I recently bought a used 2006 S60 from a private seller.
He had no records on whether the timing belt and water pump had been replaced at the recommended interval.
I am trying to get a date off the water pump to see if this is the original, or much newer as would be the case if it had been replaced with the timing belt at about 100,000 miles.The timing belt is a Volvo belt with no date on it.
The car has over 140K on it now.
With a camera, I captured the following numbers off the water pump body:
Time clock with 04 (left side) and 05 (right side), plus clock pointing to hour of manufacture, I figure.
Also another number: 2/2, molded in another place.
Other numbers look like part numbers: 30713570, and C205W213, are in tiny dots tapped into the body.
Can someone help me interpret the mfg. date from these??
Thanks,
Mark R

 

I suspect the "clocks" are indicating year and month of manufacture. That is, the pump was built sometime in 2004.

 

Thanks, Paul. This makes sense to me, too. It looks like I will be replacing belt and pump and idlers this week. On closer observation, I see bits of shiny metal- possibly from the idler and tensioner??
