Where is my Engine Number? - 1987 300D 603
Need to know the engine number to order parts that have a "before" and "after" version based on this number.
Do I get this off the engine or is it on a plate under the hood? Can't find this info in the Hayes manual or the MB CD manual. Thanks, Ken300D

If the 603 is like the 602 the number will be on a small flange that is located just in front of the output of the high pressure injection line on the IP for cylinder #1.
You may have to clean the flange to see the numbers - I did. |

If you call Phil at Fastlane to order parts, he can look it up based on your VIN.

AFAIK the engine number on a 603 is on a horizontal surface of the block behind the head.

I found the number on the flat spot just in front of the injection pump. Have to say it looks a lot more like a MB part number than a serial number. I have not had time to look on the block behind the head. Is that place something you read from the top or from the side? That is, which way would the number be facing.
And, I'm giving this the bump in case other opinions are available. ![]() Ken300D

Email or PM your VIN to me. I may be able to look it up.
