommend installing a net in it. Read more about how to choose a net for the trunk here.
When I registered it, I looked for the body number in the usual place for AvtoVAZ. This place is the trunk niche for the spare tire; this is where the number was on all my previous Lada models (VAZ-2109, VAZ-2114, VAZ-2115, LADA PRIORA).
In a Lada Granta car there is no body number in the trunk niche!
Is there a body number in the cabin?
Before going and registering the car, I read on the Internet that there is a duplicate number in the car under the back seat in the middle. It was also written that you need to lower the backrest, pull the upholstery out of the seal, or find a slot in the upholstery under which the number will be located.
This information is not correct, and on a Lada Granta car as standard, there is no body number in these places!

How to find out the body number by VIN code
VINformer only works with 17-digit VINs that comply with the ISO 3779-1983 standard. Enter the VIN in the form on the page and click the Check car button.
The decryption algorithm assumes the possibility of multi-stage decryption (sometimes it may be necessary to select one of several car brands or engine modifications, indicate the sales market, etc.
), but most requests will not require clarification of information, because all parameters are determined automatically.
Please do not try to "punch" body numbers of right-hand drive vehicles produced for the Japanese domestic market, engine numbers, etc.
Any car you see on the street is identified by a unique vehicle identification number (VIN). This number is also quite often called simply the body number.
There are no two cars in the world with the same VIN number. For this reason, the chassis number is sometimes compared to DNA or fingerprints, as it allows the vehicle's identity to be easily and accurately determined.
How to find out the engine number by VIN code
Previously, in our materials, we talked about how to find out the country and year of manufacture of a car using the VIN code. For this purpose, a list of symbol decodings was provided, and advice was given on how to correctly read the body number. At the same time, many car enthusiasts are interested in whether it is possible to find out the engine number by VIN code and how to do it. Let's take a closer look.
The list of technical parameters of the vehicle is encrypted in the second section of the VIN code. In the international standard it is referred to as VDS - Vehicle Description Section. In simple words - a descriptive section. This part of the number consists of six characters, going from the 4th to the 9th position. Not every manufacturer fills in all the characters; in some cases, missing characters are marked with zeros.
VDS provides information about the model and technical modification of the car. As a rule, the 4th digit of the VIN code indicates the body type, the 5th digit the engine type, and the 6th digit the model. Next comes a description of the series, type of chassis, cabin, type of brake system, etc. Car manufacturers from the United States are required to indicate the loaded weight of the car and data on the configuration of the safety systems installed on this particular car.
The last, 9th character of the section is a control character, with its help you can check the authenticity of the body number. It is marked in the form of a number from 0 to 9 or the Latin letter X. This symbol is mandatory for manufacturers from China and North America; for European concerns it is advisory in nature. In this case, it must be present on cars such as Volvo, BMW, Toyota, Saab, Lexus and Mercedes-Benz.
It all depends on the brand
Specifically regarding how you can find out the engine model by VIN code - here each manufacturer offers different options. Thus, for Audi and BMW cars, engine size and other parameters are determined by information from the model range (4–8 ordinal symbols). The same applies to Ford cars.
For Volkswagen cars, information must be viewed by model and year of manufacture (10th digit of the VIN code).
On Mitsubishi cars, you can find out the engine type by VIN through the power unit code. It is marked with the 8th character in order.
In Skoda cars, these units are designated by the 5th ordinal symbol (in the form of a letter).
Toyota's engine power, like all other parameters of the power unit, breaks through the 6th position, which describes the engine series.
In Opel, engine information by VIN is indicated in 4–9 characters.
We also add that car manufacturers reserve the right to arbitrary order of designations in the VDS section. But as a standard, the brand, engine and other parameters are indicated exactly as described above.
Checking the engine by number
Identifying an engine by VIN code and checking the engine in general often requires the presence of the power unit number. This number is indicated in the STS or vehicle passport. If the documents are not available, look for a plate with a number on the motor itself. It can be located:
- on or near the cylinder block;
- under the oil dipstick;
- at the junction of the engine and gearbox;
- on the intake manifold;
- on the belt cover;
- on the air intake.
If you still haven’t found the number in all these areas, go to a service center or to the expert department of the MREO. Actually, you should contact the MREO in any case, since determining the type of engine and its legality only using the VIN code is not entirely correct. It is better to send the car for additional examination, especially if the body number does not appear correctly. Representatives of the MREO, in particular, will be able to tell you whether the numbers have been exceeded. Sometimes the check can be complicated by the fact that the engine number was changed without registering this fact with the traffic police. Check this point with the seller, if there is such a possibility.
Alternatively, you can look for information about the motor somewhere on specialized forums. The Internet - it knows everything! But it’s better to turn to professionals. To check the engine, in addition to its number, service representatives will need the following data:
- number of cylinders and type of intake system;
- number of heads and type of cylinder arrangement;
- transmission type;
- number of valves, spark plugs, injectors and other elements.
In this case, it will be possible to conduct a detailed check and compare the information received with that obtained using the VIN code. Only this approach, consisting of several stages, will give you a guarantee that the engine, like the car itself, has a clean history.

