      Finding a used engine: what does this mean?

      I'm looking for a used engine for my 2008 Aveo. On one website I saw this in the "fitment" description:
      2008 Chevrolet Aveo - (1.6L, VIN 6, 8th digit, opt LXT)
      I'm lost after 1.6L. What do those last 3 items mean??

      it means if you look at your vin number, the 8th digit from the front will be the number 6. The LXT is the actual engine code, which if you had a engine sticker (unlikely) or tag then you would be able to fine LXT on it. Its a verification system for cars that have multiple engine options..
