Normally, these codes are three letters, but I have seen some 2008 Volkswagen engine codes with four digit engine codes.

Regardless of whether you have a three or a four digit engine code, to make sure you get the correct Audi or Volkswagen engine you have to know the engine code. There are a few ways to find it. Keep in mind that this is based off of my experience only – if you know another location the engine code can be found, please share it.

  1. In some years of VW and Audi vehicles, the engine code is on a sticker located on the engine’s timing cover.
  2. For many years, the engine code is located on the apron at the front of the engine compartment.
  3. In some years, check a sticker located on either the driver’s door or the frame the door closes into. Normally, this is the sticker that also has the VIN.