How to find out the car's equipment
The Autocode service will help you check the equipment of your car for free. The check can be carried out using the VIN code or state registration number. number. Information about the car (body number, state number, VIN) is entered into a field on the website page, after clicking the “Check car” button, data about the car options appears on the screen.
It will take no more than one minute to check the car’s configuration by VIN or state number. By paying for the full report (349 rubles), within 5 minutes you will receive a detailed history of the vehicle’s operation: data on mileage, technical. inspections, compulsory motor liability insurance, number of owners, traffic police restrictions and much more.
The procedure will allow us to draw the following conclusions:
- Compare information about the body number, vehicle documentation provided by the owner of the vehicle with factory information;
- Protect yourself from possible confiscation of the car by the traffic police, if the car is stolen or fines are imposed on it.
Checking by wine or state number will help protect yourself from a bad deal.
Where can I find the car's VIN code?
First of all, you should know that the identification number must be reflected in the documents for the vehicle:
- Registration certificate.
- Technical certificate.
This is the easiest way. But if you decide to buy a used car, and the seller, for some reason, does not want to tell you the VIN, you can look at it yourself when inspecting the vehicle.
It is also worth immediately indicating that hiding the VIN code may indicate the presence of hidden problems (cars with restrictions, in collateral, or even with a criminal history).
Therefore, be vigilant, and below we will tell you how you can check the complete history of a vehicle without the participation of its real owner.
Why do you need an engine number?
According to the rules for the development and production of vehicles, the engine must have its own identification number. The engine number on the Lada Granta, as on other cars, is necessary to obtain the following information:
- engine model and its main characteristics;
- manufacturer;
- checking and comparing the data specified in the passport (performed when registering a vehicle, replacing a passport, installing additional equipment, replacing an engine);
- checking the car for the possibility of being stolen (documents may be invalid).
In modern cars, not all units have an identification number. This is due to the fact that quite often the engine is changed to a newer one or with different power ratings. To facilitate the process of replacing the motor from the paperwork side, in many countries the engine markings are not checked and are not indicated in the documents.
Exceptions
Constantly faced with unreadable engine numbers, owners of Lada Granta and other cars find themselves in an unpleasant situation when registering their car. You have to scrub off rust and dirt from the surface of the cylinder block. This takes a long time and creates certain problems.
Recently, Russia adopted a law on changes to the rules when registering a vehicle. Now the documents for the car do not contain the engine number plate and, accordingly, it is not compared with the markings on the unit itself. But in some cases you will still have to find engraving on the part, for example, when installing non-standard equipment (switching to gas) or modifying the engine (increasing power).
On some foreign cars there is no engine code at all. Many vehicle manufacturers have come to this conclusion due to the fact that the engine is increasingly being replaced with a contract one in the event of a serious breakdown. To avoid problems with registering such a car with a donor unit, they stopped indicating this number in the documents and checking it with the engraving on the engine body.

