I would like to know when my engine (not car) was manufactured. Bar code and number are readily found, so that's no problem. Is there a decoder for these serial numbers? Mine is a 2012. Thanks
What, Where and Info about VIN Edit: Nevermind. Now I see you are looking for Engine-specific info. Not general VIN info. My mistake.
This helped me avoid a scam from a junkyard. I can't post a link because I'm a new member but: 1. google search: "understanding prius engine numbers" 2. the click on the link that has "proxyparts" in its name that will bring you to a helpful table
