K4M - 16-valve (16V) injection engine with a volume of 1.6 liters, first released in 1999. It is a logical continuation of the K7M engine line, and differs from the latter in its updated cylinder head: the latter has separate camshafts for the intake and exhaust valves. In addition, hydraulic compensators were added to the design of the gas distribution mechanism, which made the engine, in comparison with its predecessors, less noisy.
Main characteristics of the K4M engine:
The declared resource for the K4M engine is up to 500 thousand km.

You should use only rust removers, such as Tsinkar, or analogues; by the way, Logan’s body is galvanized. The greater the mileage of the engine, the worse it will be visible and the more difficult it is to make out the numbers, the engine number on a Logan Renault, which the Traffic Police does not now require checking the number of this element when registering.
If possible, do this on several paper media so that you can always find the information you are interested in.
This will help in choosing and purchasing the right part. By the VIN code you can find out the model of the engine that is installed on the car. Passport data is located on a special identification plate.
The location of its fixation is located on the right pillar of the front passenger door.
Let's give an example
On Renault Sandero, the VIN number specification is standard and is not very difficult to decipher on your own. In other words, its structure fully corresponds to that described above. True, with some reservations.
The first block, as expected, is the international identifier of the country of origin. As you might expect, for Renault Sandero this is France, which is indicated by a combination of VFX symbols, where X is a single digit. However, it is worth noting that cars produced in Russia have a Turkish VIN code X7L.
Renault Logan 2 – Engine number K4M, K7M, H4M
However, the main problem lies under the hood. Owners of previous Logans know how easily and quickly engine numbers rot on their engines. In 3-4 years, the symbols could not only become covered with a coating of corrosion, but disappear forever without a trace, so that neither WD-40 nor zinc lotions could help.
The second generation did not lose this drawback, but the rate of destruction clearly decreased sharply. It is especially dangerous to clean the markings with sandpaper. Let me remind you that the law contains an article for the deliberate destruction of forensic markings.
Fortunately, the new amendments allow you to re-register a car with a rotten license plate. Not without unnecessary movements, of course, but it’s possible.
Check the car before purchasing with an Autotorque.ru specialist. On the power plants K4M (1.6, 103 hp) and K7M (1.6, 82 hp) Logan 2, the engine number is located in almost the same place: in the front of the unit, under manifold, closer to the gearbox. In the case of a 16-valve unit, it is extremely difficult to establish visual contact with the platform, even with an inspection mirror. In order to clean the symbols from rust, you will have to completely dismantle part of the air duct, otherwise a hand with a rag will not fit through.
Engine number K7M (1.6, 82 hp)
Engine number K4M (1.6, 103 hp) The only engine with which there will definitely not be problems with corrosion and dirt is the Nissan H4M unit (113 hp). The engine number on it is printed vertically on an inclined platform in the front of the engine close to the gearbox:

To find the required part for Renault Logan and Sandero cars, in addition to the VIN code, you need other vehicle passport data. We recommend recording this data on paper or on another medium, for example, on a phone. If you have your passport data, car dealers will be able to quickly and accurately select the necessary part for your car.
The identification data is indicated on the identification plate, which is located on the right pillar of the front passenger door.
The identification number (or VIN code) is duplicated on the engine compartment panel.
Designations on the top sticker
It is on this sticker that you will find the data necessary for a more accurate and faster search for a part on Reanult. Therefore, we recommend that you provide this information when visiting car dealerships.