Lada Granta - which engine is better?
Today I will talk about the engines that are installed on the Lada Granta. Today, only four engines are installed on this car. I will try to briefly talk about the characteristics of each engine, but I will not consider the Granta Sport engine, it is too specific and quite rare.
I’ll start with the most basic one, which is installed on the “Standard” package, this is engine 21186. In fact, this is the same engine that was previously installed on VAZ 21114 cars. The only thing that has changed is that the block has become 2.3 mm higher and the shape of the crankshaft has changed shaft The seats remained the same, that is, 7.12, but the shafts themselves were changed. And in order not to change the compression ratio, the cylinder head was changed. In terms of other characteristics, this is still the same engine from the 14th model. In principle, it has established itself as a reliable unit produced by the Volzhsky plant. One of the disadvantages is the adjustment of the valves (due to the lack of hydraulic compensators), as in any other eight-valve engine from VAZ. Very hard work of the connecting rod and piston group, which produces strong vibration on the body and a characteristic diesel sound. The advantage is the compression ratio of 9.6, which theoretically allows the use of AI-92 gasoline without detonation explosions. Great maintainability - in any garage you can replace almost all units. Well, actually – cheap service.
The next engine is 21116, which was installed on the “Norma” package. The main change is a lighter piston; final honing of the cylinder walls has been applied, which extends the life of the engine and makes it easier to pick up. By changing the piston group, the engine gained 8 N/m. The cylinder head gasket has been changed; now it is metal, two-layer, more durable, similar to that of the Priora. The compression ratio has been increased to 10.5, which no longer allows the use of AI-92 gasoline. Anyone who uses AI-92, know that this cannot be done (more on that later). The engine also received an automatic timing belt tensioner and a toothed belt manufactured with a service life of up to 200 thousand km. and an imported pump with a service life of up to 70 thousand km. In addition, for the first time, graphite linings were used on the cylinder walls of this engine, which increases heat transfer and, accordingly, rapid cooling of the pistons.
The advantages of this unit: low noise, decreased fuel consumption due to lighter pistons, increased power and torque. One of the disadvantages is that if the timing belt breaks, the valve bends. There are no hydraulic compensators, which means adjusting the valves.
The next engine is 21127, which is created on the basis of the 16-valve VAZ-21126 engine, but has significant differences, namely: power increased to 106 l/s, torque to 148 N/m, instead of the mass air flow sensor, DBP and DTV were installed, which eliminated the problem floating speed at idle.
This engine also uses lightweight pistons, a reinforced cylinder block gasket and the compression ratio is increased to 11 units, which means the use of AI-98 gasoline. In addition, this unit is equipped with a hydraulic compensator system, which reduces vibration and eliminates the need for valve adjustment.
This engine combines all the advantages of an 8-valve engine (traction from the bottom) and a 16-valve engine (it picks up well at the top). This is one of the most successful solutions of the Volzhsky plant, a more or less modern engine.
All of the above engines have a knock sensor, which allows you to automatically adjust the ignition timing. But as a negative result: you lose engine power, its efficiency, and reduce its service life. Those. imaginary savings on gasoline can lead to disastrous consequences...
That's all. Let's like and subscribe! )))
What is a car's VIN code and what does it mean?
Each vehicle is assigned a unique identification number (VIN). It is always seventeen digits long and consists of alphabetic and digital characters. Using this unique code you can find out a lot of useful information about the car: production date, place of assembly, brand, manufacturer.
And this is not all the information. For example, by using the VIN code, you can find out whether the car was involved in an accident, whether it caught fire or was not flooded. The ability to correctly decipher the identification number will give you a great advantage when purchasing a car second-hand.
You can prevent yourself from buying a dubious car.
There is no single international standard that defines how the VIN is constructed. Each manufacturer sets the rules for its formation himself. The system is built on such a principle that in no case should the number be repeated - the combination of characters must be unique over the past 30 years.
Each car is assigned only one VIN, and it is the only one and cannot be found on another car. Typically, the VIN code is assigned to a vehicle by the final manufacturer, the one who directly puts the car into operation. The VIN number must be checked for each vehicle.
The entire VIN number is divided into sections. Acceptable characters that can be used in the number are a combination of Arabic numerals from 0 to 9 and letters of the Latin alphabet. The exceptions are the letters I, O, Q.
They are not used to eliminate the possibility of number falsification, because such letters can easily be replaced with others.
It is possible to use separator characters to highlight individual subgroups of a number, to indicate the beginning of the code or its end.
Lada Granta engines 8 valves
This power unit was installed only until December 2014, until it gave way to the 11186 internal combustion engine. This is an injection 8-valve engine with a single camshaft, a timing belt drive and without hydraulic compensators, so the thermal valve clearances here will have to be adjusted yourself. Thanks to special holes in the pistons, if the valve belt breaks, it will never bend.
There are plenty of problems with this engine; first of all, owners are bothered by all sorts of noises, knocks, and vibrations. Unreliable electrics, as well as a capricious thermostat, can throw you many unpleasant surprises. Due to poor fuel, valve burnout sometimes occurs here.

