Reference Details
- Common issue
- Date-coded components later than the Fisher Body tag date, or far outside the expected pre-assembly window, require car-specific documentation before being treated as original to a W46 car.
- Confidence
- documented
- Correct value
- Component date codes should fall within a few weeks before the Fisher Body tag assembly-date code; H/OCA describes the Fisher Body tag date as a three-character month/week code such as 11B.
- Where to check
- Compare component date codes on dated parts with the Fisher Body tag assembly-date code on the cowl/firewall.