Passport details of Renault Duster
But before a major overhaul, the engine lasts for thousands of kilometers, and the only thing that can save you from buying a new aluminum cylinder block is a liner from craftsmen. Maintenance seems to be simpler: But the valve clearances are not controlled by hydraulic compensators, like in the K4M - the mechanism, which begins to click every 80-thousand kilometers, has to select pushers of a new thickness.
The slightly greater power of the H4M is compensated by its lower resistance to overheating.
Like its French colleagues, this unit does not always start up enthusiastically in cold weather; it likes to whistle with the alternator belt drive. In addition, the sound picture is often enriched by the growl of an exhaust system with a destroyed ring-gasket 35 euros of the exhaust pipe, and nervous tremors after thousands of kilometers have to be calmed by replacing the torn cushion of the right euro support.
And the strong modification has a turbocharger with variable geometry. The Spanish-made Nissan one and a half liter diesel engine K9K, which debuted back in the year, among others, makes the modest Duster similar to cars... Mercedes!
How to find Renault Scenic 1.5DCi engine number
And it is not only remarkable for this. Finding it is not a problem, but new drivers still have difficulty with it.
Why do you need a VIN code? Using the VIN code, the car owner can find out whether his Renault Duster has been stolen, or if there are no restrictions on his car; also, using the VIN code, the car can be registered with the traffic police.
For auto parts stores and car service centers, the vin number helps to select spare parts and accessories based on the vin code; car services use this code to determine the equipment and production date of the car. It is important to remember and know that VIN codes never use the number 0, as well as the Latin letters - I, O, Q.
Also know that each number has a specific meaning.
Where is the vin in a Renault Duster on the body? On a Renault Duster car, the vin code is located in three places, just like on other cars. The VIN number can be both main and backup, let's try to find all the places where you need to look for the VIN code on a Renault Duster: Raise the hood and pay attention to the shock absorber glass on the right side; on the first or second edge you can see a seventeen-digit number.
It will contain both letters of the Latin alphabet and numbers.
How to find out the engine number?
Engine number nearby
Because the numbers and letters on the power unit do not necessarily tell you what exactly is encrypted there. For this purpose you need to use a hint.
The first line contains an alphanumeric index consisting of 7 characters. The first three characters indicate the type of engine, while the others indicate the number of valves, volume and injection system.
Under this line there is a seven-digit index, which will be the specific number of this specific instance of the motor. It must be used for recording in warranty documents.
When cleaning the engine number, do not use iron brushes.
Be careful. Do not use iron brushes when “cleaning” the engine number. You should use only rust removers, such as Tsinkar, or analogues when the Logan body is galvanized.
The more than just the mileage of the engine, the more terrible it will be seen and the more difficult it is to make out the numbers; it’s great that the Traffic Police does not currently ask to check the number of this element when registering.

Subject: Engine serial number. Where to look?
Dear forum users! Good afternoon. I recently purchased a 2008 Logan MSV. 1.6 8v It's time to change some things in the chassis and change the timing belt. Please tell me where to look for the “Engine Serial Number” or how to determine the exact production date? And Dialogys is still trying to establish these numbers for me. But I don’t know where to get it. The owner's manual shows the location of the engine number plate. I looked and looked and couldn’t find it. Thank you.

or how to determine the exact production date
The owner's manual shows the location of the engine number plate. I looked and looked and couldn’t find it. Thank you.
but you won’t see it, you need a mirror. In MREO, they look at it with a special mirror on a holder, as if from below. The engine number is not needed for spare parts, only the VIN number.

Re: Engine serial number. Where to look?
Thank you very much for the answer!
The engine number is not needed for spare parts, only the VIN number.
Almost every engine spare part asks for the engine number. Or asks to set the production date of the car accurate to the nearest month. You enter the VIN into the program and press search and it says that no matches were found. Just click done - no changes. In general, I understand that only officials can issue VINs.
1. How can I find out the exact date of production along with the month using the VIN? The Internet describes how to find out only the year. (Didn't find any more) What about the month? 2. Is the engine number only on the engine? That's all? Maybe there are other places to look?
Anyway, my VIN: UU1KSDAB540444391

