Can anyone give me specific directions as to where to find the engine number? It's needed for a blue slip by the mechanics tomorrow morning. Needed for the 1st Feb.
Many Thanks in advance!

Need urgent help finding the engine number on Renault Koleos Diesel 2L Turbo 2009 for Blue Slip
- Thread starter Francophilia
- Start date
The model is in the subject line - It's a Renault Koleos Diesel 2L Turbo 2009
Bottom left windscreen where pretty much all cars have it and did for a while.
Thanks schlitzaugen. I saw that, but the mechanic insists that it must be read on the engine block itself for them to green tick a blue slip. The annoying part of this situation is that they say they will bill me for however long it takes to find it!
I’m sorry! That’s Embarrassing that I missed it when it was the title.
I'd suggest you look for a better workshop, unless this have radically changed the Blue Slip Authorised Inspection Stations have either books or online database with pics that show where VIN and engine numbers are located and what they should look like so as to identify rebirthed vehicles.
That is the VIN not engine number.
Perhaps an email to Renault Australia ? (Or as others have said, try a different mechanic - ideally one familiar with Renaults).
Or ... try here maybe?
Hopefully this is helful
or this
For a blue slip it isn't the VIN that's needed. The inspector must sight and copy the engine number stamped by law on the block . It is there somewhere. The car couldn't have been sold new without it.
PSA, for what it's worth, usually stamps the front passenger side, near the bottom, on a flat part of the casting..
