Way to know the health of a vehicle without entering it

battlefield-3

Is there a way to know the health of a vehicle without entering it? I know that if the vehicle is on fire, then its health must be very low. But apart from that?

And as an engineer, is there a way to know the current health?

For engineer: If you repair it you will see an round icon of the current health and total health, in the middle of the vehicle. However this is not clearly visible with all the icons in BF.
