I’ve been trying to figure out the headbolt situation on my car. can you please run my engine number and get back to me.
engine number : 156985 60061124
i believe it’s past the issue engine number but just want to make sure with a professional so it’s 100%.
thank you

It is past the switchover by 466 engines. Last 5 digits of VIN need to be 60658 or higher.

Hello,
As many of you know, I have been providing Datacard info to many members interested in their build sheet, or to verify engine serial number.
I received a PM from a member today who indicates he has a "late 2010 C63". The Datacard for the VIN he provided shows a delivery date of 11/24/2010. The Datacard indicates the engine number is over 4,000 engines beyond serial number 156983 60 060658 where the new head bolts were employed.
Since we've believed that all 2010 and older, and some 2011s were in the affected range, I'm confused about how this one could be outside the range. I did a search to find out which digit in the VIN corresponds to the model year, but had no luck getting a clear answer.
Anyone have any thoughts on all of this?
Thanks,
Joe