This unit is an improved version of the previous one. There is already a lightweight piston with anti-friction inserts, a timing belt from Gates with a service life of 180 thousand km, an electronic throttle valve, a developed cooling jacket and many other improvements, thanks to which it was possible to fit this rather old engine into the strict EURO 4 econorms. Due to the new pistons without holes in the bottom, if the valve belt breaks, it almost always bends. Update: in mid-2021, the manufacturer equipped the unit with plugless pistons.
The list of typical malfunctions of this power unit is quite long. Owners of cars with such an engine regularly encounter burnout of valves due to bad gasoline, overheating, oil leaks, failures of various sensors, and also glitches of the E-gas system.

Where is the engine identification number on the Grant?
When it becomes necessary to check the license plate of a power unit, the driver faces a difficult task. To understand where the engine number is on a Grant, you need to at least have an idea of the appearance of automotive mechanisms.
Under the hood of the Lada Granta there is not only an engine, but also other important units and devices. The engine itself is located in the middle of the engine compartment, but you can see the designation plate only after performing several actions:
- Open the hood of the Lada Granta, first prepare a flashlight, rags and a set of screwdrivers.
- Remove the air filter.
- After removing it, access to the end of the cylinder block will open. It is engraved with numbers. As a rule, this surface is covered with dirt, machine oil and other contaminants. You need to clean the surface with a cloth and soapy water.
- If exposed to moisture, the applied markings could become rusty and difficult to read. To remove rust, use a special product such as WD-40.
- After all cleaning procedures, the number should become visible. If it is inconvenient to read, you can use a mirror to reflect it at a certain angle.

Engine number on 16 valve
The Lada Granta is available with two types of engines: 8 and 16 valves. The design of the units does not have any major differences. A larger number of valves ensures engine acceleration and better technical characteristics.
On the more powerful Lada Granta, the engine number is also located on the end of the cylinder block on the right side, if you stand in front of the hood. The location of the engine itself in the engine compartment is no different for both versions.
Engine number on 8 mi valve
The very first Grants, produced since 2011, were equipped with 8 valve engines. It is this fact that may explain that the engine designation on early production cars may be in a more deplorable state.
Over 8-9 years of operation, the place on the cylinder block where the marking is applied is often subject to rust and covered with a layer of dirt. To make the engine symbol visible and legible, effort must be made to clean the surface.

Registration — Lada Granta, 1.6 l., 2014 on DRIVE2
I didn’t see much sense in the writing about registration, if not for one BUT.
I thought that I would register without B, as was the case with four, but I was a little mistaken. I, like smart Masha, am registered on the government services website. So I followed the same path, signing up for registration in the morning. I made an appointment at 9:30, believing that an hour from 8:30 would be enough for me to complete the inspection report. I was thinking, well, what is there to look at in a 14-year-old car... That’s my main mistake =) When checking the engine numbers, I was confronted with the fact that they couldn’t distinguish the number (despite the fact that it wasn’t the nasty “Arkasha”, who came across me at four, and a normal guy - he re-examined the Streetking Passat when he was also forced to clean the engine number, he also inspected my girlfriend’s Corsa and then everything was no problem with him). So I drove to the parking lot, thinking about how, where and with what I would rub the license plate. I knew its location, because... the day before, just in case, I looked for this information on Google. There is nothing to rub. I went to the store to buy napkins. In a good way, you need to remove the air vent and it seems like the number will be visible. It is easy to remove the filter housing without tools, but the problem was that the tube from the expansion tank (4) and the terminal from the battery (5) did not want to snap off, and they were attached to the filter housing with a clip-clamp.
2-engine number. junction between box and engine
But I don’t have screwdrivers, like 80% of the visitors that day did. This is understandable, no one has a new car or tools. So I started to rub the number like this, without removing it. I rubbed it for half an hour, lowered my phone 50 times and took pictures of that place, but what I saw there was a rusty area. I have attached the best photos of the process) these are several photos in which I was on the computer at least a little, but I saw the engine number