Re: Engine serial number. Where to look?
I found this:
As you know, Renault does not encode data such as the year of manufacture in the VIN code of its vehicles. Often, to determine a specific configuration and approximate production time, you need to have data from an oval plate and a special program. However, the VIN number can tell you a few things.
The VIN code of Renault cars is located under the windshield, on the left side, or on the front right pillar and consists of 17 number positions.
From 1st to 3rd position of the VIN number - International Manufacturer Code (WMI):
VF1 RENAULT France VF2 RENAULT France VF6 RENAULT France, trucks VF8 RENAULT France VNE RENAULT France VS5 RENAULT Spain VSY RENAULT Spain VF1 RENAULT Turkey GA1 RENAULT Madagascar VMK RENAULT Sport VFA RENAULT – Alpina
It should be noted that Russian-assembled Renault cars, in particular the products of the Avtoframos company, have a different international code:
X7L RENAULT Russia
4th position of the number – body type:
C (old version) or 3 (new) - hatchback, 3 doors B or 5 - hatchback, 5 doors S or 6 - combi, 5 doors K or A - station wagon, 3 doors E or 7 - convertible, 2 doors / flatbed truck D or 8 – coupe, 2 doors / convertible J or N – station wagon, 5 doors / minivan U or H – pickup truck M or 2 – sedan, 2 doors L or 4 – sedan, 4 doors G – minivan / combi, 3 doors F – van T – front-wheel drive Trafic P – rear-wheel drive Trafic V – all-wheel drive Trafic R – front-wheel drive Master Q – rear-wheel drive Master
Following the body type, under the 5th position of the number, is the model range:
0 – Twingo 1 – R4 2 – R25 3 – R4 4 – R21 / Express 5 – Clio 1 / Laguna / R19 / Safrane A – Megane 1 B – Clio 2 C – Kangoo D – Master E – Espace 3 / Avantime G – Laguna 2 H – Master Propulsion J – Vel Satis K – Espace 4 L – Trafic M – Megane 2 P – Modus S – Logan
From 6 to 7 positions of the number – engine code (individual for each model range).
The 8th position of the number is the geographical location of the manufacturer.
It is curious that cars produced by Avtoframos have the same code mark as Turkish cars.
A – Portugal B – Batilly C – Creil D – Douai E and V – Spain F – Flin G – Grand Coronne or Yugoslavia H – Haren J – Billancourt K – Dieppe N and P – Mexico City R – Turkey S – Sandouville T – Romorantin U – Maubeuge W – Valladolid X – Heuliez Z – USA
9th position of the number – gearbox type:
1 – automatic, 3-speed. 2 – automatic, 4-speed. 4 – mechanical, 5-speed. 5 – mechanical, 5-speed. 8 – mechanical, 5-speed, 4x4 C – mechanical, 5-speed. D – mechanical, 5-speed.
10th position of the number – unknown
From 11 to 17 position of the number - the production number of the product (serial number).
What does record information mean?
Vehicle identification data
- manufacturer;
- vehicle type approval number;
- vehicle identification number (VIN);
- permissible maximum vehicle weight;
- permissible weight of a vehicle with a trailer equipped with brakes;
- maximum permissible load on the front axle;
- maximum permissible load on the rear axle;
- vehicle technical specifications code;
- body color ( number
); - level code;
- code upholstery;
- vehicle code;
- special equipment code;
- factory number;
- interior color scheme.
- manufacturer's name,
- code of the authority that issued the certificate, as well as the approval number of the specific vehicle.
- On the third line. a long code that will be the vehicle identification number, known as we said, called VIN.
- There may be a certification mark on the bottom left side, and a certification mark on the right side. bulk data. We are talking about the maximum permissible weight of the car,
- similar figure, but with a trailer,
- and permissible front load level
- and the rear axle of the car, respectively.
You can tell by the engine number whether it has been replaced or repaired. Such a request can be submitted through any Renault dealership. Upon request, you can find out whether the engine has been repaired, for example due to wear or bent valves.
At the bottom of the front passenger door pillar there is a manufacturer's plate that contains information about the vehicle. Explanation of the manufacturer's plate designations
: 1 – manufacturing plant; 2 – vehicle type approval number; 3 – vehicle identification number (VIN); 4 – permissible maximum vehicle weight; 5 – permissible maximum weight of a vehicle with a trailer equipped with brakes; 6 – maximum permissible load on the front axle, kg; 7 – maximum permissible load on the rear axle, kg; 8 – code of technical characteristics of the car; 9 – body color code (paint number); 10 – equipment level code; 11 – vehicle type code; 12 – code of upholstery; 13 – special configuration code; 14 – serial number; 15 – interior color code
The vehicle identification number (VIN) is located in the engine compartment - stamped on the shelf of the air intake box
An example of decoding the identification number Х7LLSRBYHBH000000
