The engine code can usually be found on the engine cover or on a sticker under the hood. If you can't find it there, try checking the vehicle identification number (VIN) on your registration or insurance documents.

You can also try contacting your local BMW dealership or a mechanic who specializes in BMWs for assistance. They should be able to help you locate the engine code.