and two
After half an hour of trying to scrub off the rust, I was lucky and a guy nearby had a set of screwdrivers, which I used to remove the clamps from the air. I was very surprised that the number was barely visible on this site.
I passed the act, but missed the line at the window by an hour. I took a ticket to the general queue at 10-30, and at 13-30 I registered. It’s good that you were smart enough not to sit there all this time.

How to find out which engine is on the grant
Hello, I became the owner of a Lada Grant and in this honor I signed up for your community. I switched from eight.
And I immediately have a question: how can you accurately determine the engine model? I have an eight-valve engine, the passport says 87 hp. like 11186 with lightweight pistons (which bends the valve in the event of a toothed belt break), but the old-style plastic timing belt casing, like on the 11183 engine (which does not bend the valve). As a result, I am in a stupor, and on the block I only found the inscription 1118... and how can I find out what kind of heart is beating under my hood?
Engine
The larger the engine capacity, the more powerful the car, and, as a rule, the larger it is. There is no point in installing a small-capacity engine on a large car, the engine simply cannot cope with its weight, and the opposite is also pointless - installing a large engine in a light car. Therefore, manufacturers are trying to select a motor. to the price of the car. The more expensive and prestigious the model, the larger the engine capacity and the more powerful it is. Budget versions rarely boast a cubic capacity of more than two liters.
Engine displacement is expressed in cubic centimeters or liters. Whichever is more convenient for you.
The engine capacity of the Lada Grant is 1.6 liters.
Lada Granta engine power ranges from 82 to 106 hp.
Despite belonging to the budget price group, the Lada Granta is equipped with several power plants. Each motor has its own characteristics in terms of consumption, maximum speed, power and other parameters, so that each buyer can easily make a choice in full accordance with his own needs. Engine malfunctions and service life indicators are also different. They also need to be taken into account when choosing.
Where is the engine number on the Lada Granta?
Car owners also need to know the legal subtleties. Sometimes the preparation of technical documents causes many difficulties. Don't know where the engine number is on the grant.
It is difficult for a person without experience to find it the first time. You can spend a lot of time on this procedure if you do not have certain knowledge in this area.
In this article we will figure out what the engine number should look like, where it is located and what it is needed for.
First you need to decide why you need a motor code? If you just need to find out information about it, then you can use the documents for the car and find out the code from there.
It is also included in the vehicle registration certificate. Sometimes, the number must be found on the grant engine itself.
For example, when submitting an application to register a car with the traffic police or when buying and selling a car, when the buyer wants to see if the engine in the car is original.

Remove the air filter box, then you can see the engine number (or look through the mirror). But in general, the engine has long been transferred to the category of consumables, and its number is not checked when checking the numbers in the MREO. And in the vehicle registration certificate, there is now no line about the engine number.
The model and engine number on the Lada Granta are stamped on the end of the cylinder block above the clutch housing. You can read the number using a mirror.

