Just filling out my IVA paperwork and I'm filling in the engine number. What is this last letter that I've circled in red? it looks like a sigma. Any thoughts?

Also for those of you with a zetec engine, have you put the engine code in as part of the engine no? For example mine starts with ALDA - it's stamped on the block directly before the engine number.

I'm pretty sure mine has something like that, a sigma or similar. I believe it is not part of the engine number, but a control character to stop you adding extra digits. I ommitted it from my IVA forms, etc.

I did include the four alpha characters at the start.

It isnt a sigma engine is?

Mine was/is a Zetec 2.0.

Thanks, I'll do the same and include the code but omit the sigma.

Yes it's a zetec engine, or to be precise a zetec dressed up as a duratec in the form of the St170 engine