: Х7L – according to international standards, the manufacturer’s code is indicated; L – body type (L – sedan; B – hatchback); SR – car model; B – presence of an airbag (A – driver’s airbag; B – driver and passenger airbag; 4 – without airbag); YH – engine model (HH – 1.6 (8V) engine; YH – 1.6 (16V) engine; GH – 1.4 engine); B – model year of the car (B – 2011; A – 2010); H000000 – body serial number
The engine model and number are marked on the tide on the front wall of the cylinder block, next to the oil pressure alarm sensor.
Location of engine number 1.4-1.6 (8V)
For clarity, the location of engine number 1.4-1.6 (8V) is shown with the exhaust manifold heat shield removed
Location of engine number 1.6 (16V) (for clarity, shown on a dismantled power unit)
Decoding the VIN code of Renault cars
To find out the VIN code of a Renault car, you first need to find it .
Once the code is found, it's time to start deciphering it.
Let's take, for example, the VIN code of a Renault Laguna 2 car from our disassembly.
The 17-digit VIN code of our Renault Laguna 2 is: VF1KG0G0626951928. Let's decipher it by position.
Positions 1-3 - International Manufacturer Code (WMI)
As you can see, Russian-assembled Renault cars have their own international code: X7L RENAULT.
In our example, positions 1-2 of the Renault Laguna VIN code: VF1 KG0G0626951928. This means the car was made in France.
Position 4 - body type
- 0 - “small” van with side glazing (Renault Dokker)
- 3 - “big” van (Renault Traffic)
- 4 — sedan, 4 doors (Renault Logan)
- 5 - hatchback, 5 doors (Renault Sandero)
- 7 - station wagon, 5 doors, 7 seats (Renault Logan MCV)
- 8 - “small” van with blank sides (Renault Dokker Van)
- A - station wagon, 3 doors
- B — hatchback, 5 doors
- C — hatchback, 3 doors
- D – coupe / convertible
- E - convertible
- F – van
- G - station wagon, 3 doors
- H - SUV/pickup
- J - minivan / station wagon
- K - station wagon, 3 doors
- L — sedan, 4 doors
- M - sedan, 2 doors
- N - station wagon / minivan, 5 doors
- P – Renault Trafic with rear wheel drive
- Q – Renault Master with rear wheel drive
- R – Renault Master with front-wheel drive
- S - station wagon, 5 doors
- T – Renault Trafic with front-wheel drive
- U - pickup
- V – Renault Trafic with all-wheel drive
In our example, position 4 of the Renault Laguna VIN code: VF1 K G0G0626951928. This means that the body of this Laguna is a station wagon.
Position 5 - Renault model range
- 0 – Twingo
- 1 – R4
- 2 – R25
- 3 – R4
- 4 – R21/Express
- 5 – Clio 1 / Laguna / R19 / Safrane
- A – Megane 1
- B – Clio 2
- C – Kangoo
- D – Master
- E – Espace 3 / Avantime
- G – Laguna 2
- H – Master Propulsion
- J – Vel Satis
- K – Espace 4
- L - Trafic
- M - Megane 2
- P – Modus
- S – Logan
- Y - Koleos
In our example, position 5 of the Renault Laguna VIN code: VF1K G 0G0626951928. This means that the car belongs to the second generation - Laguna 2.
Positions 6-7 – engine code
This engine code is individual for each model range.
In our example, 0G VIN code .
This means that all Renault Laguna 2 (second generation) cars were equipped with engines with internal code 0G, regardless of the type, design and technical parameters of the internal combustion engine.
Position 8 - location of the manufacturer
- A – Portugal
- B – Batilly, France
- S – Creil, France
- D – Douai, France
- E and V – Spain
- F – Flin, France
- G – Grand Coronne, France, or Yugoslavia
- H – Haren, Belgium
- J – Billancourt, France,
- K – Dieppe, France
- N and P – Mexico City, Mexico
- R – Bursa, Türkiye or Russia
- S – Sandouville, France
- T – Romorantin, France
- U – Maubeuge, France
- W – Valladolid, France
- X – Heuliez, France – mainly produces Renault buses
- Z – USA
It is noteworthy that Renault cars produced in Russia have the same code as cars produced in Turkey.
In our example, position 8 of the Renault Laguna VIN code: VF1KG0 G 0626951928 This means that this Laguna was released from the plant in Grand Coron, France.
Position 9 – gearbox type:
- C – 5-speed manual
- D – 5-speed manual
- 1 – 3-speed automatic
- 2 – 4-speed automatic
- 4 – 5-speed manual
- 5 – 5-speed manual
- 6 – 6-speed manual
- 8 – 5-speed manual, all-wheel drive (4x4)
In our example, position 9 of the Renault Laguna VIN code: VF1KG0G0 6 26951928. This means that this Laguna is equipped with a 6-speed manual transmission.
Position 10 – check character
In our example, this symbol is VF1KG0G0626951928.
This number is used for internal needs of the enterprise. He does not tell the car owner anything.
Positions 11-17 – serial number
In our example, Renault Laguna has production (serial) number VF1KG0G0626951928.
Total
After spending just a couple of minutes parsing the VIN code of the Renault Laguna from our example, we found out:
- country and city of production (Grand Coron, France)
- body type (station wagon)
- generation (second generation)
- vehicle gearbox type (6-speed manual).