Where to look for the Lada Granta engine number: 8 valve
In some vehicles, the unit number is duplicated in the trunk and interior. This does not apply to Lada Granta. In this vehicle it is indicated only in the engine compartment.
Location of the Lada Granta engine number in the engine compartment:
- Vehicle identification number;
- Motor number (located on the corner of the block, above the body part);
- A table indicating the vehicle's passport data.
In order to find the engine number for the Lada Granta, you need to open the hood and carefully inspect the parts. The desired object is located at the end of the cylinder block above the clutch housing. Sometimes some parts may interfere with normal inspection of the surface. In such cases, use a mirror and a flashlight. If you do not have such a device, you can remove the air filter, which will give you an overview of the desired area. When going to the traffic police, it is not recommended to remove spare parts, since they have their own way of inspecting the engine compartment.
VIN code
1. The identification number (VIN) is stamped on the floor under the front passenger seat on the right side. To inspect the room, a valve has been cut out of the carpet. The VIN code is also duplicated on the wall between the engine compartment and the engine.
Depending on the configuration of the Lada XRAY, there may be a glove box under the passenger seat. In this case, to access the number, you must fully extend the movable part of the glove box by pulling the stops outward on both sides.
2. The marking (nameplate) is located on the right pillar, below, near the threshold.
It indicates the model, car number, engine model, weight data, number for spare parts, design options, and configurations. Explanation:
- Manufacturer's name OJSC AVTOVAZ (AVTOVAZ).
- Vehicle type approval number. It is given in full in the vehicle passport.
- Vehicle identification number VIN.
- Technically permissible maximum vehicle weight.
- Technically permissible maximum weight of a road train.
- Technically permissible maximum axle weight on the front axle.
- Technically permissible maximum axle weight on the rear axle.
- Vehicle designation.
- Engine designation.
- Number for spare parts. The number for spare parts corresponds to the serial number of the vehicle leaving the assembly line. When ordering spare parts, you must refer to the information contained on the identification plate.
- Market circulation sign.
Let us recall that in accordance with the Decision of the Customs Union Commission dated June 15, 2011 No. 711, the model year is defined as a conditional year indicated by the manufacturer (usually following the actual year of manufacture of the vehicle).
At JSC AVTOVAZ, the start of the model year is set on July 1 of the calendar year. Thus, from January 1 to June 30, the model year corresponds to the actual year of manufacture of the car, and from July 1 to December 31 corresponds to the one following the actual year of manufacture of the car.
1-3 characters - Manufacturer's identification code
4-5 characters - model code
6th sign - body type
7th sign - engine

- Vehicle identification number;
- Motor number (located on the corner of the block, above the body part);
- A table indicating the vehicle's passport data.
In order to find the engine number for the Lada Granta, you need to open the hood and carefully inspect the parts.

When going to the traffic police, it is not recommended to remove spare parts, since they have their own way of inspecting the engine compartment.
Often, car owners cannot find the code for an 8-valve VAZ engine due to rust or dirt mixed with the engine oil. In such cases, first of all you need to clean the surface to be inspected. To do this, you will need a rust removing solution, a wire brush and a clean rag. After cleaning, it will be easier to view the surface.
What to do if the number is interrupted
If the engine number on the Lada Grant looks like it has been changed, do not rush to conclusions. Perhaps the marking area is covered with rust, and you need to try to scrub it off first. If, after all attempts, the motor code does not correspond to the actual one and mechanical damage is visible, you should contact a specialist.
Forensic examination deals with such issues. It gives a conclusion about whether the number is really interrupted, and whether there is information in the database about the criminal history of this car or engine. If the car was purchased at a dealership, then all claims must be presented in an official form to the owners of the organization. In case of a voluntary resolution of the conflict, the salon administration must return the money.
Things are more complicated if the Lada Granta was bought secondhand from a stranger. You can try to find out from the seller whether he knew about the discrepancy between the numbers on the engine. If you cannot return the car to the previous owner, you need to solve this problem yourself. For example, replace the engine with a contract one with a different number.
What is a VIN code?
The ISO 3779 standard, which describes the format of the vehicle VIN code (which translates as Vehicle Identification Number), was adopted in the USA and Canada in 1977. The adoption of this standard has made it possible to create a simple and reliable way to classify machines and protect them from theft. The combination of numbers and letters of the VIN code is protected from number alteration by using an algorithm for calculating the check number, which is followed by all car manufacturers in the USA and exporters to this country; in Europe, the ISO 3779 standard is not always followed. According to the ISO 3779 standard, the VIN code is SEVENTEEN characters long. The following symbols are allowed to indicate the VIN code: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 ABCDEFGHJKLMNPRSTUVWX YZ The symbols I, O, Q are prohibited due to the similarity to 0 and 1 and to each other.
