Kindly enlighten me on this issue.

I use Mercedes Benz C220. Yesterday my car documents were checked by a police officer. He complained that the chassis and engine numbers should not be the same on the documents.

He said the engine number is always inside the engine and that chassis number shouldn't have been written on the space meant for the engine number. Even though I have never seen the engine number after extensive search. We argued it before I later pleaded with them and I was allowed to go.

Please I want someone to shed more light on this so that I will know how to defend myself in future occurrence.

Engine and Chassis number are not the same.

The engine number is located at different places depending on the vehicle.

Are u in Lagos, if yes, go to clegg street, meet Mercedes benz parts seller and they would assist u.

They have to get it online. That's how I got the one for my ML350.
