#1 is closest to the front of the car. And on the side of the spark plu holes there is a "T" and an "L" for trailing and leading plugs.

With any engine, cylinder/chamber 1 is the closest to the front, or the end with the crank pullies (for FWD/transverse mount applications).

Ask a dumb question, get a dumb answer. Instead of getting humiliated, you could have grabbed a copy of the FSM (via the FAQ @ the top), and figured it out for yourself. Now, I know how easy it is to post a dumb question for the sake of posting, but come on.

missed that part.
To be honest, i flipped through it and could not find that information as well, but logically it would seem that the #1 is the first from front to back. Front = 1, etc.

We're done here.

A simple "rotor number 1 is the front rotor" would have sufficed.
