    So I've been looking into swapping engines and read the whole tutorial and I seem to have a problem, I cannot find the file.
    So i'm hoping to swap the LeGran engine into something but when I go into the vehicles folder there is no LeGran folder (there are only a few official vehicle folders like fullsize and midsize and when I click on them it only shows modded files). The only one I can find is in the cache.0.10.0.1 folder but that doesn't have any of the information the tutorial says I need, I've verified all game files and the car works perfectly fine in game except that there I had an issue a few days ago where there were two LeGrans in the vehicle selector which both worked fine. I've removed I think all LeGran mods and will remove all mods if necessary (I have over 300 mods though so that would suck) but was just wondering if anyone else has experienced this? I can provide screenshots if you want
    --- Post updated ---
    Also I'm going to add I have show hidden files on

    Which 'vehicles' folder are you looking at? (Copy full path for that folder).

    If you are looking for the original files, those would be inside the game's installation folder (If you use Steam, it would be Steam/Steamapps/Common/BeamNG.Drive/content/vehicles)
    Do not modify any of those files directly, make copies in Documents/BeamNG.Drive/vehicles/<<vehiclename>> and then do your edits.

    I was using OS (C:) > Users > Joe > Documents > BeamNG.Drive > vehicles but I do have the steam version so I'm gonna try and use the one you suggested

    That folder you went to is the 'userfolder' (same for any version of the game). That's just for the cache, mods, settings and similar stuff.
    All the game's files are in the installation folder instead.
